So this morning I invited myself to an interview. I uploaded my speech to Otter Ai. A new door has opened. I’m capable of writing and expressing my thoughts, but can often find it hard to put down to paper my ideas for a funding statement in the way I find as lucid when spoken.

Well, that's a first. My quote post of a Techmeme post with my commentary ended up on the front page of the website. 😳

One of my oldest, and indeed most prominent of memories (also a crucible moment) is the use of a pencil. Very briefly recalled in my next journal. To this day I remain positively transfixed by them. I have very limited use of pens.

A month ago, in the middle of the night, I had a fever dream of a zine idea based on a song my son and I sing on the way to school. Got the proof copy in the mail today. Feels good.

Choosing to write monthly journals has been one of the greatest things in telling my story, but I find writing words incredibly difficult! I‘m more grateful than ever to all who have read so far. Thank you! Journal Nr.3 (Influnce) as part of My ‚Abandoned Archive‘ is out on Dec.15. 🙏🏻

Black water. I sat and imagined the deep. Below the surface of a deep reservoir in the moors of England a white sheet dances and pulsates in the distance.

This flowing line guides user’s through a building steeped in history and in the present for me as an artist. This staircase, of this floor, of this building will always be significant as it has given me more as an artist than England ever has. #Artist #Photograph #Berlin
