I have been in touch with a lot of new acquaintances through eLists with which I am registered [such as Sonic Arts Network, Phonography.org, Rhizome, Fibreculture etc]. I mentioned this project and I have had a lot of interesting responses […]
Since November 2006, Arts Council England has been asking all across the land to add their views on the public value of the arts.
This was the first time I've been to Ackerstrasse which is surprising as it is just one street over parallel to Kastienallee that I go up and down all the time. It is funny how one sticks to the known […]

Started on some new work today which I have been planning for a while but have just not had the opportunity to actually put into practice. It was wonderful to make a start. When I am planning work I think […]
