Podcast

I am currently listening to the podcast from BBC4 called the History of the World in 100 Objects.
It is based on items found in the British Museum, and each week a different object is discussed. I'm finding this really interesting, and would recommend it to anyone.

Science Museum

Current exhibition on at the Science museum about the future fuels we could potentially be using. Reminded me of something you might see at an RCA show. Some interesting ideas.

Chinese New Year

Roundabout sculpture

A tree in Heron Quays that I saw today. Traffic lights are constantly changing.

Nana

I spent a week up at my Nana's looking after her as she has just come out of hospital. She has a lovely big garden that is far too big for her. But it takes some nice photos.

Ofili

Article from the Evening Standard on 25/01/10 on Chris Ofili.

Are you average?

"Are you average?

We’re looking for the average British man and woman to become sculptures in our revamped Who am I? gallery

These average Brits – whose vital statistics most closely match those published in the latest NHS health study – will have their life-sized naked bodies scanned and replicated in paper using the latest rapid prototyping technology, also known as 3D printing.

The life-sized paper people will then appear in the Who am I? gallery, where the latest developments in brain science and genetics are explored through a mixture of interactive exhibits, object-rich displays and artworks. The existing gallery will remain open until 4 January and the revamped gallery will open in summer 2010."
