My family and friends, frequenting Museums and art galleries for their plethora of ‘art’ and ‘culture’ (the latter argue and define if you will), history and politics. My chief interest comprises 19th and 20th century British, German, French and American visual arts. I’m particularly interested in avant-gardism and thus the concept of bohemianism as a by product of this visual phenomenon. On an everyday basis; fine food, alcohol (when funds permit) and smoking.Furthering my scarf, tie and cravat collection, in failing to replace Nicolas Serota of the Tate gallery, or curating in general for the matter, I shall endeavor to open my own ‘neck ware museum’

University promotes procrastination and thus television is an attractive lure. Over the last few years I have found my self watching the most mind numbing nonsense in order to deter myself from studying. Since graduating and thereafter embarking on full time employment I no longer find the time to watch television with the exception of polemical documentary types. I am however still mourning the loss of Neighbours. Quite simply I’m in television rehabilitation.
