Sitting down in the Tate

[juliet]

On Friday evening whilst doing ART SCIENCE at the Tate (which was much fun), I discovered that they have stools available (possibly from the visitor information place on level 3) which you can take round with you & use to sit down when you need to! This is V Useful Information especially if, like me, you have to give up on the Art after about an hr as a rule because your feet hurt.

ION: currently in the Tate there is an absolutely fantastic video piece called Video Quartet, by Christian Marclay. Four screens, each showing a series of clips (all only a handful of seconds long) from a variety of Hollywood films; put together so that the soundtrack (& the visual impact) of all 4 work together to create something else. Very much worth a visit; I was really, really impressed.

My weekend involved Art Science as mentioned above; lots of watching of Firefly at nou's; lots of (largely unsuccessful) bike fettling (but I did get my lovely lovely new Solidlights on! belated Xmas present from the splendid uon, & VERY BRIGHT AND SHINY INDEED); a party at Silk's in Battersea; and PIE.

I am now at work. Boo to werk.

Boxes of Stuff?

There's a little room with boxes of stuff in rows on one wall: it's inspired by the Freud museum, iirc. Very cool. Particularly the devotional light bulbs.
