The BBC website ‘Ouch’ interviewed me because my film was at Dadafest tonight – tell you about that later and so here’s the link. Interestingly they edited out some of my more challenging answers to their questions and what’s the point in asking a question, and then changing the answer because it’s not the answer [...]

Yesterday I decided to find out what it was like to be blind, not permanently, you understand…I’m not that committed to new experiences. So I took a look around my room and house so as to remind myself where everything was and then put a weird plastic eye cover on, it’s actually a cosmetic eye [...]

I went to Liberty on Saturday it’s a pretty political disability day in Trafalgar sq in London. I hate those things – no sense of fucking humour, but I went cos my friend Jean Marie Akkerman was doing aerial work on silks and trapeze and some of it with a midget woman with brittle bone [...]

I have been filming an act called “The 4 strippers of the Apocalypse” if these people represent Armageddon then we all gonna have a fine fucking time…What a great act. I went cos actor and mutant Mat Fraser [...]

“Hey you….yes you, wanna buy some freaks?” this was my war-cry as I shuffled dementedly around BritDoc for three days last week. The British Documentary festival is actually not the best festival in the UK but it still attracts some buyers and distributors and them types so I went along to build a buzz about [...]

Hey guess what? Nothing thats what. The film played well at the Perth Festival but I didn’t go. It was too far to paddle me canoe. ….It’s off to the British Documentary Festival for me, to see if I can interest anyone in this magical odyssey that I have woven out of thin air and [...]

So I sit a consider the next move for this movie the BBC rang and said they want it, but they have said that before and things seem to move incredibly slowly in this world of moving pictures….I am having to make corporate films to pay the bills which is somewhat soul destroying at times. [...]
