No worries man. Your art is looking awesome, as usual!
I've been studying. Lots. Getting work done for my masters. I've sorted out a dissertaion now so I'm working on that, as well as trying to get coursework done and presentations planned. It's all pretty hectic at the moment.
How are things with you man? Still doing those crazy installations?

Hehe thanks.. I've been trying out new things!
What are you doing for masters? Sounds really tough. Is it something software based? I think you might have told me before..
I've actually been in norwich for the past 3 weeks, got a job here for a month and going back at the end of the week. I've been making cameras for astronomy for this company called Atik. Its been interesting and I got to find out how to make colour images from different filter images of nebula and stuff!
I think I'm probably going to do the next secret cinema next month too.

I'm doing a network security masters. It's proper fun, we get to learn all kinds of cool stuff, but it's a lot of work. I'm sure it'll all pay of in the end though.
Sounds like you're doing pretty well. Make cameras sounds hardcore man. Oh, and I had a look on the Secret Cinema website. It's looks really interesting. How'd you end up working for them?

Dayerm, that sounds awesome. I bet you could get up to all sorts of internet mischief with that kind of knowledge! When does the course finish?
I was just doing that camera thing for a month and it got pretty boring by the end of the month, built the same camera 60 times.
One of my friends that I used to live with got me a volunteer job at secret cinema for the blade runner event, after that they were cool with getting me and my friends on it for the rest of the events. Its really awesome depending on what the film is and how much budget they have.

The course finishes in September. The masters goes on for a whole year. It's a taught masters so we have lectures and exams and stuff until the summer, but instead of going home like all the undergraduates we have to stay here and do a dissertation. Not entirely sure what I'm gonna do after I finish. I'm thinking staying and doing a PhD.
So whats on the cards now you've finished making cameras?

oh cool, so you have a while left. if you did a phd you would have so many extra letters to add after your name.. BAMAPHD
I'm back to looking for a job now, I think I might be doing a music video for this band "whourkr" [link] but I dunno what will happen, there's loads of little projects and I am crap at sticking to one thing.
