V&A Friday Late: Back to the 80's

Was a fantastic experience performing in the V&A on Friday, especially the Shrine as I'd got a lot of inspiration from there to make it (that and Indiana Jones films!)
I've never performed more than one vacuum piece in one night and I did three. Feel like I've only just recovered. Was chuffed so many friends came to watch and more importantly help me get in and out of the pieces, was nice my dad came along too. A great night!

Now I'm busy making my new piece for Rubber Cult in December, as I missed the last one I've promised to do something extra special, no pressure then!

I can't see anything in the Angels, it wasn't until I saw the pics that I
realized how many people there were gathered around!

Making a movie!

On Sunday me and Dee O'Connell went out on location into the Lea Valley to start making a new film 'Angels For Machines', we're shooting on a wind-up Russian 16mm film camera.
The White Angel is the main character, all my other Angels will be making an appearance along with some brand new pieces made special! Getting the first rolls developed this week, can't wait to get back out shootin' again soon!!!

 For some reason this image makes me think of Princess Mononoke.
Dee did all the camera work but I'm just having a nosy through the lens. The shoe lace is holding the lens on properly, one of the location pins broke off :0
