Snogometer (1965)
Trowbridge, Wiltshire.
Teenager Malcolm Pickard has built a fantastic contraption to measure the voltage of snogs - a snogometer.
M/S of Malcolm (a slightly spotty youth) fiddling around with his contraption, fitting light bulbs to it. It has fairy lights on it too.
A young teenage couple sit on a sofa looking at a magazine. Malcolm gives the pair electrodes to hold whilst they engage in a passionate mashing session. They really go to it! Narrator would have us believe that this is a Trowbridge Youth Club party - looks more like someone's front room. The kissing machine registers a number 2 snog. They have another go - lights flash and bells ring. The boy licks his lips! Narrator says: Mother's got nothing to worry about because it's all child's play - M/S of a woman sitting knitting - presumably watching this display of snogging - outrageous!
The electrodes are handed over to a more mature couple (the first two looked about 15 - these are more like 17 or 18). It is lucky Malcolm trying out his invention with a nice bird. They get down to a passionate snog. This time the light flashes on and off like crazy then to a mad sound effect explodes! Excellent.
Note: excellent film to show an eccentric invention and the disgusting habits of teenagers!

Karen Robertson At Trowbridge
Karen Robertson is a renowned product designer and producer of marine life inspired art. Her collections regularly appear in leading coastal lifestyle publications and award-winning designer show houses.
Known for her signature combination of sophistication and subtlety for marine life, Karen's pressed seaweeds are a gift from the sea as framed art. As a child, I was taught to press seaweed into an art form and recently decided to explore and introduce this fine art in my collection, Karen said.
I want my designs to bring you to another place. In my artwork, I bring the outdoors into the interior space. My work comes from nature's own magnificence.
Karen has spent most of her years on the coast of New England. A true entrepreneur, she has founded and owned several style businesses ranging from antiques to fashion. She now works from Ponte Vedra Beach, Florida, where she unearths much of her inspiration.
Places to see in ( Calne - UK )
Places to see in ( Calne - UK )
Calne is a town and civil parish in Wiltshire, southwestern England, at the northwestern extremity of the North Wessex Downs hill range, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Calne is on a small river, the Marden, that rises 2 miles (3 kilometres) away in the Wessex Downs, and is the only town on that river. It is on the A4 road national route 19 mi (31 km) east of Bath, 6 mi (10 km) east of Chippenham, 13 mi (21 km) west of Marlborough and 16 mi (26 km) southwest of Swindon. Wiltshire's county town of Trowbridge is 15 mi (24 km) to the southwest, with London 82 mi (132 km) due east as the crow flies.
In AD 978, Anglo-Saxon Calne was the site of a large two-storey building with a hall on the first floor. It was here that St Dunstan, Archbishop of Canterbury met the Witenagemot to justify his controversial organisation of the national church, which involved the secular priests being replaced by Benedictine monks and the influence of landowners over churches on their lands being taken away. According to an account written about 1000, at one point in this meeting Dunstan called upon God to support his cause, at which point the floor collapsed killing most of his opponents, whilst Dunstan and his supporters were in the part that remained standing. This was claimed as a miracle by Dunstan's supporters.
In 1086 Calne may already have been, as it was later, a market town on the main London-Bristol road. The church in it was well endowed. 74 or more households were held almost outright by burghal tenure (as citizens of a borough), and the lordship of its large outlying land was divided between the king (of whom 45 burgesses were tenants) and the church. In the Middle Ages the king's successor as the lord of Calne manor and, as owner of the church's revenues, the treasurer of Salisbury Cathedral, each had the right to hold a market and a fair in the town, with two triangular market places or fair grounds.
Tourism is described in nearby places of interest below, with details of the surrounding historic and landscape attractions. Within the town the annual Calne Music & Arts Festival was established in 1975. Notable buildings in the town include St Mary's Church, an array of houses on The Green and the town hall. Of particular note is Calne Library which has won awards for its innovative design and was opened by the Queen in 2001. Since the demolition of the Harris pork factory and the completion of the first phase of redevelopment/regeneration in 2001, Calne has seen Cotswold stone, similar to local limestone, being used together with smart red brickwork, formerly reserved for fine historical buildings.
The town centre suffers traffic congestion, with the A4 through the town close to gridlock during rush hour, due to single-file traffic between Curzon Street and Wood Street, with eastbound traffic having priority. A northern bypass road (part of the A3102 road) was completed in 2001. Calne is equidistant (12 mi or 19 km) from the M4 motorway at Junction 16 (Wootton Bassett/Swindon West) to the northeast of Calne, and the westbound M4 junction 17 just north of Chippenham to the northwest. The nearest main passenger airport is Bristol, 38 mi (61 km) to the south west. Calne has no railway or bus station, though in March 2007 it was designated as a National Express coach stop on route 403 from Bath to London via Heathrow Airport. The service runs once a day and has wheelchair-accessible coaches. Stagecoach West, Faresaver and Thamesdown Transport provide bus services to other nearby towns and cities such as Chippenham, Devizes, Marlborough, Swindon and Bath.

