Postcard
A postcard with "Face Off" video still (image) on one side and original hand drawing with text in pen inspired by Banff, signed by Jacquelene Drinkall, each 105 x 150mm.
Poster by Ian Milliss
"Welcome to Kandos" poster by pioneering Australian conceptual artist and activist Ian Milliss (my friend). This highly collectable relic from Cementa_13 uses fiction to help bring an end to fossil fuels.
Digital print + story
Colour digital print with soft handwriting on the back about brainwave sculpture, airborn copper, buffalo horns as shoes (elements of Jacquelene Drinkall's artworks represented in this photo, just one aspect of her Masters by research exhibition at Canberra School of Art Gallery in 1999) together with reflections on the energy of mountain ranges - writing composed whilst in Banff.
New original drawing
I will make an original drawing in pen based very closely on this drawing using exactly the same style, image motifs and colour. As it will be hand drawn it will not be an absolutely the same. This is a drawing design I made for a new headpiece made from telecommunications wire, which has a draping exo-spine structure that cascades down the wearer's back.
2 colour photos
I will print this colour paper print of a woven object in progress, together with a second paper print of the final object, both in A4 format. I plan for the final object to consist of two conjoined headpieces, that will then be performed, as mentioned in my accepted proposal to Banff Research in Culture.
Black and white print
Documentation of my 2 hour grape eating performance at Ecole National Superieur des Beaux Arts, Paris, curated by Marina Abramovic. Also present is Serge Agostone who is reading a book on totalitarianism and democracy. Digital print in black and white at A3 size on 80gsm paper, signed on the back.

Art/QuantumPhysics Poster
I created this poster for the 2014 Australian Institute of Physics Conference "The Art of Physics" and it summarises my current research interest in telepathy and quantum physics. Einstein's 'spooky' interest in energy (E=mc2) was accompanied by the problem of telepathic potentials of entanglement, which is becoming less and less 'spooky' all the time. It will be printed at A2 size on 160gsm coated paper, and I will sign and number each. Limited edition, not a large print run!
