laura_seabrook | THIS IS NOT ART? (Reply)

This is Not Art has been on since Tuesday, and ends on Monday (a public holiday).

I've been focussed on my artwork earlier in this week, otherwise, well actually I just can't be bothered much this year. I had a look at Saturday's events, and the only two things that interest me are

Illustration for graphic novels - a master-class with Shaun Tan (who did The Arrival, which I've read and absolutely loved) at noon - 2pm, and
Festival Club live comics jam at 6pm - 8pm, though it looks like the jam is only between the five artists listed

As usual, there's a bloody long gap between things of interest.

And as before, it's a matter of getting there, and getting back. This would be a good use for the scooter, in that the easiest thing to do is ride it to Glendale / Train Station (Cardiff?), secure it, and then take the bus/train in and back. Hmmm, debating, debating.

The Sunday program has

Zine and Independent Press Fair at noon - 6pm,
Post-paper publishing 3:30pm - 4:30pm , and
Open Source software for community projects at 4pm - 5pm.

Not so sure about the last two. Normally I'll go to the zine fair, but the last two years haven't been really good experiences (back in 2005 I had stuff to sell, and no one bought much and I got a panic attack instead). Got to figure this out.
