To see them and more shots of the lovely Hugo (above), just click on the &lt;a href="http://s55.photobucket.com/albums/g148/Casstration/"&gt;Pictures&lt;/a&gt; link over there somewhere. -----&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If anyone has any more pics, please let us know and we'll arrange to put them up as well.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt; Enjoy!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19510787-114375814870614044?l=casstration.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://casstration.blogspot.com/feeds/114375814870614044/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19510787&amp;postID=114375814870614044' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19510787/posts/default/114375814870614044'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19510787/posts/default/114375814870614044'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://casstration.blogspot.com/2006/03/caught-on-camera_30.html' title='Caught on Camera!'/><author><name>Casstration</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03640211328243824588</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19510787.post-114313267694876743</id><published>2006-03-23T16:48:00.000Z</published><updated>2006-03-23T16:51:16.966Z</updated><title type='text'>A Futile Gesture - Casstration Party!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4892/1932/1600/AFutilegESTURE.1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4892/1932/400/AFutilegESTURE.0.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19510787-114313267694876743?l=casstration.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://casstration.blogspot.com/feeds/114313267694876743/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19510787&amp;postID=114313267694876743' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19510787/posts/default/114313267694876743'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19510787/posts/default/114313267694876743'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://casstration.blogspot.com/2006/03/futile-gesture-casstration-party.html' title='A Futile Gesture - Casstration Party!'/><author><name>Casstration</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03640211328243824588</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19510787.post-114297809454489177</id><published>2006-03-21T21:50:00.000Z</published><updated>2006-03-21T21:54:54.583Z</updated><title type='text'>Sounds Screens</title><content type='html'>when: Fri 24 Mar (6-10pm)&lt;br /&gt;where: E:vent (96 Teesdale Street, E2, 020.7613.0300) Tube: Bethnal Green &lt;a href="http://f.flavorpill.net/map/index.php?map_id=48263&amp;sid=chairman_collar@yahoo.co.uk&amp;amp;jid=JOBID_AUTO_REPLACE" target="_blank"&gt;map&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;price: free&lt;br /&gt;links: &lt;a href="http://eventnetwork.org.uk/threshold/exhibitions.php" target="_blank"&gt;Event info&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tucked away out the back of Bethnal Green, Sound Screens is part of Threshold, a series of experimental sonic soireés sending reverb through the East End during March and continuing through April.

explores  themes of migration, desire and power, particularly their relation to issues of  cultural constructs in our society. &lt;span style=""&gt;It  is based on the Changing the Guard ceremony and will &lt;/span&gt;involve &lt;span style=""&gt;thirty two men - mostly second generation  immigrants - &lt;/span&gt;choreographed by Tom Dale and the artist using the symbolism  and movements of the actual ceremony brought in the middle of &lt;span style=""&gt;Trafalgar Square&lt;/span&gt;.  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;The Big Buzzard Horns band will  accompany the piece. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style=""&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt; &lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;The  artist is using a situation based in reality, which he manipulates to such an  extent that it becomes intensely dreamlike and unreal by inserting a dialectical  process, which based on paradox corresponds to the unstable nature of any  culture. In &lt;i&gt;I am a believer&lt;/i&gt; he exploits the endless possibilities that  lie outside the range of what are usually considered “normal” situations. He is  therefore suggesting the ambivalent nature of reality  itself.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style=""&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;The  use of this particular group of men to re-enact the Changing the Guard ceremony  which normally symbolizes the protection of the monarchy, becomes somehow  surreal and unbelievable; the fact that is made real opens up other cultural  possibilities which are only limited by our imagination. Since we are all  members of British society maybe one day this will be the case! Furthermore, it  demonstrates what would happen when those who are usually only the spectators of  these ceremonies become the ones who carry out these symbolic rituals. Reza  Aramesh attempts to disrupt any dogmatic view of culture through the  interference of a conceptual impossibility, causing fixed cultural phenomena to  inherit unfixed and improbable conclusion.