About Me:: Former VEC Operative

Instigator of M.A.I.C. (Mail Art Intelligence Centre): collation project set up to monitor activities of subversive individuals within the VEC itself and the 'eternal network' in general.

"And now he's back,
From cyberspace,
Da da da da da da da,
That same ol' look upon his face,"

What you think? ....looks a bit dodgy, doesn't he?

Yes Indeed!

Still finding my feet around this place at the moment so I apologise if things may change at short notice.

In the meantime, the 'Stuff and Nonsense' photographic album provides various assorted items of possible historical interest and a few meriting further investigation - like my discovery of the mysterious dusty black plastic bag hidden in the attic a few years back. Don't worry though. It wasn't a dismembered corpse. Ha ha ha (...that was a joke).

I also intend to regularly update my blog of interesting correspondents with whom I have struck up an e-mail friendship recently, particularly the delightful Mr RusselWhoppingErectileorgan.

Lastly I have also included a few items of audio entertainment (courtesy of VEC UK). These may be suitable for Christmas parties and the like.

Cheerio!

Correspondence - Day 11

From the many correspondences of the past day, it appears my suspicions about the person’s dubious morals are now confirmed. After Scot's revelations only yesterday, I now learn Edwardo Hatfield, Gay Mcnally, and a host of others have also succumbed to the person's magnetic charms. Gay even confided to me that once she saw the person naked she could not resist! No word from Noel about the whole sorry affair but I expect he'll be soon thanking me for his lucky escape!

Evidently Antonio B… Continue

Correspondence - Day 10

An alarming correspondence arrives this morning from RichardvNjMiller entitled Say farewell to ED!

As you might expect, I was a little concerned that poor Ed might be suffering a bout of ill health, but to my relief I read on to learn

Agree to be sick! Noway!

A very positive attitude, indeed! I ask Richard to pass on my best wishes to Ed and his family.…

Correspondence - Day 9

Amongst the many correspondences I receive displaying 'art studies' - usually of the female form (and with digital photography as it is nowadays, most of a very high quality indeed!) my eye was caught by this series of philosophical musings on a common theme:

'lifehappy' says Fredric Patrick

'behappy' says Lucille Hatfield

While ‘mistress of brevity’, Haley Weber leaves it at a simple 'happy'…

Correspondence - Day 8

No reply from RusselWhoppingErectileorgan following my email outlining the details I had uncovered regarding HugoRodExtensive’s devious scheme. Not to worry though. I expect there has been quite a fuss at his research department following my disclosure and I fully expect Hugo to be given his marching orders ...pronto! Personally, I have little sympathy for the slimy fellow. Good riddance, I say!

Noel Hines keeps me updated on his personal life in a series of corres…

Correspondence - Day 7

Just an observation. It has occurred to me that in this 'age of the information super highway' there is simply no excuse for the work-shy (or artist) not to obtain gainful employment. For instance, I learn that for a just one hour a day 'surfing the web' anyone can earn more than enough to keep them in a comfortable lifestyle with ample free time to spend on watching television or art projects.

In fact, if you are smart you will never have to work again. For…

I also like to touch artworks...such as Constable's hjaywain, and Picasso's Guernica.........i think a fluxus membership trial should be to spin the wheel, or leave a fake artwork, like Banksy does, or hide an object, or replace an information poster with a fake one, etc etc....place your own items for sale in the gallery shop, etc..... ron

At 9:56pm on July 18, 2008, Ron Crowcroft said…: stories i heard of the Leeds interviews included: a tutor walking a sheep around the room (apparently there were sheep on the grounds for some reason). Also one where this terrified Scottish applicant had travelled all day, had had no sleep, and was most perturbed when jeff Nuttall dressed as a tea lady in the interview, and kept offering him a cup of tea, then taking it away before he could get hold of it !! and of course thyere are the several nuttall stories, and then visiting lecturer (or lecher) john Latham, i don't recall which student became pregnant by him..... but in a retrospective of his in New York last year i nicked some sand from one of his pieces and sprinkled it around another room.... he was dead by then, but it felt as good as spinning Duchamp's bicycle wheel at The Museum of Modern Art..... ron

At 10:49am on July 18, 2008, Ron Crowcroft said…: Well, while doing my Foundation Year in Sussex 72-73, I read the article in the Sunday Times magazine (I think it was), all about the goings on up there in Leeds......and one of my tutors, exhasperated by myself and another (Tony Bradley)'s work, told me to apply to Leeds as it was the only art college that would accept me !! So I did, and in the interview they did not look at my work at all, just my notebooks....they asked if I wanted my portfolio work seen, that I had lugged up from Sussex, and I said not really, as it contained very carefully organized course work of a boring nature......of course, I should have guessed how it would go when I entered the interview room and one of the tutors said" Oh, God, not another one, aren't we getting any women today?" Of course it went "radical" from that point on......and the rest, as they say, is hysterical.....
