On Thursday 6th August we'll have a go at creating a sculpture out of old communications technology waste - old TVs, computer bits etc. A bit like the Wee Man in the picture, but not quite on such a big scale perhaps. It should be really good fun, suitable for all ages. I put a post on Freecycle for stuff five minutes ago and have been offered four TVs already... If you have any junk sitting aroung waiting to be dumped please bring it along. We could also do with borrowing hot glue guns (to stick stuff together, not to be built into the sculpture...) if anyone has one please.
Incidentally, there are some great other art ideas on this website. I love the idea of moss grafitti!

Thanks for the enthusiasm Tim... Sounds like a great trip.
We've been offered quite a bit of stuff now - lots of TVs and monitors especially, if people want to get thinking about what we can make out of them. We can't safely break open the glass CRT tubes in TVs so they will have to remain fairly intact.
Do the sculpture in a field and then burn it, watching from a safe distance? That would be very artistic! ;o)
It sounds like it will be a fun evening.Will be interesting to see what is created out of our scrap. Chocs
Should be along, small glue gun in hand!!!!! Looking forward to it as its been sooooooo long!

Hey guys
I am planning to be there... As long as I have packed up my wordly belongings ready for moving on Fri :-) I have loads of bits at AYP that I was wondering what to do with, so will bring those along, which either we can use, or if the technophile-geeks can make use of, take them away! he he
