What does it mean to ‘perform’ an object? Can we perform objects without the need for direct physical interventions and material change; and should we? A free-to-attend and open-to-all on-line webinar. 📷 Hulu. @Conservators_UK icon.org.uk/events/dynamic-o…. .

On the absolute off-chance, I don't suppose anyone in my 'network' lives in Hull and is coming down to my neck of the woods at any point in the near future ? The Honda Insight 'guru' has a number of batteries that would fit my Honda Insight project ...... Thanks.

Had a wonderful visit to the V&A yesterday in the company of a historian (and practitioner) of enamelling. I learnt so much and these objects never fail to impress in the craftsmanship.
