Hello @seatsixtyone.bsky.social Help! On our way to install at Venice Biennale. Fine on Eurostar (below 85cm limit). Now told we can’t take trolleys or cardboard boxes on French trains. Is this correct? Would greatly appreciate your wisdom!🧐

Government may cap UK political donations to limit foreign influence Proposal comes after billionaire Elon Musk reportedly said he would donate £79m to Nigel Farage’s Reform UK party

‘UK Government may cap political donations to limit foreign influence’

A good start, but… why no mention of banning companies from making donations? That’s what @petergeoghegan.bsky.social says is needed to ensure Musk can’t donate vast sums to Farage

Street full of parked cars in Bordeaux France, Google photo from 2008. Same location in Bordeaux photo taken by me in 2023.

Before & After: I don’t think people realize the extent to which parked cars degrade public space.

Currently working on a third edition of #BiomimicryinArchitecture - a lot of people say "we are nature" so I am exploring what it means to design *as* nature
