Thursday

At the end of yesterday, when I had these ones copied, I wasn't very happy with themóabout putting them up. Of course I kept telling myself "that's good to put up things I don't think are resolved" and anyway I ran out of time so I just had to get them done. Funny thing was that this morning when I was pasting them up I actually quite liked them. I've been trying to think why, and all I can really say is that they are 'changed' by their application to the bollardóin situ. I guess the significance of the beer poster below has only just occured to me . . . intoxication, chance, 'winning'. . . The Grand Saloon has 'casino' (gambling) references (in case that wasn't obvious?). I've mentioned before my interest in the designed artefact's ability to move beyond the designer and begin to take on a (unexpected/unplanned) life of it's own (a monster of sorts). I'll try and flesh out these ideas in a more cohesive critical reflection on this project next weekówhen it's over!
