John Russel,
from 30th June at East-Side Project.
" That students have been taught that a good idea necessarily proceeds a good piece of work.
This does not necessarily follow.
That piece of work is capable of being a piece of shit - the same as any other piece of work.
There is an option:
You can produce work of which you have no idea why it was done, where it is going or what purpose it serves.
Very often you have no idea what effect something is going to have until it is actually produced "
A lecture as good as I had hoped it would be.
However - the above I do agree with up to a certain extent as it it denies the "evidence led" doctrines so often in place in colleges at the moment.
But,
I do tend to find that if I have a good idea the following statement does tend to come quickly, smoothly and easily.
Being the first part of a four blog set up. All the sites will never be in a neat, finished state. Tree house is a more general and historical comment on my life.

- In this brace of blogs, I am trying to sum up the artistic goals I am aiming for. Maybe, more for myself rather than other people although I would like others to read it. I intend to use the sites as places to which I invite people, I dont expecr an immediate rash of people keen to pore over my life. I see it as a kind of glorified C.V. that will probably never get finished.

Please feel free to say whatever you feel.
I would be more than happy if your comment turns into a longer statement than mine.
I feel it adds to the body of work and as yet you are one of a small nuber of people who read this anyway!
