 Selfridges asbestos fears21.10.2008 Today in the newspaper is the answer. Yes the answer to why our window at Selfridges has come to a rather tragic end.As the Telegraph Says : "Asbestos can cause cancer", and as the graph shows smoking & asbestos almost definately causes cancer, damn it. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/finance/newsbysector/retailandconsumer/3228586/Selfridges-closes-window-displays-over-asbestos-fears.html |

Object @ selfridges08.10.2008The objects from a project we did last year are down at Selfridges as another segment in KithKin Reveals. Selfridges London, The objects are made from combinations of products all linked either by viusal or cultural narratives. This project was called "Like a glove" or "What have you done", no one can decide. In either case a book of the results is available to download from SomeRightsReserved. http://www.kith-kin.co.uk/shop/object/ |
Chrono Shredder @ Selfridges07.10.2008 So one of the segments in our Reveal installation at Selfridges that has been up and running for a while is the Chrono Shredder by Susanna Hertrich.The Chrono_Shredder is a device that makes past time tangible. It is a hybrid between calendar, clock and waste producing automaton. It has no on/off-button, thus it is unstoppable, just like time. It features the 365 days of the year represented on a paper-roll. The paper-roll is led through a hacked paper-shredder, which is programmed to use exactly 24 hours to shred one "day".http://www.susannahertrich.com/html/chrono_shredder.html |
