All their words are lies, their acts destructive.
They are the stealers of dreams
The crushers of hope
All we can do is make new dreams and inspire hope. Will you help me?
Be positive
Be creative
Be constructive
Be kind

A friend suggested it’s sign of my age that I watch Gardener’s World instead of TOTP.
But I’d watch TOTP if it was still on. Or The Tube. Or The Old Grey Whistle Test. Wouldn’t you? Is @BBCLater the only programme on TV to introduce current artists?

@Hanifkureishi Thanks for a beautiful description of an abysmal situation; one that many can sympathise with. A sense of injustice is honest, yet, when everything is working fine, that is the more extraordinary state of being. We’re all temporarily able-bodied. Sending you a light kiss.
I’ve just been reading through all the @prize_novel feedback on my first chapters. Thank you to the Cheshire Prize readers for your encouraging and constructive comments. 😁

@KitdeWaal Such a beautiful expression of this way of living with loss. When my Dad died, someone told me not to try to fill the space he left, but to learn to leave space and live with his absence. It was an important lesson. #grief#loss#absence
Anyone else find that the 300-word synopsis is much more difficult to write than any chapter of 3,000 words?
Feel like my eyeballs are popping out.

Pls RT, as there is a real danger that lives could be put at serious risk if vulnerable people don't know about this, and their secret phone lifeline goes off 🙏🏻

“My wish for humans: stop the war […] it’s not difficult to understand but nobody is stopping the military developments so there’s not much hope there.”
- Ai Weiwei
A true artist who doesn’t flinch at difficult questions. No matter how hard the answer.
#aiweiwei@IntellForum
There are a few intriguing questions asked tonight on #AI and the future of art. Ai Wei Wei talks about his thoughts on AI, and its ability -- or inability -- to capture a sense of creativity and humanity.
#ArtActivism#SocialChange#cambridge@IntellForum@JesusCollegeCam
Am paraphrasing, but thank you #AiWeiwei for this truism: ‘by its very nature and name, AI is artificial and so can’t ever have humanity’.
To think that humans should choose art generated by machines over art created by humans is fairly abhorrent to me.

Ai WeiWei: "We all exist as the old and the new at the same time. It all depends on how you look at things... It depends on our ways of interpretation."
@IntellForum@JesusCollegeCam I wonder if #AiWeiwei might consider the act of toppling statues a creative act? Since it is an act that reflects contemporary attitudes to the past exploitations (for example)?
