My Nan is 105 today. Bless her she’s not so terribly well but until just before the pandemic she walked everywhere, was never a drinker & as miserable as sin. Make of that what you will! I never was that close to her but I do admire the old bird. Happy birthday Nan

Today I’ve really done art in a big way
Grayson Perry ✔️
Leigh Bowery ✔️
Electric Dreams Exhibit ✔️

A commission by Grayson Perry to have one of his ceramic masks made into a knights helmet. The result is a brushed grey mental face with golden eyelashes, ears and stylised crown. Entitled something like the sissy’s bridle

Yellow ceramic vase with a bulbous body and slender neck. Decorated in dark blue cartoonish regency style ladies and gents, professing their wealth

Leigh Bowery - outrageous costumes on mannequins. All are sparking and have tight fitting masks and gloves

Moving Sculpture on a tripod. Reminiscent of a Mattisse mobile with silver mental half and quarter discs, casting a weblike silhouette on the floor and wall

A little poem I wrote last week whilst procrastinating. Abridged for the character limit here.

#PhDLife #Academia #poetry

Tristi Bee @tristibee.bsky.social · Apr 4

My procrastination first began with a packet of biscuits
Followed by some urgent cleaning
Then time was spent thinking about, overpainting that mark on my ceiling
And by the time I was finished & tidied away
I realised that the chapter I’d intended to write, would have to wait another day.

Thus Love at Ramsgate Music Hall was epic. Last night of the tour and they were in a jubilant and celebratory mood #ThusLove #RamsgateMusicHall

The band lined up and orderly at the beginning of the set

The singer is playing his guitar and singing into the microphone

The singer and bass guitarist lean against each other, their backs are arched and necks of their guitars are pointed upwards

Chaos at the end, the guitarist is between the second guitarists legs on his knees singing, the bass player has joined the audience. Moments later they were dancing

A week since I was visited by the duck, he’s turned up again and was quacking through the patio door. I wonder what he is trying to tell me? 🦆

Yes, our librarians are fantastic. Our university now has an arrangement for staff and PG students to publish OA too

I think it was seeing a little gold padlock on an online article that announced it was open access and I googled OA to find out what it meant
