Using Autoethnographic Abstracted Materialism, 2050:2100 weaponises art and collaboration to resist the void and establish a network of Creative Kindness. My work is driven by the impending Geopolitical Climate chaos of biome degradation, resource scarcity, mass migration and societal collapse. Using up precious resources, I asked A.I. when the Earth would become uninhabitable: ‘Predicting an…

My art practice is THE NETWORK… The following 3 points summarise the three learning outcomes of my MA. I’ve been enabled to take a long hard conceptual look at the last 2 years… …the rest is all storytelling… 1. Realisation Over the course of my MA journey, I have developed a body of work that…

ChatBox is a 2023 trained AI model, so this could be an AI hallucination, but I rather think it isn’t. Current estimates suggest warming of 3.6°C is more likely as climate policies are being stalled or reversed. The IPCC also outlines a worst-case scenario where global temperature could rise by 4.4°C by 2100 if fossil…

Trigger warning: Flashing images, themes of Climate Chaos, War, Death, Global Anihilation, Sex… sadly no rock and roll… some funky music though… A Massive Amount of Community Art Activism and fish… An Agender Penguin, a Non-binary Polar Bear and a Nasty Oily Orca… and a lot of Art… nice… https://youtu.be/dHpbdGRtDKk?si=HUTOS8h3SXGptsHl

Here, I look at some of the images from the sketchbook Our Struggle (German translation: Unser Kampf). They are not finished but its a good start. Select the first image, press on the i icon, and you can swipe through all the images and read the comments as you go along… Select the first image,…

This was very much a working Tutorial, and after our situational awareness catch-up, we got down to the business of the grad show. We discussed the current state of trans politics and how that affects my art practice, my future PhD, its associated art/network, and myself personally. First, you are what you are; none of…

The interesting part of an autoethnographic art practice is the minutiae of self-examination. On Friday, I had a meeting with my prospective PhD supervisors. As always, it was a Wow moment. The stuff we talked about can’t help but affect my art practice; it is impossible for it not to. Pain is an unwelcome companion…

I thought I’d reflect on the Miro feedback, I will listen to the what worked for me later… (with a box of tissues) Reading the Miro comments was fascinating because some of you understood my practice, and some didn’t! This means that, in real terms, I haven’t fully explained it. That’s pretty important for me!…

Learning Outcome 1: Where did this start? What happened? Where are we going?… I started in unit one with this diagram, and I’ve circled in red the areas that have changed. I acknowledged in the first unit assessment that my practice would change. My Art Practice is The Network. A network is rarely fixed; it…

I am a self-styled Contemporary Dadaist. I try to make art without making art, without creating more waste and consuming more resources. I try to use up what I already have and reuse everything I can. I have, like the planet, finite resources. My art practice is networking and weaponising art to Save the Earth…

Yesterday was the end of the first year of my MA. We ended our year with a Clay-focused afternoon. Of course, like anything on this course, nothing is as it seems, and it was indeed very little to do with clay. Possibility would be my takeaway from this year. Like a block of Red Clay…

First will there be a future? Yes if we are brave and bold… The Earth will exceed 1.5c warming. The IPCC report says large parts of the Earth will become uninhabitable shortly. Which means mass migration, government instability, civil unrest and war. The climate is not only getting hotter, but it is becoming unstable. If…

I’m going to tell you a story. I am always doing that, but this is to give you context. A long time ago, a junior British Airways airline pilot (me) was posted to the Boeing 757/767 fleet. This fleet operated on ‘bidline’ rules. Each month, each pilot had to bid for the trips they wanted.…

My daily digest of Emerging Technology consists of reading and note-taking on the loo. There is lots to read, and the rabbit holes are many. The definition that the European Parliament used for its latest legalisation (the only one in the world at the moment) for ‘controlling’ AI is as follows… “For a given set…

One person connected is the next link in the network… It is the possibility, the thought planted…If you are reading this, you are now part of the network… The mycelium network, in biological terms, refers to the underground network of fungal threads called mycelium. Mycelium is the vegetative part of a fungus, consisting of a…

Desensitize. To unimaginable violence. Alliterate our stark inequalities. Proliferate our vehemence to sodality. Insignificant to all. Love redressing our nugatory. Our euphoria short lived but precious. We sell our attachments dearly. The pain of loss. There is a temporal beauty in that…
