Medieval Box: Part 3 – RealityScan home studio
This is the third post in a series about this decorated box, which I started back in March, and then continued by trialling some photogrammetry through the mobile app version of RealityScan. Here I’m attempting the same box but using the desktop application, DSLR camera and basic home studio setup with makeshift lighting. The purpose…

Medieval Box: Part 2 – Scanning by mobile app
Back in March I started out carving this decorated box on a weekend course, which I posted about in an earlier blog entry. After a bit of second-hand tool shopping and a few wet-weather weekends later, I’ve managed to complete the project. Both sides are carved with an interlocking ring pattern with variations corresponding to…

Medieval Box: Part 1 – Carving
I was lucky enough to receive a ticket to a woodcarving course as a Christmas present, and so my weekend was spent carving out a wooden box with a medieval chain pattern, guided by course leader Jon Anders Fløistad, and hosted by Ås Husflidslag. The model for the course is a small box found in…

The Matter of Illusion
I’m happy to be able to share a new essay I have had published as part of the first Metode volume on ‘Deep Surface’, titled “The Matter of Illusion: Seeing the Surface of Facsimiles. It is written from an auto-ethnographical perspective detailing my journey of understanding through a research residency at Factum Foundation last summer.…

Exhibition Review: ‘John Wolseley – Heartlands and Headwaters’ at The Ian Potter Centre: NGV Australia, Melbourne
Of all the cultural highlights of 2015 I could choose to relive, this chance stumbling across an exhibition in Melbourne is most worthy. I was on tour there after a busy summer, and not in the most refreshed frame of mind. John Wolseley’s Heartlands and headlands was a well placed tonic that was to change the course…
