I had an accident with some printer's ink and it completely randomly landed in this screaming face pattern. I thought it rather beautiful. ...

Performance artist Mark McGowan plans to leave six taps running for a year at secret London locations as a protest against private control of water in the UK. Last year McGowan left a tap running in a south London gallery, but bowed to pressure to turn it off after a month. That stunt used 800,000 litres of water, and angered many Thames Water customers and gallery visitors - some of whom turned ...

I've posted about Channel 101 a couple of times in the Linklog but I really believe that they deserve more than that. If you haven't experienced it yet (and you really must), 101 is a sort of playground for wannabe film-makers. How it works is: People send in a five minute 'pilot' for a new show. All the pilots are screened to a live audience of 400 at a cinema in LA The audience votes on which ...

Hey peeps, There's been this '20 questions' musical meme going around a bit, I think I got tagged for it a couple of times, and I decided to podcast it rather than just write it down- that way you get to listen to some music after I've told you what songs are behind the questions.

Hmm...I guess I meant "Is the poisoning effect of alcohol on my liver better or worse for me than whatever is bad in Coke?" but, y'know, this makes me feel slight ...

The opening credits to The Simpsons...IRL. ...

I'd better tell you about this film Mirrormask quick smart, because it seems like the sort of film that'll drop out of its limited distribution in about two weeks- catch it while you can. Mirrormask is, as anyone with even a scintilla of decent popculture knowledge will already know, the brainchild of Neil Gaiman and David McKean, both of Sandman fame. And that's basically all you need to know- ...

It's been so long since I've actually gone and seen a play that I actually had to create a special category for it just now. And I'm living in what must be the most heavily play-saturated city in the world. I really must do better. Anyway, last night I went and saw my friend Helena performing in Poet #7, a very odd and interesting play by Australian author Ben Ellis (who I met afterwards and was ...
