The New Forms Festival is an annual festival forum highlighting emerging forms at the junction of art, culture and technology.” It’d be nice to see some South African arts/academic representation there - the call for works and abstracts is current.

Last night, some local artists came round for a pot-luck dinner - I love the mutual respect for work that is a strong presence here in Johannesburg, almost an awe-like, sincere appreciation, between artists. Granted, there are down sides to any small scene, but this evening brought out all the positives. I hope to see more of those cats :) It’s a small world after all…
