Acid Renaissance: Arcana open My Acid Renaissance: Arcana exhibition opened on Friday evening, and it seems to be going well so far. I don’t want to speak too soon, but sales are looking good already - certainly enough to cover…

Didn't Google try this a few years ago, and all the people spotted wearing them were either avoided or got a slap?

"Fantastical" photographs in Hastings exhibition Paul Watson is exhibiting a selection of his fantastical photographs upstairs at 1200 Postcards on Queens Road in Hastings from August 1–24.

A short news item about my exhibition that starts tomorrow, in which I clumsily talk through a short video interview

I've hung my pieces ready for the exhibition to open at 1200 Postcards in Hastings on Friday at 6pm. I hope to see some of you there!

One Year in Hastings I moved to Hastings a year ago today, so it seems like a good time to look back on how it's gone so far. I haven’t made as much artwork in this first year in Hastings compared to previous years. Some…

New blog post: One Year in Hastings

New fun tradition launched for Hastings Pirates Day Hastings Pirate Day is introducing a fun new tradition to take part in this weekend

Local paper knows what it's doing. www.sussexexpress.co.uk/news/people/...

I really hope you enjoy the slower-but-richer flow of creativity that comes from your RSS reader!

Reading, thinking, doing Having narrowly avoided setting up a newsletter on Substack (well, a second newsletter) I’m going to use this blog for a similar purpose. Not least because the other day I read this… Ho…

BLOG POST: In lieu of a newsletter, here's what I've been reading, thinking, doing. (Now with 'newsletter' spelled correctly. Leaving the old one up to remember my shame.)

Yes, certainly. But the laws for sites where people (other than you as site owner) can't post are less restrictive than social media sites

Yes, that would be great!

I think we need to do more than just look forward to the future, though - I think we need to actively shape it, otherwise others will.

They form a self-mythology (from a cultural rather than a scientific/archaeological perspective), and yes, as such that self-mythology can be appropriated by the far-right

Yes, I think you're right, they are forms of cultural-emotional tethers - emotional-support monoliths, if you will :) - and the present (and future) will always be viewed with relation to what we cling to of the past

(timely serendipity of this UKLG quote appearing on my timeline)

No hard breaks, but sometimes there's a pause:

bsky.app/profile/legu...

That doesn't mean abandoning any attachments to the past, but I feel that we're trapped in some sort of thought experiment that has become an enclosed system that we can't break out of. I need to phrase this properly, but it'll probably take another blog post to explain properly

I do think that we need to be thinking more about the future, and not just the future as a carbon copy of now (but with a few extra tech marvels), but a future in a completely different shape
