Drawing exchange
2005 - ongoing | Collaboration with Lady LucyDrawing Exchange is a social drawing programme. Creating situations where the amateur and the expert, the drawn and the drawer, the traditional drawing class and a night out down the pub, merge and lose their distinction. Drawing Exchange is not a drawing lesson and any member of the public regardless of drawing ability is weclomed to attend the only thing most welcomed enthusiasm and curiosity.
websiteBristol - Food for free
2003 - 2010 | Collaboration with Heath BuntingSince 2004 we have been mapping the edible plant organisms that live within public realms of Bristol City UK. Plants that are rooted in private domains yet branch into public space are included in this survey. Potential planting sites are also investigated, with the aim to increase the life spectrum of the city. The map is not like an A to Z; it doesn't have road names. The map can be navigated by following the contours of the roads, the defining shapes of the city, the plant locations as points of reference.

Cube Cola
2003 - Ongoing | Collaboration with Kate RichStanding on the hands of giants.
We are wildcrafting our own cola from an online, open source recipe. A process developed through home-lab experimentation, merging domestic and scientific methadology. Currently we sell cube cola online, in the form of concentrate kits and behind the Cube Bar and Cafe Kino of Bristol City.

Dads Cabs - Car9
2008 - 2009CAR 9 is a mythical story, set in the interface between the urban city and the natural world. The story is a fantasy made out of the real conversations, observations and the personal experiences the artist went through during the residency period. A psycho-geographical interpretation of how the taxi business, the road and territory surrounding the rank are manifested.
websiteAvon Canoe Pilot
2006 - 2007 | collaboration with Heath BuntingAvon canoe pilot is a meditative sport-art project. It is only itself. Making no associations or allusions to things greater or more established than itself. It exists within the realms of sport/ adventure and exploration. All activities were performed in a beginners state of mind, which is aspired to by many, but is also highly provocative. Imagine buying a Canoe from e-bay, or some such greed infrastructure and then taking it, without experience, to the waters edge. Fear and courage combined with presence of mind, delicate physical touches working together to produce one, of many, first steps to something new.
websiteBristol Blue flag
2007 - ongoing | in collaboration with Heath Bunting and Birgit Binder
Living in a city can be wonderful if the river is clean
and deeply depressing if dirty.
People that pollute rivers and lakes are criminals, but that's another story.
It is common mythology that immersion in The City of Bristol Docks (The Docks)
will prove fatal. Analysis of regular Bristol City Council test results suggest that swimming in the
docks is safe half of the year and blue flag equivalent at least once a year.
PROTEST FOR A PUBLIC SWIMMING SPOT IN THE DOCKS!
Tour De Fence
2002 - ongoing | collaboration heath Bunting, Kate Rich
Tour de fence acknowledges fence as metaphor for private property. fence as
a supposedly temporary, often moblie barrier performing functions of inclusion
and exclusin, entrapment and guided freedom, decoration, saftey, user boundary,
protection from harzard, low control, visual screeming and user separation.
Fence is a permeable filter system defining permitted use and users. light, wind,
insects, water, plants and sound pass unhindered while high order life forms such as humans,
fish, cattle and cars are engaged.
Tour De fence invites hands and feet tours of city fences.
Daily News
2007 - ongoing | in collaboration with Heath Bunting
Launched in 2007. Daily News is a paper about the lives and loves of the non-human inhabitants of global
cities. This is news from the animal kingdom; straight from the horse's mouth.
...We don't just hear these stories we relive them.

queues, waiting rooms. On billboards

Dogs of Christiania
2006-2007
The Dogs of Christiania is an artist research into the lives and loves of the Christiania canine population.
This is a work in progress that investigates how human law, society and habitation effects our interspecies
relations.
"The greatness of a nation and its moral progress can be judged by the way its animals are treated."
'Mahatma Gandhi' The project begins here.
Has Christiania's status as an experimental society been known to the dog population?
Are they 'freer' as a result?

Dry Store
2005 - ongoing
Bothys and Hut networks are places were journeying people can rest for free. All tend
to provide simple shelter from the elements, some are highly equipped, others are bare
but can suffice. For things to work, active responsibility of the user is essential.
The networks tend to keep abreast via creating association structures.
Akin to the Bothy, Hut networks of remote regions: DryStore is network of cashes along
routes, meeting points and journeying paths: routes which are often defined by
inaccessibility and minority activity. Dry Store tries to create resources accessible
at all times and along relational routes. The resources provided will not necessarily
be for purely practical needs.
Red Net

RED#NET is a multi-functional, permeable, portable surface that
reroutes and reapplies public space. Constructing systems that support

websiteBotanical Guide to BorderXing
2003 - 2004 | collaboration with Heath Bunting
Extracts from The Botanical Guide to BorderXing is a
pocket-sized aide, assiting all those who would like
to become acquainted with wild plants and border crossing.
The guide can be used to identify plants, terrain and
strategies across a broad range of crossing conditions.
People border cross whether they are fleeing persecution
or seeking change.
Sponsored Influenza Pandemic Evacuation Rehearsal (SIPER).
12-19 September 2005 | in collaboration with Heath Bunting
A summer camp for survivalists.
The next influenza pandemic is long over due and expected
to kill at least 1 billion people worldwide in 12 months.
The survival of urban dwellers can be assisted by a 1
month evacuation to the country.
Evacuated yourself and chosen companions to a safe haven,
avoiding population centres and transport, which would
both be dysfunctional and dangerous during the real
thing.
If alone, feel free to join the cube staff for refuge in
the caves of Skye, living on a diet of snails and
seaweed.
Nothing Can Suprise Us
29th April - 2nd May 2005|
Nista Nas Ne Moze Iznenaditi 'Nothing can surprise us'- city
/ country wide catastrophe exercises organised by ONO i DSZ
(Opstenarodna odbrana i drustvena samozastita, translation: 'Nation
wide defence and social self protection committee') for the military,
police, health system, but also civilians (including children) in former
Yugoslavia. note:(ne moze -- although it looks like two words is pronounced as one)
NCSU researches survival operative systems, and the pathos of training and
preparing for real or fantastic catastrophic / disaster scenarios. NCSU
spectrum of research stretches from the daily risk of falling over to the
global risk of using fossil fuels.
Collective Manouvers
3rd to 5th October 2003 | In collaboration with Heath Bunting
"Achieving social and culture generation via movement."
For three days Bristol City was an Olympic arena for collaboration and
competition.
Collective Manouvers was a congregation of local and international cultural
collectives, exploring universal urban architecture and furniture.
We invited groups to present challenges and compete against each other for
rewards. Challenges issued by teams utilised existing urban structures eg
trees, walls, skips, lamposts. Teams were self assembling of one or more
members.
