Michel Gondry






“I always believed they were just two big concrete rain catchers hanging on the canopy, so I was dismayed when I discovered that they were actually attached to the ground. Those were my youth landmarks,” Michel Gondry

 As the hangovers of discourse from Thursday night are now met by the
traditional hangover of a sunny Saturday morning; I felt it was the
right time to begin the online discourse that will hopefully
supplement our critical forum 5-35.

 The feedback that I have received so far seems good, focusing mainly
on a constructive yet enjoyable time. I definitely felt this was a
warm meeting of peers and hopefully friends, and was certainly not the
critical Tomatina that a 'crit' can so often be. I'd like to thank
Joanna, Josh, Laura and Alan for sharing their practices with us, and
everyone else for attending and contributing.

 It would be great if this email stream [now blog] could now become a way of
sharing the referrals that were maybe illegibly written down in the
heat of conversation and the brilliant eureka moments that came to us
in the car ride home. I'd like to start the ball rolling with a
recommendation for no one in particular; an article in this month's
Art Monthly called 'Paul O'kane on making art'. Its on the first page
but sadly isn't available online. There is however a copy in the SSW
library.
