What's the difference between 'Spring Watch' and 'Spring Voyeur' i ask you..

Hello pottery wheel my old friend, it's been a long time! 👋

Lovely I hear you say, yawn...

However.....

You may notice my wheel is going clockwise... It's stuck going the wrong direction. I am a right-handed person with a wheel that is only working for a left-hander ..🤪😬

Feels more 'Generation Game' than 'Ghost' atm...

Am trying out different types of clay for plant pot designs for the Robotany project. They will house 'Plant Microbial Fuel Cells'. Testing to see if different clays make a difference in energy production. Throwing 'off the hump'.

From a series called 'mindbombs' I made last year. This one's called 'Cluster', Christ I didn't know how difficult that name was going to be, I've been tempted to change it, but decided not to.

It's £200 and obviously all of this goes in support. I will pay for P&P in UK.

More details:
In response to the war in Ukraine, Artist Support Pledge founder Matthew Burrows and artist curator Zavier Ellis of Ellis Smith Projects have come together to launch Ukraine Support Pledge.

Payment info on the second image says to donate though 'Just Giving'. BUT please consider (if in UK) going through @disastersemergencycommittee instead as UK government has announced they will match donations to DEC pound for pound, so your money will be doubled.

Cluster - 2021, Smoke, iron gall ink and graphite on 3mm Canson Conservation Board. 25x24cm

'Bristol Hum Research Centre' .. Look what I found

'Bristol Hum Research Centre' .. Look what I found mooching around the interwebs!

Can't believe my luck with this book, a fab source of experiments. Finding the 'facts' behind a spooky source of the Bristol Hum. 👻👽

I've got a thing about diagrams, think you can see that from the last couple of drawings on my feed. Some great ones here. Love the image with the people standing around in a circle, obviously a performance piece in the making. Connect everyone as a hum (hum-an?) circuit. As defence against or to call it forth!!

Looking forward to cracking on with the Bristol Hum Research Centre project at Shoe Zone, Broadwalk Shopping Centre, Bristol thanks to @hyphastudios

WAYFARER II - schematic for earth microbes as future tools, compass, oracle, lodestone, spaceship, explorer, magnetite magic, vibrant matter etc....

WAYFARER 1 - microbes as compass, (as oracle?) Well, they've been around a bloody long time, must have some wisdom.....

"tell me o worldly wise ancient microbe" ...what are next weeks lottery numbers??

Future tools. Playing around with making stuff up.

Following on from last post that it turns out that the microbes in my Microbial fuel cells form magnety magnetite over time in natural habitat (image 2).

Wonder if they have homing instinct....

Doing a series of collages using close-ups of microbey droplets of a few posts ago (image 3) mixed with made up diagrams from various detector instruments, with made up bits...

MUD MICROBES MAKE MAGNETS aka LODESTONES = ancien

MUD MICROBES MAKE MAGNETS aka LODESTONES = ancient compass.

Some microbes are 'earth formers.' In their natural habitat, the same Geobacter bacteria in my muddy Microbial Fuels Cells form Magnetite over time. It's other name being Lodestone.

Lodestones are naturally magnetized rock and were used as the first compasses 'back in the day'. Lode meaning, "journey, way" in middle English.

image is of a Lodestone I bought on ebay 'cos couldn't resist having one. Not hugely strong magnet - just about holding up a couple of staples.

Also bought some powdered as I was curious to see if it's added to clay will it make it more homely for them!!

Anyone who could be arsed to read to the end gets this large diamond 💎 and a well-done sticker from me.😄
