A New Way of Looking at Where We’ve Been

Tinkering with gnuplot again tonight, waiting for Soph to come back from Essen, I was using the charting software to visualise the list of locations in our gps database, sorted by longitude which gives a list of locations we’ve been too from West to East. Here’s the chart …

Walk with Martin in Albrechtshof

Who gets paid?

I was having a think in the bath just now after a long hard but enjoyable day installing our part of the group show that opens tomorrow (see our news page for more) about how artists get paid. I’m thinking about it because of a conversation today with Elly …

Square Eyes

Didn’t turn the computer on again after dinner tonight (writing this with a pencil in my notebook). It’s much better and certainly slows time down - the evening seems to stretch in front of you like a cat - in contrast to an evening in front of a screen which …

Here’s a quick video hacked together. It plays the animation twice, zooming into …

Pay no attention to the man behind the Blog

OK guys, I’m thinking that this blog needs a bit of lightening up. I was really delighted when the knitter behind the Moustache Yarn Bomb commented on the post featuring her work. Here’s her excellent blog. In the spirit of revelation and openness, I offer you a picture …

GPS Workshop in Kiel

I’m having a good time, despite being nervous at first, here in Kiel where I’m giving a week-long GPS workshop at the Muthesius Kunsthochschule (Art School). Ines Lindner, the head of the Forum there, who invited me, has been generously driving Anette Rose (who is also running a …
