June - July 1997 Money for Nothing and your Shits for Free 

A simulating and entering programme in which artists' tackle is stapled to a banner which says Diaspora on it, or Migration,  combining personal account details with notions of fiscal 'otherness' with an open and uninformative reproach to banking. David Niven and Sons address the theme of 'home banking' and 'places' from the standpoint of their respective credit brokers. 

Seaview  is an impressionistic documentary, focusing on the Isle of Mark's major blood groups. Blood donors and bank customers feature  strongly in Giro, a meditative exploration of physical journeys to Largs DSS as seen from the perspective of a Sufi Gold Card  holder, blood group A. Big White Gallery, £12, 000 & a gold mine/50p Gag 

What happens when the pursuit of freedom begins to  inhibit participation? What happens when the pursuit of democracy disenfranchises the players? 

How stable is a republic, held  together only the jingoism and rhetoric of former days. Answers on a postcard to the LCICCPNPAEANCC.# We regret that no  correspondence can be entered into. 

Hash Plant 

A touring exhibition from the Auditorium for Critical Attitudes to Self-identification with the Definition 'Cultural Producer' as a Sufficient Response to Cultural Issues, Stirling, Hash Plant is an intimate and powerful, good and nice multi-coloured, multi-media environment which documents a surgical operation on a bank manager's favourite terry towel bathrobe, while connecting themes of cotton fibre weaving and wearing with race and hysteria. The work is dedicated to Landmark Furnishings Ltd., open 7 days a week, just off the M8 near Stirling. 

Landmark Furnishings 

weave a romantic, melancholy meditation around pleasure, loss and the redemptive power of the Hash Plant, truly a landmark in the land in which the places and spaces of sexuality are constructed, from the 'cottage' to the cyberspace of the future etc. 

The City is No Longer Safe 

Gingy Kuzminska Kantor employs digital imaging ZX Spectrum technology to warn of the perils of allowing Val D'Oro's, Home of the Glasgow Fish Tea, to assert its influence over the dynamics of urban politico-sexual deviancy in Largs. Various camcorder activists will 'eat chips' like cultural constructs, providing a taster for the first ever deep fried subversive voice for those women exploited by installation artists for their own ends.
