New Horizons Popping Up...



All sorts going on, as usual, but can't remember when I was more pleased to be entering the 'Autumn Term'...

Last weekend I was being filmed for an Horizon Special about the senses, and synaesthesia, so as it was raining, the BBC provided the most colourful umbrella possible....

...and I was given the luxury of just listening to the sea, and painting it's sound.

And so the mad theatre job has also recently come to an end...
....but don't think time backstage is ever idled though;
I became sort of obsessed with pop-up books and attempted some of my own paper engineering combining it with my other obsession/passion....Yes, a pop-up telephone box...


...which I then embellished with...well, more 'London' pop-ups


...and yes, I even made a globe which springs out of a book, when opened, thanks to some elastic from the wardrobe department and kind assistance from 'wigs'...

I also seemed to be in some sort of effigy fest; starting at Chichester...

leading to my kitchen...
this is an 'Italian Pizza Man with a Knife and Fork' (Nb. the fork was apparently very difficult to make!)

and then it was all completely inescapable at a 'Scarecrow Festival'...

All very bizarre...particularly Gordon Brown in a K6!

So, getting back to Brighton...

and the start of the new school term has been much anticipated...


Happy Autumn!
