a
busy week included the last catalogue conversation seminar at Camberwell for the MA Book Art Course - https://www.slideshare.net/l.bicknell/21-01-20-catalogue-conversation it was
a little odd seeing 26 years of catalogues on a table - so many memories and
stories - running a storytelling workshop at NUA as part of developing so
called soft skills with the students - confidence is growing as they recognise their inherent skills deeply embedded within their internal file labelled transferable skills - I
have been invited to give a talk at Materials and Design Exchange 2020 by MaDE
this has involved trying to find a headshot as I don't possess such a
thing - see 70 images of me - odd I never realised that I looked so much like my mum -
meanwhile in 1965 Joseph Beuys held a performance attempted to explain pictures to a dead Hare 'coincidentally' a year before the event in a street in Coventry that no
longer exists young parents held a small child and filmed him stroking a dead
rabbit so he could experience the feeling of fur before it was made into stew - can I
claim copyright from the Beuys estate? finally as part of my general 'get rid of it all' clear out I came across my notes from the first ever book arts conference - feel free to take a peek at the past here https://www.slideshare.net/secret/z5E5tJGV4wlC1A
