some interesting teaching over the past 6 days – a workshop session that focused on supporting the students develop of themselves as a brand with year 3 textile students at NUA – http://www.slideshare.net/l.bicknell/009-possible-branding-10-02-14
an exploration of our relationships to audiences through the objects we make with MA Book Art students. http://www.slideshare.net/l.bicknell/012-relationships-with-audience and working with Open College of the Arts students – the future!! On ideas around integrating research into practice http://www.slideshare.net/l.bicknell/research-process-and-practice-final-year-10-2-14-31131182
In terms of films there are a couple of recommendations – if you want a cosy evening try the latest Richard Curtis film – about time http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2194499/?ref_=nm_flmg_wr_3 an interesting premise but unsure if the ‘science’ stacks up!  and an oddball one with Terance Stamp and Kurt Russell – The Art of the Steal - http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2172985/?ref_=nm_flmg_act_3  – it’s a fun ride.  
Meanwhile some un-owned, unloved and generally crap architecture from a visit to Coventry.