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style=""&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;The performance will be followed by a  panel discussion on Saturday 4th March, &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;6.30pm&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt; at the  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;ICA&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt; with Maxa Zoller  art critic, JJ Charlesworth art critic, and artists Reza Aramesh and Mustafa  Hulusi. The panel will be chaired by Vivienne Gaskin&lt;b style=""&gt;, &lt;/b&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;"&gt;Director of Performing  Arts, International Projects and New Media at the  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;" lang="EN-GB"&gt;ICA&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: normal;" lang="EN-GB"&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span lang="EN-GB"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style=""&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt; &lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;The  project is co-ordinated by Irini-Mirena  Papadimitriou&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style=""&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;font-size:100%;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size:100%;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:Times New Roman;"&gt;&lt;i&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;I am  a Believer&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/i&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt; is  kindly supported by the Arts Council of England,  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;Sheffield&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;Hallam&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt;University&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="" lang="EN-US"&gt; and Angels the  Costumiers.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19510787-114116585177420906?l=casstration.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://casstration.blogspot.com/feeds/114116585177420906/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19510787&amp;postID=114116585177420906' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19510787/posts/default/114116585177420906'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19510787/posts/default/114116585177420906'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://casstration.blogspot.com/2006/02/trafalgar-square-i-am-believer.html' title='Trafalgar Square - I am a Believer'/><author><name>Casstration</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03640211328243824588</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19510787.post-114108477884169339</id><published>2006-02-27T23:17:00.000Z</published><updated>2006-02-27T23:59:38.923Z</updated><title type='text'>Late at Tate this Friday: Goths!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4892/1932/1600/vampire-dracula.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4892/1932/320/vampire-dracula.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;tt&gt;&lt;a href="http://tate.org.uk/britain/eventseducation/lateattatebritain/lateattatebritain2006march.htm"&gt; Late At Tate&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To tie in with the Gothic Nightmares exhibition currently on at Tate&lt;br /&gt;Britain, Late at Tate Britain on Friday 3rd of March has a gothic feel to&lt;br /&gt;it&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Martin Sexton presents 'New Gothic' which combines music and performance&lt;br /&gt;and features Truth Machine's 'Heraldic Unicorn Lion Grace System',&lt;br /&gt;described variously as 'the high-concept band to end all high-concept&lt;br /&gt;bands' and as a cult religious group by others.

More relentlessly than any other author he poses the most important question: why are we here? He spent his entire career chipping away at this one question to poignant and hilarious effect. He is an author whose work shares much with visual artists and I think it would be completely appropriate to go and see some of the events in the coming months. Some of these will be subsidised by the union others will be very cheep with our student cards, some of the events have already sold out so I am having to make decisions now!&lt;br /&gt;One talk titled ‘Beckett’s Influence’ will consider Beckett’s affect on writers, thinkers and visual artists and I think this will be useful for many of you. With our student cards it will be only £3 and so I shall not get extra funds for it. However beforehand we should see one of his plays perhaps Endgame or Waiting for Godot. We could also see one of the triple bills of film versions of his plays.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Please let me know if you want be involved so I know roughly the numbers for buying the tickets, and spread the word if you know anybody who would like to have the opportunity; or, if you have any preferences for particular plays.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Have a look at these links if you don’t know who he is or want to have a look at the program of events:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://www.barbican.org.uk/beckett/home"&gt;Beckett Barbican&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://wwwcip.informatik.uni-erlangen.de/%7Emsfriedl/whatistheword.html"&gt;Poem: What is the word&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samuel_Beckett"&gt;Wikipedia Beckett&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;    Live and clean forget from day to day,&lt;br /&gt;    Mop life up as fast as it dribbles away&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19510787-113952562464947918?l=casstration.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://casstration.blogspot.com/feeds/113952562464947918/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19510787&amp;postID=113952562464947918' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19510787/posts/default/113952562464947918'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19510787/posts/default/113952562464947918'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://casstration.blogspot.com/2006/02/samuel-beckett-season.html' title='Samuel Beckett Season'/><author><name>Casstration</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03640211328243824588</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19510787.post-113939874581569009</id><published>2006-02-08T11:38:00.000Z</published><updated>2006-02-08T11:46:49.223Z</updated><title type='text'>Student Union opportunities</title><content type='html'>The Communications Officer of the Student Union, Maria Gianelli, is looking for students interested in designing promotional posters for union events, and in writing art-related articles/reviews for the Union magazine.