The 18th Storey -- The Haddon Tower Project
The 18th Storey -- The Haddon Tower Project was set within a condemned residential towerblock in Birmingham. Behind Closed Doors invited artists to make new site responsive works within the vacated flats and corridors of the 18th floor. The Haddon Tower was opened to the public for a week in March 2006. This project was made possible by Optima Community Housing who granted access to the block and offered continual support during the project, as well as Arts Council England who funded it.
This is a video walkthrough made during the exhibition.

Michael Hosaluk Lecture
This lecture was recorded on September 25th, 2015 in Timken Hall at the San Francisco campus of California College of the Arts.
Michael Hosaluk is recognized internationally and in Canada as one of the world’s most creative wood “turners.”
Hosaluk, who is self-taught, produces work that covers a wide range of objects and materials including functional vessels, furniture, and sculptural pieces. His work is humorous and elegant, possesses character and gesture, and is full of reference to architecture, nature, and culture.
His work has been exhibited throughout Canada, Europe, China, Japan, Australia, and the United States.
Hosaluk’s pieces can be found in the permanent collections of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II, Buckingham Palace; Zhao Xiu, Governor of Jilin Province, China; Idemitsu Corporation, Tokyo; Los Angeles County Museum of Art; The Detroit Institute of Arts; Yale University Art Gallery; Minneapolis Institute of Art and the Royal Ontario Museum.
He has lectured and demonstrated extensively throughout Canada, the United States, Australia, New Zealand, Great Britain, France, Norway and Israel. In 2003, he participated in the French Association of Turned Wood’s conference Artistic Woodturning Worldwide in Puy St. Martin, France.
Hosaluk has also been the coordinator of the biennial International Wood Furniture/Turning Conference since 1982.
Hosaluk is a member of the Royal Canadian Academy of Arts and earlier this year became an Honorary Lifetime Member of the Saskatchewan Crafts Council. He is active on the Steering Committee of the Furniture Society of North America, and is on its Advisory Board. He is recipient of the Saidye Bronfman Award, the highest award for craft in Canada and the Lieutenant Governor’s Award for Lifetime Achievement in Saskatchewan.
Hosaluk’s work has recently been profiled in numerous publications including Fine Woodworking; American Craft; and Woodwork magazines. Hosaluk is also the subject of a book published in 2002 by Guild Publishing, titled Scratching the Surface: Michael Hosaluk.
He lives and has his studio near Saskatoon, Saskatchewan.

English Longbow at the Victoria and Albert Museum, 200th video!
To celebrate my 200th video I decided to dust off some old footage that I never really felt was good enough to use (well before decent mobile phones or a proper video cam) but I want it to be kept and seen for posterity, I mean, when else am I going to have something I made in the prestigious V&A Museum in London??!!
We were asked to help out with a commissioned piece of work for the V&A, by the way the exhibition is long gone, please don't go looking for it. We made the bows and arrows and were consultants on the overall shooting stance etc of the mannequin.
I Love the political point the artist, Yinka Shonibare, is making, the exhibition was called `Uncomfortable Truths` , featuring slave owning/ex slave owning aristocrats in batik type print and without their heads.
The bow is permanently bent in position, that was quite a challenge, something we have been called on again to do for museums.
Again, sorry for the poor quality of my video, but, going to London on my own and walking into that room with my work in it, well, the video needs to be preserved.

Bath Tour.
Bath Tour, taken on our city sight seeing tour around the beautiful city of Bath.
Bath is the largest city in the ceremonial county of Somerset, England, known for its Roman-built baths. In 2011, the population was 88,859.Bath is in the valley of the River Avon, 97 miles (156 km) west of London and 11 miles (18 km) south-east of Bristol. The city became a World Heritage Site in 1987.
The city became a spa with the Latin name Aquae Sulis (the waters of Sulis) c. 60 AD when the Romans built baths and a temple in the valley of the River Avon, although hot springs were known even before then.
Bath Abbey was founded in the 7th century and became a religious centre; the building was rebuilt in the 12th and 16th centuries. In the 17th century, claims were made for the curative properties of water from the springs, and Bath became popular as a spa town in the Georgian era. Georgian architecture, crafted from Bath stone, includes the Royal Crescent, Circus, Pump Room and Assembly Rooms where Beau Nash presided over the city's social life from 1705 until his death in 1761. Many of the streets and squares were laid out by John Wood, the Elder, and in the 18th century the city became fashionable and the population grew. Jane Austen lived in Bath in the early 19th century. Further building was undertaken in the 19th century and following the Bath Blitz in World War II.
The city has software, publishing and service-oriented industries. Theatres, museums and other cultural and sporting venues have helped make it a major centre for tourism, with more than one million staying visitors and 3.8 million day visitors to the city each year.
There are several museums including the Museum of Bath Architecture, the Victoria Art Gallery, the Museum of East Asian Art, the Herschel Museum of Astronomy and the Holburne Museum. The city has two universities – the University of Bath and Bath Spa University – with Bath College providing further education. Sporting clubs include Bath Rugby and Bath City F.C. while TeamBath is the umbrella name for all of the University of Bath sports teams.
