Fascinating, terrifying.
Taliban arming with $7(?) billion of abandoned US military equipment. 'Suicide martyrs' ride by on motorbikes as once American planes fly overhead in military display.

@BexAtkinsonLord hey!! I will be your way doing some movement stuffs on Iona for some days - will be wandering around the proximity between 4 - 9th. I'll drop into An Tobar and say hey.
And, About Dry Grasses.
An unraveling film that meanders and spikes. Not sure about the deconstruction bit but enjoyed it nonetheless.
Dir : Nuri Bilge Ceylan.

In the jungle of applications, I had an informative, friendly & very worthwhile pre-meeting with a funding org. We don't want anyone to waste time if their not eligible, they said. Write the app for humans they said. We're interested in you as artists they said. Oh it was nice.
Let's talk about ACE project funding. Is it fit for purpose? Or is it broken as many people tell me. What would make it better? More money obviously. But what else. If you don't secure what is the impact on careers. Have you been affected? DM me if you want to talk about this.
We are disappointed by @suffolkcc decision to implement a 100% cut to core cultural investment in Suffolk.
We join our colleagues across the sector in urging the Council to immediately reconsider this cut which will cause irreparable damage to the cultural fabric of our county.
LOOKING FOR A HORSE!!! In / near Great Yarmouth for this Sunday (ideally to shoot in one location outside of a church) but we could come to stables / location if preferred. Fee offered.
