    'Meaning of Making'

    Brunswick House Cafe

    Stephen Bayley, Design Guru

    'In my fantasy, I say “Prime Minister, do you actually know what a rivet is?” […]and he hasn't a clue! He's completely out of touch with the culture of making' 

    Sam Bompass, (Of Bompass & Parr) Jelly Artist

    'We invited every architect to design whatever they wanted in jelly. We'd make them their heart's desire. Then we were asked to make a bridge'

    Asad Raza, Producer for Tino Sehgal (Turbine Hall)

    'The meaning of making a thing is no longer: how difficult is it to make that thing? But: how interesting is that thing to us, how unusual is that thing?' 

    Full review, Tom's Blog.

      You make some good points. I guess it depends on your standpoint. I dont believe in the after life, although I am bringing a change of underwear. Woody Allen Born 1935
