Originally trained in Physics, he holds a PhD in Arts from the Winchester School of Art (UK). His practice addresses the entwining of image surfaces with the living crust of the planet. His work encompasses different techniques, spanning from sound and video installations to computational processes such as machine learning, including assemblages where the living conflates with the animate.Together they have collaborated extensively, and their new book Living Surfaces: Images, Plants, and Environments of Media (can be found here) will be launching on 25th June. In this conversation they break down some of their thinking around the materiality of media being inherently connected to the sites they come from.. they talk about plants and living surfaces, of 'dynamic formations'. And how this book related to their practices as individuals.Link to the full text read at the beginning by Jussi Parikka, on Mater.digital: https://mater.digital/jussi-parikka/ On Abelardo Gil-Fournier's recent solo show at the Fundacion Cerezales- https://www.artforum.com/events/juan-jose-santos-mateo-abelardo-gil-fournier-fundacion-cerezales-2024-549901/ Operational Images book- https://www.upress.umn.edu/book-division/books/operational-images Seed, Image, Ground video essay- https://www.fotomuseum.ch/en/situations-post/seed-image-ground/They talk about Elemental Media through an example of: how the emergence of photography introduced the question among botonists: What if plants are somehow living photographs on their own?

Who is responsible for making a work of art? In each episode of this collaborative podcast series, one anthropologist, specialising in a particular cultural context, has a conversation with an artist of their choosing, exploring issues of authorship and responsibility in art. Ranging across geographical locations and creative practices, discussions address and unpack the conceptualisation of the artistic person, authorship as centred upon an individual or bounded group, and the development of responsibility for artworks during and after their making. Each episode brings a fresh perspective on where ideas come from, what agency an artist feels in the creation of their work, and how, and in which contexts, ownership and responsibility for the artwork are claimed. Ultimately, as a collection, the series encourages listeners to think about ‘the artist' and ‘the artwork' as dynamic processes in a relationship of authoring. Episode 6 features Bronagh Lawson with Kayla Rush Bronagh Lawson is an artist based in Belfast who has written a blog about the vibrant local contemporary visual arts scene for the last ten years.

We meet leading artist Jonathan Baldock who works across multiple platforms including sculpture, installation and performance. With work often taking on a biographical form, Jonathan Baldock addresses the trauma, stress, sensuality, mortality and spirituality around our relationship to the body and the space it inhabits.Baldock's work is saturated with humour and wit, as well as an uncanny, macabre quality that channels his longstanding interest in myth and folklore. He has an ongoing focus on the contrast between the material qualities of ceramic and fabric in his work. Concerned with removing the functional aspects of the materials he uses, Baldock instead works in a performative way through his sculptural assemblages, bringing the viewer, the object and the space they simultaneously occupy into question as a theatrical or ritualistic act.Jonathan Baldock was born in 1980 in Kent, UK. He lives and works in London. He graduated from Winchester School of Art with a BA in Painting (2000-2003), followed by the Royal College of Art, London with an MA in Painting (2003-2005).In 2021 Baldock had solo exhibitions at La Casa Encendida, Madrid, Spain and at Accelerator, Stockholm, Sweden. He participated in group shows in 2021 including ‘Threadbare' at Stephen Friedman Gallery, London; ‘Human Conditions of Clay' at Chapter Arts Centre, Cardiff, Wales and ‘Right About Now' at No.9 Cork Street, London. Baldock's work was included in the inaugural Towner International biennial at Towner Art Gallery, Eastbourne, UK in October 2020. Baldock's first solo exhibition with Stephen Friedman Gallery opened in September 2019 and presented a series of ceramic masks featuring bright colours and outlandish expressions. This show coincided with the presentation of a large-scale, interactive sculpture by Baldock at Fitzrovia Chapel, London during Frieze week. In the spring of 2019, Baldock's solo exhibition ‘Facecrime' opened at Camden Arts Centre, London following a Freelands Lomax Ceramics Fellowship. The exhibition travelled to Tramway, Glasgow in August 2019 and Bluecoat, Liverpool in March 2020. Follow @Jonathan_Baldock on Instagram.

This week, Maureen Taylor, The Photo Detective, is joined by Tom Butler, an artist whose work may be controversial to some listeners. Tom uses unidentified cabinet cards to create art, often altering the original image to enhance them, which begs the question if he is destroying the image, or creating something even better than before.Related Episodes:Bonus Episode: Stitching on Pictures with Stitchography by EmmaEpisode 153: Ellis Island Immigrant Photo IdentifiedLinks:Sign up for my newsletter.Watch my YouTube Channel.Like the Photo Detective Facebook Page so you get notified of my Facebook Live videos.Need help organizing your photos?

