📣Klaxon! 📣i-Phone CALL OUT! 🤳 Do you have an old i-phone that you don’t use? Would you be willing to donate it to an arts project? I’m looking for five recent-ish i-phones to use in an upcoming exhibition to present my recent Avi-Alarm filters as an interactive installation.

@jocpublication tracing Yugoslav/diaspora artists in the UK often means scanning archives, bookshelves, and captions for names ending 'ic'. on a too-brief research trip to Ireland - for IMMA's superb Self-Determination exhibition - I was surprised to find mine, at The Library Project in Dublin!

a truly great day in the archives with Richard Demarco and Terry Ann Newman; we passed almost all of four hours in the Polish Room, and found another (rope) line between Magdalena Abakanowicz, Yugoslavia, and Scotland. more photographs at @Summerhallery in Edinburgh, and online.
