Mishmash



Currently (apart from the new series of channel 4's Utopia) I am obsessed with the idea of combination. Mostly this rears its ugly head in the form of papers I write for my degree at Wolverhampton University that focus on Applied Arts and interdisciplinarity but anything that seeks out a kind of cultural mishmash is something I am drawn towards.

The "digital taxidermy" by some magic internet person referring to themselves as quebectango or the beautiful paintings/stylistic abominations by Cesar Santos are artworks that have recently made their way into my internet reading allowing me to make this kind of observation.

In a world where nothing seems original (simply because nothing develops without context) combinations seem attractive to me, and the more honest and blatent, the better.