Sign up for photo consultation.About My Guest:For the last twelve years artist, Tom Butler has been appropriating anonymous Victorian cabinet cards with incorporated personal symbols such as hair, masks, flowers, and geometric abstractions, painted on the surface with gouache. In the process, he attempts to reveal the imagined personalities of the sitters while in the knowledge that he is cloaking them with parts of himself. He also makes self-portraits and uses cabinet cards and found photographs to create collages, sculptures, and rubbings to express both a love of the medium and a critique of photography as a whole.Butler was born in London, England and now lives in Portland ME, USA. He studied at Winchester School of Art, University of Southampton, Chelsea College of Art, UAL, and the Slade School of Fine Art, UCL. He exhibits internationally and his work can be found in collections such as The British Museum and Soho House.About Maureen Taylor:Maureen is a frequent keynote speaker on photo identification, photograph preservation, and family history at historical and genealogical societies, museums, conferences, libraries, and other organizations across the U.S., London, and Canada.  She's the author of several books and hundreds of articles and her television appearances include The View and The Today Show (where she researched and presented a complete family tree for host Meredith Vieira).  She's been featured in The Wall Street Journal, Better Homes and Gardens, The Boston Globe, Martha Stewart Living, Germany's top newspaper Der Spiegel, American Spirit, and The New York Times. Maureen was recently a spokesperson and photograph expert for MyHeritage.com, an internationally known family history website, and also writes guidebooks, scholarly articles, and online columns for such media as Smithsonian.com.

Alison McCauley has a BA Hons in visual arts from the Winchester School of Art, a BA Hons in creative arts – photography, from the Open College of the Arts, UK and a postgraduate diploma in visual arts – painting, Haute école d'Art et de Design, Geneva. Her approach to the people and locations she photographs is instinctive, open-ended and subjective. She weaves her images together to create non-linear, intuitive narratives. Alison's work often explores the idea of identity, belonging and memory and images are frequently infused with melancholy and feelings of restlessness and loss. Alison is especially interested in presenting her visual narratives in books that she makes by hand.Copies of Alison's books are in the Tate Library and Archive, the Bibliothèque Nationale de France and the Cannes Library.  She is a member of UP Photographers and a selection of her work is represented by Millennium Images.  Alison's work has been featured widely in print and online. Alison is currently based in Geneva and her new book, Anywhere But Here was recently published by Photo Editions.On episode 169, Alison discusses, among other things:How she found a publisher for Anywhere But HereWorking on zines and limited edition booksThe feeling of restlessness and not belongingLiving in GenevaGrowing up in MalaysiaSome of her unorthodox methodsHer background in paintingThe physical pleasure of making booksHer work at the Cannes film festivalHer current project in the south of France, Shimmer Website | Instagram | Facebook | New Book“I kind of don't want to get that beautiful feeling of being peaceful in a place and feeling great, because then I'd have no more impetus to keep searching and that's what's powering the work at the moment.”

Audio Version From Feb I will be the brand new Interim Head of an also brand new Department of Art & Media Technology at Winchester School of Art, University of Southampton. Hopefully if successful I will be able to make it a more permanent role (application and interview dependant) But from Feb to August I will still be Programme leader for BA Games Design & Art so I will be pretty busy however I have plans… At the end of Jan I should have internally submitted my PhD text and come the end of March be waiting on my viva dates hopefully end of Easter / early summer so come Sept I will finally officially be Dr. Procter. So if things go to plan I could be a Doctor running a new department with some exciting approaches to technology and humans from October. As anyone who has read my blog or knows me I am very keen to push back on big tech, surveillance capitalism and this is something that has been my conversation piece to enable me to be given the interim role so embedding ethical and humane technology thinking and criticality in the new Department will be fundemental. The Department already has amazing staff and students and a brilliant set of programmes of study. Combine this with new structures and new programmes to come starting in earnest in October 2022 it is all pretty exciting. Much hard work to come but it feels like an exciting new chapter awaits. Of course I'll keep people up to date on my blog if it all falls apart

