So today I found out that my TED talk โ€˜This is What a Digital Coup Looks Likeโ€™ was TEDโ€™s most watched talk of the year.

Itโ€™s sort of amazing & terrifying. Because this *is* what a digital coup looks like.

An image of Paris Hilton, onstage in front of a crowd, hands in air, in a long pink skirt and a t-shirt that has black text against a white background, with Wes Streeting's face badly superimposed over hers and the t-shirt text crudely doctored to say "STOP BEING MENTALLY ILL." 

The original image became a meme about 10 years ago, with the text saying "STOP BEING POOR", though this itself was a photoshop job, it actually read "STOP BEING DESPERATE." 

No you're supposed to be writing.

Hi all, everyone should read this because while ACE has announced a delay and consultation to their proposed changes, what was leaked about what was going to be put in place from April 1 would have been catastrophic and the end for many companies and a migraine for NPOs too.

The reports about changes to Arts Council Englandโ€˜s eligibility for Project Grants is going to rock the industry.

Should be made public in the next 2 weeks but crikey, it looks bleak for artists and independent organisations not in receipt of ACE regular funding.

Review: Bad Science at HOME is 'a chaotic but brilliant political satire that hits all the right notes' Bad Science at HOME is a fast-paced, darkly satirical comedy that hilariously skewers British politics with sharp improv and chaotic energy

Have been quiet on here, but Iโ€™ve been lead artist on my first show and Iโ€™ve got my first review. Words cannot describe the whirlwind Iโ€™ve been on this month and this is just the best outcome.
