Pointless Sub-thought.
Performance film.
Eating at the edges of the city. Bucket head performance. Standing at an angle to Everything. Work with Bungee's. The Chair Spectacle. Paid Parking or Time-out in a Square. Walk with toaster, skateboard and weighing scales. Sub-thought. Sleeping bag performance in blue. A little Zest of lemon. Balancing on ATM cash machine with a floor brush.
Filmed by Patrick Jameson, Glasgow 2025.
Got To Go To The Studio.
You have things to do, in the studio. You are the CEO, Marketing Executive, Captain of ideas and Head of Strategy. The opportunities are boundless now you have some decent snacks and a tin of sardines for lunch. Marcel Duchamp said the Studio was a place to breath. Some call it the office, others go there to get away from work. Museums rebuild famous ones. In yours, you develop a branch of utterly pointless philosophy. You have failed to tick-off the practical jobs for today but formed a whole new list of useless tasks for tomorrow.
First shown on The Artificial, a free zone for real people. Curated by Frans Van Lent, 2023.

​Running for the Tram.
Just when the tram is beyond catching I run after it again. Walking back to the same tram stop, continuously like ground hog day, waiting for the next tram to run after and miss, with bags of shopping. Performance work, lasting all day.
