I was at Tate Modern last night, working on a corporate job with a little bit of a twist!

The job was for Nissan and was essentially a pre motor show do for various industry related bods. The usual corporate really, apart from the headline act was Beardyman. Excellent!

We got to see the new Nissan GTR in the flesh, which was good. Unfortunately they couldn’t bring it into the main turbine hall as the person driving the car turned the engine on and the venue people realised it had petrol in it. Apparently that’s a fire risk.

I managed to capture some of beardymans performance for those wishing to see. He was very very good. I last saw him when he opened Groove Armada at Brixton Academy last year.

For those that don’t know, Beardyman is the UK beatboxing champion.


“Welcome to Tate World of Adventures!”
I can just imagine that being the recorded phrase greeting you as you enter Tate Modern in a year or twos time.

For the past two days I’ve been at Tate Modern installing lighting for the new Carsten Höller installation, which is basically a giant set of slides.

Slides at Tate Modern

I’m not quite sure how you can classify it as art, but they’re definitely pretty funky!
I’ll be going to the opening night on Monday as we all got invited along. Hopefully I’ll get to have a go this time. They seemed to have grills locked over the slide entrances whilst we were working. I wonder why!

lotsa emails this way!
