Best overheard cell-phone conversation:

No, no you don't understand. Mum has sold the house.. But she doesn't own it.

Came across an interview with Michael Elmgreen whose project Drama Queens with Ingar Dragest at Munster Skulptur Project I wrote the text for. The interview here is in Danish so probably won't be much use to the general readership here although some words do seem vaguely recognisable. (Use the tags if you want to find other stuff I wrote about the project on this site).

I borrowed the picture above, which shows the operators in charge of moving the remote controlled sculptures - also found links to two small parts of the performance on youTube - here and here. These seem to be from the computer-animation mock-ups made before the live work was finalised. The audio doesn't seem like quite the final version either - I'm pretty sure the Jeff Koon's Rabbit got an additional layer of reverb! Worth a look though.

Alex Petridis is often best when he's criticising. But here he gives a positive but very amusing write up to Birmingham band Poppy and the Jezebels. There are four songs from the album on their myspace. The first of them is great.
