Big Brother database cancelled by ministers - UK...
Rated • 1 review • politics • independent.co.uk
Hello, hello hello! What's this? Plans to store all our emails, 'phone calls etc. ad infinitum have been dropped? Somebody actually had such plans? And we are to believe that they no longer have?
Well, it may be a very distant issue from those I usually deal with, like modern art and the problems of unbridled theorizing related to the Mona Lisa et al, but I'd really like to get my oar in here and say I think most politicians are quite inane and bankers are generally crooks, before any database is destroyed. Have you taken note of that?

Frank Auerbach - in the thick of it - Features, Art...
Rated • 1 review • painting, arts, fine art, art • independent.co.uk
About the Auerbach show at the Courtauld Gallery.
From the page: Auerbach's painting is to be looked at, but what it depicts is predominantly not visual. "I felt there was an area of experience - the haptic, the tangible, what you feel when you touch somebody next to you in the dark - that hadn't perhaps been recorded in painting before." Haptic: relating to touch, grasp, hold.
