Dear PEts
Apologies if I have said -- I don't think so -- but Guy Begbie and I have
a couple of collaborative book objects on exhibit at Visual Research
Centre in Dundee until 1st April
Missed the opening yesterday – we were in Bristol making a new one
Anyway, there are pictures

The gallery notes are strange. Especially regarding FORESHORE.
I remember a few months ago going to a London gallery where a recorded
version of a text-sound composition I made with John Drever was showing,
reading the notes and thinking “That’s not it at all”
It’s not bad here but they seem to see graphics as graphics and text as
text though their theme is “beyond text”
But I am happy to be there. They obviously like the work and see things in
it, especially ENGINE / HOUSE that I am happy to see now they've said it
