looking forward to seeing some of you.

For those that can't make it due to being overseas, or another engagement.Do not worry this is the first of a series of small events to be spread through the next year.

So there will be an oppertunity to visit.


A while back I had a notion. as a MacUser i fell in love with he way the Os X slide show screen saver displayed images. having just joined deviant Art.com, at site and community that is pro artist, and creativity, and is actually one of the best dam things I have found on the internet. I had the ability to look around and see what other artist were doing as well as find inspiration to my own creative soul. So i thought to add to this amazing wealth of diversity.



At the time my work with the DVJ's project was sporadic, but the need, and will to project art was foremost at my mind. It was at this time I decided to start and create the Screen Ghost Projection Guild. This is a selection of work based on my favourite images and work from my fellow creators on the site.



This is just based on what I have been able to view. A drop in the ocean for the wealth of talent stored and actively working there.

My idea was to take my favs and project them on buildings around cities during the long winter nights. Unfortunately the first year that I planed to do this , my projector was damaged,. hence project delayed. However chance came around that I took charge and responsibility for a space. Cobbling to together the most basic of tools to the do the job the Screen Ghost Projection Guild has had a permanent indoor residency. Since February 2008 as part of my stewardship of The Vestry Hospitality Rooms at The Fortress Studios . London . UK I have been able to run a well received and acclaimed virtual gallery using the ideas that were the equaision for the SGPG.



Interfacing a wide selection of art to a public community is quite a dangerous thing because of preconception. Some of the the work featured comes from the fetish vault and there are quite challenging pictures of a sexual nature. The inclusion of these was quite interesting. As on first viewing many of these were seen as being pornographic, but then on repeated viewing the true beauty of each image in it's own right was realized. Over the the past months I have had many hypnotised by the play of images and the juxtaposition between pieces of work. Sometimes it is uncanny. As if a secret message was involved. Especially if music is added to the equation.

I have taken their art to raves gigs video shoots and an audience that couldn't t be reached directly by the web. Thanks to their creations we have been able to make some beautiful moments in time. I just wish I could have recorded them all, but I do belive the best is yet to come.



As wel as using it as a release point for diesekonstruction/art productions this year. Which for who're interested there is an on going situational piece on going in the Vestry, involving Decor and Media, as well as nu furniture workx.

This Project has taken up most of my time at the moment so I apologise for the late site update but folks it's been one BIG summer and this is just the beginning. THE RESISTANCE WILL NOT BE STERILE.



This is not art theft or art piracy. this is genuine free promotion of the artists involved in the the project. And no other criteria than I like that image. I enjoy it as a moment , a creation, as worthy and as valid as one of my own. After all, are we not told we are all equal. so everything and nothing is valid . We decide. We make the world and record it by our actions and our lives. The general message we try to pass between each other is love, I just wish we could all embrace it and forget what's gone.

But that's not the way of man. And this virtual gallery portrays that in a every strange and wonderful way.

The show is also populated with my own work and that of Ami Barwell a very talented music photographer who I met this year and was the first solo show as part of the virtual gallery

anyway for those of you in the uk or fancy a holiday across the pond I am Planing to hold a SGPG gathering on November 16th 2008 at the Vestry. It will also act as a deviant Art meet, I expect you all to turn up with hangovers or still drunk from the night before, any one found sober will be force to drive the rest of us home or somewhere.

for those who agreed to be part of this very special collaboration, I have tried to show your work in as many different situations as possible, and the response has been amazing. People love the work and athough now serious commisions have come from it a lot of intress in certain artist has been shown.




Hi all a happy Nu Nu to all sorry about this long overdue J update but I have been very busy making mischief and genrally encouraging bad behaviour in others, I have also been playing with the Utube ,programming my own TV which for those of you fed up with being brainwashed to by a sofa on a Bank Holiday and in need of cultural stimulation can be found at my main site diesekonstruction.universe. Here is something to consider on the way to Monkey Central.

In I originally contacted a few of you all with regard to projecting your work on buildings. My plans were put on hold due to the loss of a projector. This has now been resolved. Also the options have changed slightly,

I now run a venue and would like to project work from deviant art on the walls as a regular feature on a daily basis.

the original invite read as follows:-

I have been naughty, and now I would like to invite you to be naughty with me.

In 2006 I had an Idea for a xmas treat. I admire your work. each of you brings a special piece of inspiration to the spirit of the world. Some of you like my work. and feel the same about it. I wish t combine forces for a global ruse, and most definitely deviant attack on the world.

I have always liked the way the slideshow in the MAC OS X screensaver displays pictures I wish to use this process to project our work on an exceptionally large scale on buildings in London definitely, and other cities around the world as an installation I have made a small test film to illustrate the process, but wanted to know if any of you select bunch of deviants world like to contribute images to the work.

if you are interested let me know. I have set up The ScreenGhost Projection Guild ( SGPG ) to coordinate, and over see the project, and had as we have some common ground, i would like you all to be part of it - End

All contributors will be credited and a catalogue of work will be on display on site as well as direct access to DA. I can guarantee your work will be viewed by around 500 - 1000 people per month, most of whom will be professionals working with in the music industry. It is a great opportunity for anyone looking for cover work to get seen.

Also later in the year I will be offering exhibition space and shows space. The venue will com complete with bar, kitchen, and sound system, and is a perfect venue for small shows with a launch event.

The venue is located in central London near Hoxton's White Cube Gallery and is part of a Recording studio.

The work projected will be based on work in my Favorites List. If you have any objection to your work being exposed to a wider audience for free, or would like to know more about booking a show event please contact me at the following email address

THE 3 MONKEYS PROJECT

Foreword

in the summer of 2005 the chicken came home to roost. For a while we had been warned of terror attacks in London due to our actions elsewhere in support of our allies. In period of 48 hours we went from a nation of high charged emotional joy, to one of equally charged despair, confusion and anger.

But this is nothing new, everyday on a global scale the world is fueled, run, powered, and battered by similar swings of events. Only the locations and the actors in the unfinished drama transpose. Sometimes not even the characters change. There is always a hero. There is always a victim.

There is always a blind monkey who doesn’t see what’s
coming, or the injustice of the events, and systems that
surround it. A deaf animal that doesn’t hear the screams
of the rest of the world in pain, or warnings of change, so
missed the asking of the question why. A gaged ape that
can’t be heard above the din of sirens and calls for vengeance.

Shut up. Behave. Comply. We are told. an old image of our ancestors burns into our skulls. Children should be seen and not heard. Don’t look at that, you won’t understand. Who said you
could speak your not qualified. A constant barrage of rules and regulations, put downs and restraints that push pull and restrain our societies like a monkey on a chain dancing to an organ grinders tune, and banging a dented tin cup begging for peace and reason.

The images and forms in this collection are excretions from these forces and the pressure they have exerted on me as a man. With in them you may find my despairs, and my joys, my mischief and jokes. this introduction is not an explanation as the images and forms have their own identities which you will discover. Also until the work is fully assembled under one roof the full picture will not be realized. This is planned for 2007 but now includes announcements and previews at this site.

Early works, news, and production PR will be posted here. for more info on the project please use the following email address:
