Movable tip
Black and white photo of a movable tip at Cardiff docks. It's a huge structure for tipping the coal out of railway wagons

We were somewhere around Barstow on the edge of the desert when the Imodium began to take hold

reading moby-dick and getting brainwashed by Big Spermaceti
"I like reading because there are no ads in books" Oh, my sweet summer child. There's plenty of ads in them. Brands pay good money to popular authors for product placement.

This place needs some Innocuous Discourse pronto. Quote this with a take that’s not political or aggressive

we're looking into it
big hole in the street, a meticulous rectangle, vertical walls of brown earth, a wooden ladder going down

If your Robin Hood isn't a camp, clearly bisexual, polyamorous tart in bright green tights I'm not interested.

Shadow of a person with arms held out like penguin flippers, cast onto the middle of a sunlit patch of brown leaves which form a wall alongside the pavement. There's also a small round blue and white 'cyclists & pedestrians' sign on a very tall pole

Artists! BlueSky is the perfect place to socialize and shoot the breeze. I'm creating a starter pack of artists who are open to questions and chatting about art (their own and art in general) without making anyone feel stupid or guilted into buying something.
Comment to be on this list

Back at work after 2 weeks and am massively resenting having to do this pointless bollocks lol. This is a step on from "can't be arsed"

YELLOW THINGS
Bright yellow plastic roadworks barriers, a reflective yellow pavement road sign and a truck with yellow bits, all lit by low winter sun.

RED THINGS
A scaffolded stack of white frames or something like that, on top of a big red metal container on a building site, in warm low winter afternoon sun. The bottom half of the stack is fenced round with that pinky red plastic mesh stuff.

The colours of these bricks 💥🤌
A disorganised pile of a dozen or so clay bricks - probably the last few on a pallet - just visible over the top of a wooden fence on a building site. It's about 3pm, early January, clear bright day, and the low sun is bringing out their luscious red-brown colours

Photograph taken on 11th February 2022 of a teaspoon on a square plastic garden table. It's night and the aforementioned are lit by a torch. The spoon is convex side up and looks like it might be crawling along by flexing it's neck

Another fantastic film in the Visions of Paradise series about the irrepressible Tressa “Grandma” Prisby & her bottle village, which started with creating the perfect place for a single pencil & grew into an extraordinary expansive environment of colourful scavenged glass

One more for the watch list. I love that there is always one more telly series or film from this period of this type. It's like there are still folks living in the UK 70s/80s making new ones, too late for their own time but knowing us lot in the future will be digging it.

This might seem niche but it's a wonderful forensic account of one of the big ideas of public housing that didn't work out too well in practice. (Quarry Hill, Leeds, gets a mention.)

Earlier this year, I descended into the bowels of the Barbican to take a look at the bespoke plumbing system for kitchen sink drainage, known as the Garchey.

Red and yellow things
A line of seven large red boxes, possibly heavy duty batteries for building site equipment A bunch of red metal barriers and doorways stacked up against a grey corrugated metal container or cabin A skip, seen end on. The end we can see is painted yellow and it has been filled with all sorts of building site crap, including one of those red metal barriers.

Back at the building site, pure Anthony Caro stuff going on
A nice length of metal shaped into a girder-type beam or maybe the outer casing of a large conduit, at a pleasing angle in relation to the objects around, including one of those red metal waist-high barriers. The beam projects out over a shallow trench.
