Music
things with good guitars - rock, indie, folk, the occassional country & western has even been known to float out of my memory and vocal chords; especially women singers.
Movies
barbarella, pretty in pink, donnie darko, classic Black and Whites including early gothic horrors and 30s/40s romance.
About me:
I'm a freelance consultant for art, craft, design, museum and gallery projects as well as contemporary crafts researcher, curator, collector and maker. I'm really interested in DIY crafts and am researching this area in the hope of helping kick-start the scene in the UK. Please read and add to my blog as it will really help my research.
I secured a grant for the project and will have a report ready later this year, hopefully leading to an action plan for 2008 onwards.
I'm also slowly building my textiles work back up having been too busy for it for years!
