there has been something niggling me about the aesthetic of the white pipe it jars a little – perhaps due to its sterility and lack of prescence I have been investigating and considered spraying or making my own pipes but have found some matt black piping and accessories which give the work more authority.

discovered book: Psycho Buildings – Brian Dillon, Professor Jane Rendell, Ralph Rugoff, 2008 which has some great work by artists in relationship with architecture including Rachel Whiteread, Mike Nelson, Los Carpinteros what interests me is the correlation between emotion and place – inanimate and animate – I reflect back to Hitchcock and the presence and […]
Wizard of Oz have analysed the film – and timecoded relevant/interesting parts (in orange book) need to play with sound – look at Audacity (free software) re-reading Wizard of Oz by Salman Rushdie exploring the Sublime and the Domestic door slamming – recurrent in beginning scene sound of final scene is key to research ‘Occupied […]

Exploring this issue that underlies much of my work and I wondered about the instruction of how to deal with loss – funny how we subscribe to a set of instructions to ensure we are grieving adequately! So – is it 5 or 7 stages? Five = denial, anger, bargaining, depression, acceptance Seven = shock/disbelief, […]
all set up for assessment FA301 in my space – most work is accompanied by either sound or film (found on this blog)
