The Re-Invention Of The Bicycle.
A few photos from my recent tenure at Sam's gaff in France where with Sam's tools and help we ventured into designing a cheap and made not to last bicycle from left over building materials.

'wired people should know something about wires.'

A nice quote that I believe carries some resonance from screenwriter Andy Kaufman
"There was this movie Serpico. Al Pacino is a cop and he has an artist
girlfriend, and there's a party scene with all these different artist
types. They're saying 'I'm a painter but I work in a restaurant,' 'I'm
an actor but I work in an office,', and this goes on for a while. Then
Al Pacino says 'I'm a cop and I work for the police department,'. But
there's that feeling when you want say you're something, and you have
nothing to back it up because everyone says they're a writer, or
everybody says they're this or that -- this is what I felt -- and
everyone else thinks it's bullshit. It's funny now that I don't want to
call myself that but at the time I did and I think that it was necessary
at the time, but now it doesn't feel necessary because I think the
thing I realise is I'm not those things."

The Glad Cafe
Spotted this in the latest issue of The Wire today about a new Glasgow cafe/arts venue called The Glad Cafe:
Glasgow is getting its own version of Cafe Oto. On 17 August a new venue opens in the Southside of Glasgow for new and experimental music and art, with plans for installations and film screenings. Venue manager Joe Smillie says: "Three years ago my sister Sarah was staying in Dalston and took my mother to Cafe Oto, knowing it was the kind of place my mum would go nuts about. She did, and on arriving back in Glasgow decided that this was something the Southside was missing. She wouldn't stop talking about it and eventually roped my wife, Karina and myself in."
Don't suppose anyone else Glasgow way knows about it yet or has even visited inside? Worth considering either for potential shows or just another place to hang out. Also, this gig on October 8th looks rather tempting...
