Art Chat2 was fun - great crowd and lots of questions. I even managed to read the Pall Mall Gazette by candlelight! Huge thanks to my special guest Luca Nasciuti for coming along and talking so eloquently about his sound art.
More in the new year.
Art Chat reconvenes this evening at Chats Palace in Hackney. We'll be chatting about art and music, and exploring soundscapes. There might be a bit of declamation, you never know.
7pm in The Library Bar.
