Well sometimes one is preoccupied with higher thoughts and all that stuff… and sometimes it just comes down to ‘who knows a good joiner??’
I have only one visit left to Specials before I have to get stuck into the hard work of sifting though all the material I’ve acquired, and make some sense out of it all.
At this point the many practicals rear their heads, not least of which is that I need a good, reliable, preferably amiable and certainly talented joiner to build my video tower for me.
Now I don’t imagine it’s gonna be difficult for someone with a little experience to put together – just needs to be flat, serene and able to house the four wide-screen monitors we have to put in it. I did have a man lined up – but I get the feeling he got a better offer – as he never returned my call to action.
Perfect example of capitalism in all its’ glory, working at its’ rudest and most aggressively selfish.
Ok sorry – it’s christmas. Don’t over react… time to be a little more forgiving to the errant tradesman. Only dear, errant tradesman you have left me with a little problem.
I did ring the Baltic – thought they might have a list of people who they use – ‘oh yes’ said the lady on the telephone- I’ll get someone to get back to you. Of course they never did (oh sugar… there goes my chance of a one man show in the new year).
Right – back to being mr niceguy.. I really do understand.. I really do understand that there must be far more pressing problems at the Baltic at the moment…
** Note to self ** try not to mention names in the new year – progressing in the art world is hard enough without the need to exercise ones’ desert dry wit in some larger direction.
So I digress…
