Wooden

Thats AMazing!! Im gonna have to read up and find out how that works exactly. Yeh i got a good response from spyros about the video i gave a link to. Me and him have both said that their feels like a strong corrolation btw his work and our own. When i first watched it, it was as if he had taken the idea straight out of my mind. I think your obseversations of it are quite right, i think that its a project that he did in one day, all written filmed and edited in his office. yeh.. i love it! :)

I got some footage to show tomorrow by the way, just a screen test that i did with some reflections, nothing incredible, but might be a good starting point in for generating ideas.

Hi Matt

Hi matt, just 2 let you know I'm still reading the blog! just been busy coz i'm working late shifts..

thanks for that - it's "not my thing" so I wouldn't have looked at it, but I liked it. And in a way it's vaguely similar to the work I'm doing at the moment. Don't you think it's interesting that despite trying to be variant and experimental he still can't get out of the 'old-style' photo colour and the 'old style' furniture etc - which wouldn't have been apparent at the time..

ps. here's something. I just really like the concept - a wooden mirror!

Gary Hill - Around & About

I saw this ages ago, its very simple and playful, maybe not for everyone, but i really enjoyed it.
(no relation to anything, apart from wanting to post something.)

Paul - Setting up the last bits

This is what paul wrote back to me: Early next week would be best. Free till wed night then away. Let me know what would be best for you.

So when is best for everyone?

light and shadow

This is Hans Feldmann's work 'Shadowplay' - the toys are on turntables.
I also like this project: Light In The City by Alfredo Jaar

Quick update: Andrea; Ste; Florin, Spyros and myself went to 52 on Saturday. met Paul made some progress with installation of foyer piece and ideas for the ground floor space / windows / light.

On Monday Spyros & I met Trevor Johnson and Haider from Creative Lynx, had a chat about potential ideas and got their input. They gave us the link for their new website / blog: http://52studio.ning.com/
They are keen to use it both as a record of events and activities held at 52 as well as for sharing ideas.

If anyone is good at CAD they might be able to improve on my Blue Peter model:




See you tomorrow.
