Someone essentially help to make seriously articles I would state.This is the first time I frequented your web page and thus far? I amazed with the research you made to make this particular publish extraordinary.Excellent job!

Hi Tracy,

I was sent some stuff by the Jerwood Space and recognised your name on the post out. I followed some links to check out if this is the the same Tracy I shared a studio space with at Goldsmiths… Yes it is you. I doubt you’ll remember me … I half hoped that you would still be sporting the short hair and well fitted suit… Anyway its great that you’ve continued and grown with your practice. I really like your stuff. Beautiful. All the best

Claudette

Funny to read about you after so many years – last and only time: Kapp Lee 1969 together with Johan Ødegård and Anders Randers Heen – and my husky Rip.
I live far out on the Norwegian coast on a small island with Tone – who is pictorial artist (www.tonetoft.no) If you ever come this way – wellcome!

Besides changing the Lord’s prayer the Christian missionaries ought to have swapped heaven and hell around. I can imagine how attractive the hot hell will be for the Inuit.

Comment on Painting a bigger picture by Nick Cook

Marcus, as a counterpoint to Cape Farewell you might consider a trip to the Sahara Desert and consider the fact that the current entire world’s energy use is equivalent to the sun’s energy shining on 0.6% of the Sahara! Put another way, the world receives approximately 10,000 times more energy from the sun than we use. To paraphrase the brilliant engineer Buckminster Fuller “there is no energy crisis, just a crisis of ignorance”, and I tend to agree with him.
Changing what we do is only one approach to the problem, the other part is how we do things, the bottom line is we need to cut our carbon emissions but this doesn’t necessarily equate to not driving a 4×4, we just need a low carbon version of it. If you say to people you can carry on doing what you’re doing just use this gadget instead of the one you’re using at the moment, it basically does the same thing but you will not be killing the planet and it won’t cost you any more, climate change would disappear overnight, metaphorically speaking. The role of scientists and engineers in the solution to the problem I believe is to come up with planet friendly ways of doing things without Joe Public having to make drastic changes to their lifestyle.
A classic example of this, mentioned in David McKay’s book “Sustainable Energy Without the Hot Air, free to download at http://www.withouthotair.com“, is the standby function on televisions. Firstly, the amount of energy used by TV is on standby is very small compared to the size the problem we have to solve and secondly, there is no reason why the TVs could not have been designed with standby that consumes at least 1000 times less power than they did/do [#1], all it would take and was a few bob extra spent on standby circuit making standby power consumption totally insignificant, so the real problem isn’t standby it is the way it is done.
Don’t get me wrong, we do need to reduce our energy demand but mainly because this gives us a faster route to achieving zero fossil carbon energy, i.e. the less RE power plants (no Marcus not churches, Renewable Energy, the new RE ) we have two build a faster will reach our target. Put simply, fundamentally we do not have a shortage of renewable energy just the means to harvest economically at the moment but I’m sure not too far away from this goal, the main thing holding us up is human nature not science.
However with the current population size and growth rate the real challenge will be finding enough food and water.

#1 I know this is correct because as a Electronics design/development engineer I have actually developed circuits operating the same principles as a TV remote which achieved these levels of power consumption.
