"There is a serious possibility that we are being
visited - and have been visited for many years - by
people from outer space, from other civilizations;
that it behoves us to find out who they are, where
they come from, and what they want. This should be
the subject of rigorous scientific investigation,
and not the subject of rubbishing by tabloid
newspapers"
Admiral Lord Hill-Norton
Former Chief of Defence Staff, UK
"A few insiders know the truth . . . and are
studying the bodies that have been discovered,"
Dr Edgar Mitchell, 6th man to walk on the moon.

Meaning, please?
This exhibition is an exploration of the readers'
sense and nonsense. You see a photo, it 'appears'
portentous, to represent Something of Reality, but
does it really - or is it all bollocks and pig's
bathwater? I've gathered a series of photos that I
hope will make you think about the true significance
of the symbolism used and what makes an image (or
indeed anything) break the limitations of the media
and to resonate with you.

new art in the vaults
The amplified reality headset (arh)
Portalists Inigo Wilkins and Adam Hobbs will present
the arh in the vaults of the foundry again, from
13th Dec, demonstrating the second-generation
prototype for an audio-visual recording and playback
device that concerns the bodyÕs orientation in
space. The arh places you in a series of affective
environments that constitute a kind of time travel.
Immersion is encouraged through the stimulation of
the proprioceptive faculty. Opposed to the
pre-designed possibilities of the corporate virtual
reality headset (vrh) the amplified reality headset
(arh) is an instrument for the multiplication of
potential. We cannot describe the wearer of the arh
as a user, for this machine is not used in the way
that we can ride a bicycle for example, or, more
pertinently a vrh Ð the arh is not a one-way utility
- the words player or performer are closer, but they
do little to impart the sense that you are also the
subject or victim of the apparatus; in some ways you
become what is called a horse in the worship of the
orishas Ð and you are ridden by the spirit of a
series of affective sensory-perceptive events that
constitute a kind of possession - the act of wearing
the arh catalyses a feedback mechanism where the
biological participant is best described by the word
vector.
The vector, having inserted its human recording head
into the helmet, will see both live and recorded
images of the world about it on an LCD screen
magnified by a fresnel lens to the virtual size of
over a square meter and viewed at close proximity.
It will hear a corresponding sequence of past and
present worlds on stereo amplified headphones and
also through the vibrations of a bass speaker
situated beneath the vector. Planned additions to
the initial prototype are a miniature camera that
records the motion of the arh and its vector as they
move through an environment. This information will
then be projected back on to the fresh vector,
bathing the parasitic couple in a ghostly trace of
its time travelling interior. The foundry have given
us this opportunity to use the vaults as a workshop
for ten days or more, so there are a number of ideas
in the pipeline which will be work in progress, such
as collaborations with musicians and the possibility
of using green screen and video mixer to displace
the audience itself into different time-spaces.

CLASH ART 13 -18 december
[Clash Art]
Clash Art is a newly founded group of artists, which
is still growing. Although all the artists come from
a different cultural background what unites them is
the very fact that they share a common experience of
displacement and a continuous search for their
identity: national or personal. The artwork produced
by these artists ranges from photography,
performance, video, painting and drawing, covering
in other words the whole spectrum of contemporary
art. As the name implies the main goal of this group
is to bring to the forefront art that is unique,
defies categorisation, is contemporary and involves
a discourse between the artistsÕ works and the
viewer. Clash Art aims to introduce to a wide public
high quality work from all corners of the earth
without any prejudice towards any ethnic or cultural
groups.
For Foundry, we will develop our main subjects such
as cultural identity, displacement, memory and
issues of globalisation by creating a live
installation.
This includes live paintings, drawings and video
projection along with interactive performance by
artists themselves.
The viewer will be able to see the work develop and
grow into the space.

My cultural background is an important aspect of my
identity and my work. I am half English half Irish
but spent most of my childhood in Japan. There are
strong references to maps or fragmentation in my
work. These are references brought into my work with
a need to explore the notion of living in between
cultures. I am interested in exploring both the
negative aspects of cultural confusion. Evan when I
am exploring subjects such as displacement there is
still a sense of celebration of being able to
understand more then one culture. I like to take a
simple object or image and change itÕs status from
what it would normally be in the world. Land and
roads or chairs and planes tame on personalities and
become characters.

Our dreams, our deepest emotions, our nightmares,
they are going beyond a body of languages and
locations. The sadness, the happiness, the coldness,
the foolishness, the nothingness, the fullness, the
craziness, the emptiness of my days is yours too. I
see them linger, sigh, laugh, caress around me and
have to portray this Ôinner landscapesÕ of us which
will be holding its hands together somewhere in this
world. There are too many 'I don't knowsÕ and we're
walking on the road of tomorrows no one knows. I
want to know, I want to understand, I want to see, I
want to touch - you, me, him, her, us, them and
yesterdays, todays and tomorrows of our times.
That's why IÕm here and make films.

My painting is aiming at eradicating stereotypes and
elevating a superlative virtue the energy for
creativity, spontaneity, playfulness and enthusiasm
for life itself. I strongly believe in a global
unity where there is no ÒmineÓ and ÒyoursÓ, but the
appraisal for the beautiful and the remarkable
surpassing the boundaries of every country acquiring
a global recognition. I am of the opinion that in
this way many problems are overcome, creativity is
enhanced for the artist since he or she transcends
any taboos and advances in the creation of an
artistic work without any inhibitions.
