London Paddington Station

I did a cross EU/UK trip in May of 2022. Was taken aback by the sheer size and number of tracks at this station.

First of a series of photos I'll be posting occasionally!

Since some of you seem to enjoy these tessellation experiments, here's an old projection mapping installation project of mine for which I combined similar patterns with digital fabrication (laser cutting & cutting plotters) to produce two Victorian-style room dividers with 620 handfolded paper cones, which were then used as 3D projection surface. Visitors could use an iPad app, housed in a small dolly table (also laser cut), to produce custom animated patterns which were then projected onto the paper cones...

This morning I glanced at a list of albums Brooklyn Vegan posted about for 2024 records so far this year, and there's a new FOUR TET record from March I feel like I would've missed had I not seen it there-- I hadn't heard about it.

Four Tet is of course Kieran Hebden from London and is some wild, weird and beautiful electronic stuff. There's some great synth and ambient sounds (and beats!) on this one.

'Three' will most likely be among my favorite albums of 2024.

Hope there aren't too many pubs and off licences on Hodge's walking route, or she might end up seriously way-laid!

(This ghastly character is both a cynic and a moral entrepreneur, as well as a mean drunk, btw.)

"Campaigning Labour MP knocks on doors of wealthy #London homes bought by foreign leaders who are subject to sanctions..."
