Right so far i've finished 1st year at grays...passed the year so pretty chuffed i've gotten into sculpture! Summer's started and already i'm bored.....pretty glad ive been given a summer project to do as i wouldn't know what to do with myself :(
Anyways the brief we were given is pretty vague... just telling me what sorts of galleries i should attend ,newspapers i should read and radio channels i should listen to and so on. So far i've signed up to some mailing lists at some of my favourite galleries in Edinburgh (my home town) :) as im goin to be staying here till september time.
Exhibitions i will definately be at are
the city and stars exhibition at the Stills gallery
Johan Grimonprez exhibiton at the fruitmarket gallery
Both the all sided games and the Torsten Lauschmann exhibition at the collective gallery
There's so many i want to see but these are a must at the moment and i'll be sure to blog on what i think of them..

Stolen Horse from sam spreckley on Vimeo.

An animation by Spreckley... completely different and didnt even seem as though it was by the same guy. All the same its a nice song and it makes me happy...hope you like :)

Sam Spreckley

Thought study (remix) from sam spreckley on Vimeo.

Was at the Aberdeen Gallery last week and came accross a really interesting video by a guy called Sam Spreckley. Actually love his videos after watching a few on vimeo. The start of the video kinda reminds me of the ring where youd watch that creepy video and get a phonecall afterwards telling you you'd die 7 days later. I love the editing and how eery the video is.... I was pretty speechless after seeing it for the first time but I feel so inspired to actually do some work... He's definately become a favourite of mine.

The Start

First post.. cant believe it's taken me a year to finally get this started... It's guna be good so keep on reading...it'l be fun you'l love it.
