The little Twin Dome is now on a road trip back to the big Twin Dome in St Andrews. Starting at the shore in Cellardyke

More progress with the wee Twin Dome. A few more squares then it’s on to project telescope and then a tour of Fife

Not satisfied with just one Twin Dome, I am making another (slightly smaller). Thanks to ceramic artist Vanessa Bullick, the new piece (in 2 pieces) has just come out of the kiln and coloured squares will be next. My contribution has been the rectangular section. Not perfect but lots of personality

Still more little squares of brass for the installation #BeingSunny at the Twin Dome. A long way still to go

Quite a few more flowers are starting to appear in the Twin Dome meadow. I’m expecting poppies, corn flowers and ox-eye daisies but it’s looking like we might also have white campions, field pennycress, Malcolm maritima and anchus arvensis (if my phone app is to be believed)

Looking back to detail of “in the event of always falling back down again”. Installation at the School of Physics and Astronomy. Still looking good.

Walked Charles Jencks' St Ninian's Fife Earth Project yesterday. Massive, uncompleted art project to commemorate a village and colliery. Hill spirals. Haunting.
