I'll try and check out some more Contact exhibits this weekend. There are 3 in the market. I saw part of the one at Xpace before running into someone I hadn't seen in awhile. Cut to coffee and catching up. That's been the best one so far... aboriginals, rights of passage, pretty candid material. There's some local stuff on King east, Toronto Squared I think is what the show is called. We'll see how it is.

I can't believe I haven't been to a single Contact show. I suck. If anyone wants a gallery accomplice, let me know.

Yeehaw, just picked up a Gardin frame with a curved top tube from Jet Sanchez. It is way cool. I thought it would be bigger and I was thinking about building it up for my brother, but I might just keep the sucker.

Just discovered this: https://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/collective/
Some good stuff on there... watching this right now: https://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/collective/A1172846
Funny to be tuning in a BBC stream for a Canadian artist.
