RTomens, 2023 |
A print I made this afternoon, made from three street photos I took.

Since artwork by me is featured in the new edition of Maintenant magazine, along with less famous artists such as Raymond Pettibon, they asked me to perform at a launch party in London in September. I must resist the temptation to wear a Dada outfit. What I'd like to do is take along the big typewriter and create a piece 'live', with audience participation, but we'll see.

I was shocked this morning to hear a contemporary album that was great...no, it's not that I very rarely hear them, but few tick all the boxes as Unnatural Channel by Drew McDowall does. I like dark electronic music, which is a loose definition, I know. Oh, 'dark' has been big for years, yes, but few are as capable as McDowall when it comes to organising a limited sound palette so effectively. The whole atmosphere is spot on with its deep textures and minimal use of rhythm...imagine being chained in a cave on a distant planet with no light bar the occasional glow from the red eyes of a beast intent on sucking out your soul. Yes, it's that good.
