1. Last Sunday a sprinkling of wavelings gathered at Aldgate East for a 2 but in reality a 3 hour guided walk. The walk called Anti-Facists Footprints, took us round the East End of London from Gardiners Corner to Cable Street. It was a beautiful springlike day (mostly) and with our passionate guide David we relived 1930’s London, heard about the prejudices, the politics, the poverty and the power of community.

  10. Felix has been lucky enough to have some time explore the empty space in Tate Modern. Moved by Ai Weiwei’s exhibition with 100 million seeds each hand-crafted in porcelain, he began a forensic scan of each of the tiniest gaps in this largest of spaces.
