What I did in July 2017

[squirmelia]

I stood in a disused warehouse, which once stored rum and tobacco, amongst a crowd of mannequins, watching videos flash by.

In a Masonic temple, I wore headphones and watched a video installation about Crowley and Thelema and sex magic.

I went to the anime architecture exhibition at the House of Illustration with doseybat and verazea.

I ate charcoal coconut ice-cream, which was grey in a black cone, and that felt apocalyptic somehow.

I went to Hipchips with deathboy and ate fancy crisps, with strawberry, cream & Pimms dip, and gooseberry, elderflower & Gordon's gin dip, and smokey cheese fondue dip, and I drank a bottle of pear and rosemary drink.

I went to the New Music Biennial at the Southbank Centre and there were songs from Hull, I remember that.

I went on a tube walk from Royal Albert to Beckton Park and also visited the Newham City Farm and listened to turkeys gobble.

I went to the monthly Pub Standards and had drinks and conversations with web folk.

I played on the swing at St Pancras.

I went to see Daniel Kitson at the Roundhouse with deathboy.

I went through a fridge to get to the bar at the Mayor of Scaredy Cat Town. I also saw some of the sculptures in the city and I got confused and thought a man lying on the grass was a sculpture, when actually it was a human being. It took me a while to stop laughing after that.

I made jewellery out of concrete at a class at Craft Central.

I went to pir's party and it was great to talk to people there.

I went to see the Dreamers Awake – women and surrealism exhibition at the White Cube.

I ate avocado nitro ice-cream with fried corn from Chin Chin Dessert Club.

I saw Music for Solaris at the Barbican.

I gatecrashed deathboy's work do and played Dance Dance Revolution at Namco.

I visited the V&A with grandedgemaster one evening, for Hack. Make. Create, and an algorave was happening there.


Ingress:

I helped organise the Enlightened Summer BBQ. It went ahead despite the rain, and I danced to Sisters of Mercy to keep warm. I made Enlightened bunting and we draped it around and ate much halloumi. Then we played board games in a pub.

I got the Onyx trekker badge, which meant I have walked 2500km while playing Ingress!

Recognising your ex purely from the events someone has been to with them in an LJ post: very weird.

Ah, sorry. :(

I wasn't having a go! Just weird. He seems to be making his way through my friends...we must all have the same personality according to OKC or something!
