if you are concerned about climate change
if it scares you speechless and wakes you in the night.
if you are bothered about the flooding you keep seeing.
or those high winds.
or that there is something not quite right about the fact you're still walking round in a Tshirt in october.
please find out about the the big ask campaign
www.thebigask.comwe are hassling all MPs in the uk to write to our glorious leader and get a bill that commits us all to reducing carbon emissions 3percent a year. its a start. it has to be law. otherwise its never going to happen. and it has to.
ahem speech over.
weve started the record properly now. starting to get somewhere i think. finally.
love thom
p.s. if you're american and wondering whether this is a load of old crap look at this flashy website if you have time

if you are ever in lausanne, switzerland
there is the best collection of outsider art in the world here
http://www.artbrut.ch/index.cfm?Show=Oeuvreswhen i was at art college this collection was a big influence on me. now finally i have seen it.
and it surpassed even my expectations.
i found myself close to tears. and that never happens in galleries.. normally i am falling asleep
or try to find a cup of coffee.
honestly try it.. if you are ever here, it will change you.

Not as good as.

category.
sticker.
list.
position.
never was.
never will be again.
the only way is down.
so now ambels around aimlessly.
casting around for that magic. me.
it is denied.
searches for own epitaph in graveyard.

Don't let the Stupid define the Age.
Tim Hunkin's inventions, under the pier at Southwold. I keep trying to go there but not quite making it. Maybe you'll have better luck. Go to Ipswich and turn right.
depression is not fussy about who it hits. and feeling isolated and powerless doesnt help especially when yer young and all. this site has lots of people sharing their experiences which is what us humans need in order to cope.
Great dance music site, lots of old articles and features, dj mixes
Found this extraordinary shop in Brighton last week. It's well worth a visit...
“The relationship between photographers and police could worsen next month when new laws are introduced that allow for the arrest - and imprisonment - of anyone who takes pictures of officers ‘likely to be useful to a person committing or preparing an act of terrorism’.”
maybe it's about time the likes of Apple took responsibility for the manufacture of their products, as they're supposed to be so cutting edge.
As we're lifelong contributors to 'anthrophony' we're pretty culpable....but still, fascinating studies.
Look to the stars!
The Chestnut Tree Café. ...it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother.

Plastic. Is. Everywhere.
Bhopal was the worst industrial disaster in history. A leak of methyl isocynate killed 20,000, injured millions more and Union Carbide... um, er...

As they say, we don't live in the Information Age, or even the Oil Age. We all have to eat. We live in the Agriculture Age.
Download books on to your Blackberry instead of using it to send email, 'browse' the 'web' or any of the other tedious business-related 'apps'. It'll still look like you're really really busy.
This is great if you should be doing something boring for someone else.
Man, I couldn't even read this, it looked so scary. But maybe you can? Maybe it has a happy ending?
Fascinating, horrifying, beautiful photography.
Put that important work aside. Slack off. Play this, it's great.
Well-written, urgent and frequently very funny. Featuring the now-legendary 'Crap Arrest of the Week'.
Bored? Read a magazine. No celebrity cellulite in this one, I'm afraid.
If only. People are beginning to question the idea of filling our streets with fast-moving metal objects that smell bad and make those driving them behave worse.
Fill 'er up. While you're at it, check the dipstick thing.
Derrick May on Strings of Life
Messiaen's bird song imitations along with field recordings.
Simply incredible. Housing estates are the new up.
I found this when I was looking for pictures of housing estates. The Typologies are fantastic.
Dedication's whatchooneed.
Send your old computer somewhere more useful/less harmful than the local dump. Turns out Apple computers have a terrible environmental impact. Doh.

An excellent independent liberal reporter on the Middle East.
Why don't you switch off your television set and do something less boring instead?
Anyone annoyed by the occasional use of badly-strung together Esperanto might like this. On the other hand, sub est pli nova supreni, as any fule kno.
