Sharing the season: Agencies could use your help
Minimal Illumination

I cycled down to the South Bank to check out the Sonic Illuminations event at the BFI on Saturday – Sonic Illuminations
It’s a hot day and this may account for not a lot of people turning up. I pick up some bits and pieces of information and decide to sit outside and read and make notes rather than sit in a darkened room.
In the days before the internet these events would be a rare opportunity to see some experimental work, hear people talk about what they’re doing and maybe learn something. Nowadays, with the internet, the opportunities for learning abound; finding texts, images and movies is quick and easy. Making something from this diverse range of material, learning from it, is, as always, down to your individual concerns and interests.
Well that’s the argument I made to myself for sitting comfortably outside with a beaker of tea and contemplating what I may have missed, and what I gained.

Pair hopes Macon comic convention could become economic superhero
Digging around the Economic Stimulus Toolbox, sorting past the big, heavy stuff like bailouts and low-interest rates, there’s a tiny, little thing in the bottom: comic books. Doesn’t seem like much, and few city leaders would be willing to bank on its financial prowess, but writer Rhett Thomas and museum curator Eric O’Dell believe it should be in the conversation about ways to bring money back …