They send you one email a day with a list of all the jobs, internships, calls for submissions, etc. that they have received for that day. Through it I took part in the opening show of a little gallery on Finchley Road, and got a friend of mine an internship with a photography studio. I continue to find it useful, it has built up my C.V. significantly, and I imagine that it will be helpful when I have finished my degree and am looking for a proper job or to take part in shows.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Recent items of note:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Call for a Punch and Judy performer for the private view of an exhibition in east London&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Call for submissions to a charity exhibition in a London hospital with the title ‘Heart’&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Here is a link to the sign up page, once you have entered your details go to 'my account' and make sure you set your membership type to 'Digest' and &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;not&lt;/span&gt;

We trust you had a good one.&lt;br /&gt;Many thanks to all who attended (and persevered with) the percussive nightmare that was the Casstration Christmas drinks. After a couple of hours of white noise, and many a futile plead for peace, we emigrated to the more aurally pleasing environs of The Castle. It seemed work out in the end, and we hope everyone had a good night. We certainly enjoyed ourselves and it was great to see so many people there.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Just a couple of very dull but very important things to kick off the new year:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;1) In order to make Casstration official, and therefore eligible for Union funding, we have to hold an AGM (Annual General Meeting), which must be attended by at least 20 members of the society. We attempted to hold this twice before Christmas, but for some reason unbeknown to us, the Union have not been very helpful in getting this done. But rest assured that we are pressing them to help us out so we can get the bureaucratic stuff out if the way. We already have a few artists that are interested in giving talks, but we can’t confirm dates, etc until we have had the AGM.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2) We have attempted to email everyone that has signed up for Casstration. However, a substantial number of emails have failed to get to the recipient. We think this is the result of 1 of 2 possible reasons: 1) your inbox is filled to its capacity and therefore cannot accept any more mail, and/or 2) we can’t read your hand&lt;span class="down" style="display: block;" id="formatbar_CreateLink" title="Link" onmouseover="ButtonHoverOn(this);" onmouseout="ButtonHoverOff(this);" onmouseup="" onmousedown="CheckFormatting(event);FormatbarButton('richeditorframe', this, 8);ButtonMouseDown(this);"&gt;&lt;/span&gt;writing and have typed it into the address line incorrectly. If it is possible that either of these applies to you, please let us know so we can rectify any mistakes. We wouldn’t want you to miss out on anything.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In the meantime, feel free to post stuff on here. We’re a bit lonely at the moment.&lt;br /&gt;If you have any queries or ideas for future Casstration events, and if anyone has any photos from The George/The Castle, please email them to us at casstration@gmail.com&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beth, Jon &amp;amp; Charlotte&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19510787-113700103738706073?l=casstration.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://casstration.blogspot.com/feeds/113700103738706073/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19510787&amp;postID=113700103738706073' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19510787/posts/default/113700103738706073'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19510787/posts/default/113700103738706073'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://casstration.blogspot.com/2006/01/happy-new-year_11.html' title='Happy New Year'/><author><name>Casstration</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03640211328243824588</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19510787.post-113361900368438744</id><published>2005-12-03T14:05:00.000Z</published><updated>2005-12-05T12:00:49.660Z</updated><title type='text'>Evenin' All</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4892/1932/1600/art-garfunkel.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/4892/1932/400/art-garfunkel.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hello there.&lt;br /&gt;Welcome to the Casstration blog. Here you will be able to find details of forthcoming events, artist talks, parties, gallery visits, trips, etc etc. We also want to encourage all Casstrates to use this blog as a forum in which to discuss work, theories and ideas independently of academic structures. More of that to come in the very near future. Lastly, if you know someone who hasn’t signed up for Casstration yet, we suggest you have exceedingly strong words with them...&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And now, some dates for your diaries:&lt;br /&gt;13/12/05 - 2nd Year open studio show, 6-8pm, 3rd floor studio.&lt;br /&gt;15/12/05 - Christmas drinks in The George, Commercial Road (same side of the road as Commercial Road building, but another 5-10 minute walk) from 6pm.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hope to see you there,&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Beth, Jon &amp; Charlotte&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19510787-113361900368438744?l=casstration.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://casstration.blogspot.com/feeds/113361900368438744/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19510787&amp;postID=113361900368438744' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19510787/posts/default/113361900368438744'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19510787/posts/default/113361900368438744'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://casstration.blogspot.com/2005/12/evenin-all.html' title='Evenin&apos; All'/><author><name>Casstration</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/03640211328243824588</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry></feed>