Suzanna James of the eponymous  Suzanna James Knitwear (https://www.suzannajamesknitwear.com/)  has a thing about traceability - and it is a good thing. What is its origin? Whose hands did it pass through, and what is their story? An interest in the origin of her raw materials has meant Suzanna visited farms to meet those who had a literal hand in the journey from sheep to workshop. It even involved a trip from Cardiff to Peru to a village 4,000m up in the Andes. Shearing, spinning and community pride Peruvian style. Natural dyeing using the cochineal bug and native plants completes the picture. We had to reschedule a recording date for this episode of the Alpaca Tribe Podcast because she was cooking up some natural dye in her kitchen. Nettle, I believe. Her studies were in Fashion Design at Westminster and then specialising in Knitwear at Winchester School of Art. The project in Peru is Awamaki (https://awamaki.org/) Suzanna James KnitwearOn her beautiful website at Suzanna James Knitwear (http://suzannajamesknitwear.com(opens in a new tab)) , you can find examples of her work and the stories behind it. There is also this video, which I mentioned in the podcast introduction.  You can find Suzanna on instagram here @suzannajamesNatural DyesThe cochineal bugs are already dead when made into dye by the Peruvian ladies!! Suzanna is working with the dye because it is a new textiles piece documenting the project, with the natural dye being such a huge part of her learning, it became important to honour that wealth of knowledge and tradition within their community, when finding a natural dye that was fitting for their influence in the new piece, there was no other choice! Cochineal is part of their community and textiles identity so it had to be included!  We should also mention natural dyer Rebecca Desnos whose method Suzanna follows for the nettle dyeing. She is an amazing British natural dyer.  https://rebeccadesnos.com/blogs/journal/dyeing-with-nettles (https://rebeccadesnos.com/blogs/journal/dyeing-with-nettles) Regarding the other Peruvian dyes, there is Q'uolle Tika which the Antauta Knitters use for natural dye and a natural remedy. They also use the flower shape commonly as a motif in their designs. As mentioned in the podcast episode, they don't have as many plants available to them because of the altitude. Then the Awamaki cooperatives use 'culpa' as a natural mordant, it is a naturally occurring rock in the area, and they use this to mordant fibres for use with the other dye plants which include Ch'illca - green, Ahuaypili - purple, and Q'olle - yellow. They also use Q'olle with the Cochineal to create a brighter orange-red, and use salt, lemon juice and vinegar to change the pH of the Cochineal dye, which creates the 20 shades of Cochineal. Cochineal is the only dye that is readily available outside of Peru as the other plants are foraged for in smaller quantities. The alpaca yarn is dyed straight after being mordanted with the Culpa, except for Ahuaypili, which doesn't need a mordant.  Suzanna will be doing a series of blog posts soon about the dyeing processes, so do sign up for the community newsletter on her website if you are interested in finding out more.

On this week’s podcast we sit down with Dem Gerolemou, a visual designer at Google Health. It was after graduating from Winchester School of Art’s graphic design course, that Dem came across his true passion – product design.

NEW BOOK USES STORYTELLING AND POETRY TO SHOW CHILDREN THE BEAUTY OF SCIENCE Xientifica SOS was written by University of Winchester Researcher Daniel Phelps, and features illustrations by Beth Gibbs, a student at Winchester School of Art. It follows five schoolchildren, each with different gifts, who are thrust into a fight for survival that tests their minds, bodies, courage and teamwork. Aimed at 8-12 year olds, Xientifica SOS looks to inspire children to engage with science in a creative way, embedding over 50 scientific concepts, ideas and facts into the story. (https://www.educationonfire.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/D.jpg)           Daniel Phelps said: “This is not a science book, it is a children’s adventure story which has science in it. Children learn best whenever they are interested in something and enjoying themselves. That is what Xientifica SOS aims to do – to create such a learning environment. Children might not get excited about science facts when they read them in a science text book, however, they really do love fascinating and amazing science facts about the world around them.’ The book is unusual in that it combines learning with poetry, riddles and narrative. “This approach helps children learn, with the context of the story providing a ‘scaffold’ to support their understanding of scientific concepts,” Daniel said, “Ultimately, this helps them see why science is important, which is key.” Xientifica SOS can be read for pleasure or used as educational aid in schools or homeschooling to encourage learners to ask questions and conversations about science. Daniel Phelps is a Researcher at the University of Winchester. He is currently undertaking a three-year evaluation into the provision of support for young carers across Hampshire. Alongside his role at Winchester, he is also a children’s author and poet. He runs Planetpoetry.co.uk, a website hosting modern children’s poetry, and his poetry has been featured on the BBC’s CBeebies channel and is regularly published in school anthologies. Xientifica SOS is available for purchase from Amazon in both ebook and paperback form.

Jussi Parikka is a media theorist, writer, and professor in Media & Design at Winchester School of Art (University of Southampton). In his presentation "Microtemporalities in Network Ecology: In Bursts, Not Flows," Parikka evokes Ernst’s argument for “a different sort of temporality…one of meticulous microengineering of network temporalities, their bursting nature, a world of data queues and synchronization.” Duke’s Mark BN Hansen, one of the leading scholars in the field of media theory and philosophy, responds to Parikka’s keynote afterwards. Parikka has a PhD in Cultural History from the University of Turku, Finland and in addition, he is Adjunct Professor (“docent”) of Digital Culture Theory at the University of Turku, Finland. In addition, he is a Senior Fellow at the Winchester Centre for Global Futures in Art Design & Media. Mark BN Hansen is a professor with Program in Literature and with the Department of Art, Art History, and Visual Studies here at Duke. Hansen is also a media theorist and cultural critic whose work focuses on the experiential impact of new media technologies. His current research explores the experiential challenges posed by 21st century media, with particular emphasis on the expansion of sensibility through microcomputational sensing and the anticipatory, future-directed operation of data-driven media forms.

Reclamation Artist Kristin Posehn will discuss her new book Reclamation, about her public artwork of the same name, with Frieze contributing editor and art critic Jonathan Griffin. Reclamation is both a novella and an exhibition catalogue. The book tells the story of an ephemeral public artwork through the experiences of a fictional narrator.
