A Conversation with Lorelei Lisowsky: imagination for survival

Monday, June 28th, 2010

This is my second interview with an artist who has walked into a space institute, asserting their right to an alternative perspective.
This is the moon over Edgware Road.

These artists are pioneers. When you go into a space institute the doors of possibilities open up. Its a magical world where consciousness, life itself can be […]

Talking to Ewen Chardronnet: poetics of the encounter

Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

On December 4th 2009 I recorded an interview with Ewen Chardronnet. I’d heard that he’d been to space places in Russia.
I want to interview people, artists who I think have pioneered, have gone into space agencies as sort of the first artists. I want to find out what their impressions are because I have […]

One Year on from Satellite Stories

Sunday, January 17th, 2010

I went back to the Mullard Space Science Lab one year after doing the Satellite Stories event there.
I wanted to find out what people remembered from it and if anything had changed. I’d thought that the sunset to darkness walk round the grounds with the scientists and engineers telling their stories, would be a […]

Satellite Stories: a letter to the Lab

Tuesday, February 24th, 2009

It seems a long time after the event to be writing back my thoughts!

I wanted to make sure at some point I had fed back to you and people who took part, where the ideas came from and why I wanted to collaborate on the storytelling event we did together. Also to find out from […]

Cosmo-Skymed

Wednesday, October 1st, 2008

Cosmo-Skymed orbit at 90 degrees from each other. Four, as a constellation, polar orbiting, in a square, a cross, like target hairs, like a windmill. Sometimes they can be brought together as two pairs of satellites, 150 kilometers apart, at 20 degrees from each other and maybe this is to do with them becoming eyes, […]

Thursday, July 31st, 2008

(image courtesy UCL, MSSL)
Voyages of spacecraft through the rooms, minds, garden, lanes, conversations, meetings, oceans, atmospheres, magnetospheres, the pulls and the pushes, the stages of certainty and uncertainty.
This is one plan, the first draft. It could work with a skeleton structure, that’s open enough for adaptation and improvisation, but explores themes, pathways and distances. A […]

Notes on the Geostationary Orbit

Thursday, May 15th, 2008

The Geostationary or Geosynchronous orbit is a ring around the equator, 36 000 kilometres from earth, holding an architecture of mythic proportions.
Goonhilly is connected to four groups - INTELSAT (intelsat was the first geostationary satellite to go up in 1965) INMARSAT (which is the International Maritine Satellite Organisation), PanAmSat and EutelSat. When they started with […]
