A Rock in the Desert
Hey Daniel, I wrote your name on a
rock and put it in the Mojave Desert.
This really happened.

A Mouse That Eats Cat Food
This mouse is a fast mouse. There is no noise while it creeps down, only the sound of shifting biscuits when it jumps back up into the hole. For a while I thought it was invisible.

Conference: Day 1
Today we had coffee in a dark alley. We walked to the museums. Some guys tried selling us some shit or some hunger something but they didn't make eye contact with me so I won. Smiling. They yelled out to my back "I like your bag!" Ha ha, I know. The galleries were both installing. There were grids of numbered boxes with empty sheaths of bubble wrap formerly containing the ribs of a giant metal snake looking thing. I checked an email with this lady and she said meet for dinner tonight or tomorrow maybe. I wrote back: tomorrow. We visited each gift shop in the cultural centre: Gallery, Museum, Goma and Library. Scott liked the Library, I liked the Gallery. At 3pm we took the Beenleigh line out to Woodbridge then bussed to Ikea Logan City for dinner. I took pictures of furniture for future studio, picked out bookends and shoved pairs and triplets of pencils in my bag. The place had a lot of signs letting us know about the surveillance. I put two extra cushions on the couch I wanted. Nobody said anything. We were back at Central Station by 7.30pm so we went to see a movie. It made me not care too much for correct grammar anymore. All bloody and double crossing itself our stove says it's 3.27 but it's only nearly midnight.

Hub Drawing Panorama
I took a panoramic photograph of the research space then printed it out. I took the print to the research space, trimmed it then stuck it together. Nice. I started to write out some notes on the print about some things I was reading. Ekphrasis is very hard to understand. I thought some spacial awareness exercise like this would help me. Good.
Turns out, all I could think about was an earlier conversation about a movie called octoshark or sharktopus or something.
Research is fun.
Long Hub Drawing
There is a special research place that was empty and so I used it a couple of times to make some drawings.

The Angel of Arte Povera
The Angel of Arte Povera is a humble christmas decoration created in the studio during a Christmas-in-July celebration which happened in August one year. The skirt was a semi circle cut out of the packaging for a gluestick and folds back on itself to feature the inverted euro hole as a motif. I like this failed attempt at an anti-shopping joke (it cant be absolutely against shopping if it includes shopping!) and engaging with the detritus created by the most wonderful time of the year!
I was trying to mess around with mirroring the Angel for a christmas card when these monstrous images appeared.

East Perth Research
This is parts of a research proposal to do some reading of public spaces in East Perth.
 |
| Claisebrook Cove, East Perth: you could be anywhere in the world. I know some people and they probably think this is a good thing if they think about it at all. I think it is a boring thing. Quietly characterless. WE NEED SOME MORE BUILDINGS UP IN HERE TREES WATER BUILDINGS TREES BUILDINGS WATER BUILDINGS |
 |
| Formerly the Best Part of East Perth Even |
 |
| Proposal to make a map of some people's idosyncratic movements through the urban environment. Its a large scale masking tape drawing. Yo |
 |
| Consideration of alternative mapping strategies. |
 |
| the other one. Old Work: J H Richardson Projection. Map of the World. Not really good at remembering things. This work had a lot of swearing it was incorrect in nearly every possible way. |
