The most substantial blog round-up I've seen of last weeks The Story event is here with some nice analysis, plus (as a small unexpected bonus) it has a sketch of me - i think maybe the third time I've been sketched in my whole life. This writeup also seemed worth noting cos it reads Starfucker (which I read at the event) as something more than a stream of obscenities. Still in vaguely on Starfucker - one of the people I was talking to at The Story recommended a site called Roy Orbison in Cling Film. Don't worry. It's just a collection of stories like this one, tho apparently there's a novel out there somewhere which I'm going to track down. (OK, I did, it's easy - at Amazon, here). The author (a quite possibly fictitious Ulrich Haarburste) puts it well I think - "Not to speak boastfully but this is perhaps the only book you will ever need to own on the subject of wrapping Roy Orbison in clingfilm." I'm going to get a few copies since I know it will go down well at Christmas. * Video of me here on Art Review website as part of their series called Close Encounters: On Performance, recorded the other week at Gasworks just after the opening and with me discussing all and sundry connections between performance work, visual art, writing etc. Can't really bring myself to watch it but people tell me it's looking good.
