Movies
A nod to the woman who's technique moulded my body. Martha Graham RIP.
Television
'Green Wing' was fuckin hillarious.
'Jam', 'Brass Eye', 'The Day Today', in fact, almost anything by Chris Morris makes for great TV.
Dennis Potter (RIP) screen play genius. Check out 'The Singing Detective'. If it's not amazing then turn off that television set and go and do something less boring instead.
Mindless pap causes the mind to stagnate. fact.
Books
Starting to read ’BLOOD’ by Janice Galloway
"He put his knee up on her chest getting ready to pull, tilting the pliers. Sorry he said, sorry."
What a fantastic start to a novel, this promises much.
Re-read Martha Graham’s autobiography, ’Blood Memory’ while studying at her school in NYC. A wonderfull read and packed full of such quotable philosophies. wonderful artist.
Favourite reads. ’Of Mice and Men’ and ’Cannery Row’ by John Steinbeck. ’Dubliners’ by James Joyce. ’Lanark’ by Alisdair Gray, and also a collection of short stories by the same author titled ’Ten Tales Tall and True’ exciting stuff! And not to be forgotten, all the poetic works of William Oliphant (my Grandfather) ’Devils Dozen’, ’The Seamstress in The Nudist Camp’, ’Marking Cosmic Time’, The Impact of Television on The Plumheaded Parakeet’, to name bt a few. my inspiration.
About me: My latest creation
some film fun.
I am an artist. I am a dancer, I am a musician. I was trained at London Contemporary Dance School. I make films and music. I am a visual creature, I am a spritual creature. Harmony is my gospel. I look at the beautiful sky and want to cry at it's transience. With life comes death and I am rather interested in what happens after that. Onwards... Here we go! and here I am!

Dear Ruby you inspire me. Just watched Falling. I love it; there is a wonderful sense of liberation in the movement. I'm having one of my Wendy anxiety phases. Great art has a magical way of making you feel both alive and enlightened. You do it so well. Bendy xx
