    • The Real Experiment November 4, 2009
      Allan Kaprow again. One characteristic of the lifelike art that was emerging in the sixties: “Various performative modes became the effective way to deal with this shift to the actual environment. Performing was doing something, not acting in theater – moving furniture, for example, just to do it, or because you were changing apartments.” T […]

    • DO SOMETHING DONE October 31, 2009
      After some eleventh hour InDesign frantickity the book I’ve been making is finished. As I’ve been working on it a couple of things have been running through my mind. The Envelope Constructions video I made in 2006 has the same feeling of purposeful inconclusiveness – of working intentionally towards an end point which is in no [...]

      This is our new home. In a complete change of everything, this home consists of a white studio. It means rather than making artwork in a domestic space as I have been for the past few years, I’ll be doing domestic things in an art-making space. It will be very good to see what becomes of [...]

      I found out this week that a book I’m making is going to be published by (un)limited store in December. The book will be launched in December at ArtistBook International at the Centre Pompidou in Paris, and before that there’s lots of work to do. It’s a kind of instruction manual and I’m calling it [...]

Tights on Old Street

Posted on October 25, 2007 by Tamarin

I went to a private view last night for a small exhibition just off Old Street. The four artists involved have been working on a collaborative sculpture and textile project for the past eighteen months, and this show marks the second of three temporary, planned pauses in their activity. This is the stock-take pause.
The [...]

Axisweb: The love affair between the museum and the arts of sound.

Posted on September 3, 2007 by Tamarin

While I’m on the subject of the Funny Noises exhibition, I found an article on axisweb.org the other day by Lina Dzuverovic about the relationship between the museum and what she prefers to call the ‘arts of sound’. Lina co-founded Electra and has worked for The Lux Centre, the ICA and Mute Magazine, and her [...]

Review: Funny Noises

Posted on September 2, 2007 by Tamarin

Exhibition: Funny Noises
Brown Gallery, 207 Whitecross St, EC1Y 8QP
July 27 – Sept 1
I caught the last day of Funny Noises yesterday, an understated show that describes itself as “an egalitarian presentation of selected experimental recordings from 1924-1981”. Although walking in there it feels about as egalitarian as an aggressively independent record shop, it’s a curatorially [...]
