4 March
More editing of photos and postgraduate degree
applications. I had a very long
talk with David in the afternoon discussing which CCW/CSM course would be most
fitting for me, as well as details of my project proposals for the
applications.
He suggested this show:

This is the kinetic end of things...Henry
Dagg. Maybe the wilder end of things, but he's the man for sound / object.

5 March
As I spent
the late afternoon setting the trail for my running club from Gloucester Road,
I discovered by chance a blue plaque pointing out Turner’s studio for over a
decade. I also went past St.
Luke’s church, Chelsea, where I will attend an Eric Whitacre Singers concert
next Tuesday night. I hope to get
a chance to speak to him, and hopefully give him one of the conductor-in-motion
drawings. I have been looking into
where to have prints made, as I have had several requests for them through my
website and Facebook page. It
would be nice if I could work out a way to sell them through EW’s site, but I
doubt that would happen.
7 March
Slept in,
was not at all hungry after a birthday filled with nothing but eating. Spent the afternoon at Selfridges for
the first time, followed by an evening of extreme immersion in postgraduate
applications.
8 March
The morning was spent going through CSM and CCW
postgraduate applications. I have
not had a chance to work much on the FMP, as applications are my primary
concern at this point.
After
paying the idiotic £30 VAT, I finally managed to pick up a package sent from
home, containing (amongst other things) an etching. The friend who wanted to buy it met me immediately. £150 later, it’s now proudly hanging on
his wall, I am told! Second
artwork I’ve sold in London.
9 March
Attended a
wedding in the MBE chapel of St. Paul’s Cathedral. I have avoided photographing this building for my project,
as it has already been artistically portrayed countless times. There is one photo I took at night a
couple of months ago that I could potentially use in pairs for this
project. I will start
experimenting with making new pairs soon.
10 March
Submitted my application for a Music MA at City
University this afternoon.
Someone shared this link on Facebook, which may come
in handy for my proposal idea for MA/MFA applications using a trumpet as a
means of making paintings: http://i.imgur.com/yd1BqNL.gif
