The misadventures of a hapless gang of marauding developpers and their clique little quango have failed in attempts to win public support for their crazy dream of a self-congratulatory concrete square and retail development, suitably equipped for the likes of Sir Ian Woods own wifes shopping tastes. Well I'm Still Here!"  The Irate Woodland Creature continued to say. " Were still here, all of us and were staying put. If the Peacock project is managed carefully we shouldn't suffer much disturbance.

  • Day 02. Here we are in the glory of Glasgow's oldest pub (apparently.) Speakers are all ready, other members beginning to arrive. Come and join us at any point over the afternoon. There's tea, coffee and later on wine and some canapes.

  • 'morning. I'm about to head down to Mono to set up, have a chat with the team. See some of you there at 11.30 hopefully. And if not, catch you at various creative spaces in Glasgow throughout the day. By the way, did we mention, we've got badges... See photo above.

  • Central Station ask me to post some info about what I'll be talking about... so here's a snippet:

    Artists and the internet:
    web-based artwork or online portfolio?

    Since 2000, artist Ellie Harrison has been experimenting with using the internet as a site for exhibiting web-based artwork and as a promotional tool for other aspects of her practice. She is interested in the crossover between these two roles and her current website is a somewhat over-the-top archive of it all; a mini one-woman online museum.
