SEND CA$H: The Collected Poems of Stewart Home

Stewart Home is a prose machine but when his settings malfunction sometimes poetry spews out instead. He is the author of sixteen novels including the pulp/avant-garde classics “Slow Death,” “Tainted Love,” “She’s My Witch,” and “69 Things to Do with a Dead Princess.” His work since the late 1970s has included visual art interventions, music and seven books of cultural commentary. This is the first collection of his poetry, song lyrics and an appendix of his mother Julia Callan-Thompson’s poetry.

The Berlin Wall Considered As A Work Of Conceptual Art

When I think of Christo and Jeanne-Claude I think of their work Running Fence, and when I think of Running Fence I think of the Berlin Wall. Christo and Jeanne-Claude began work on Running Fence in 1972. The fence was 5.5 meters high and 40 kilometres long. It was constructed in Sonoma and Marin Counties, California. It was a fabric fence, supported by steel posts and steel cables, running through the landscape and leading into the sea. Towards the end of 1973, Christo and Jeanne-Claude marked the path of the fence with wooden stakes. On 29 April 1976, the work finally began after most of the necessary permissions had been granted.

The Downing Street Affair

At the beginning of this month (June 2013) news broke of a love affair that might rock Downing Street, and this became known as the Downing Street Affair.

The internet was rife with speculation as to who the middle-aged mystery pair might be – but within a week interest faded away. Because some things shouldn’t be allowed to disappear – and I’d like to know whether this was a real story or just ‘legacy’ media hype – I thought I’d blog a list of anagrams and near anagrams of ‘the Downing Street affair’.
