Here's the kids' work from today's illuminated mushroom-making workshop; this was a class of year 6 pupils

In contrast, there are (/were) 7 ZipCar vans parked on the street at various locations within a 5 minute walk of me. At least one of these is always available. I can book it on my phone in less than 5 minutes for a couple of hours, then just drop it back off and walk away

There are a bunch of jobs that just won't be logistically feasible now. The key thing was not the price, but the convenience. The nearest reliable van hire place to me is a 20 minute cycle ride away and then at least a half hour drive to get it back to the studio. It's only open during certain hours. It takes half an hour to do the paperwork and collect a vehicle and then I have to stop at a fuel station nearby when I return it or get stung a fortune for any shortfall. This shit all adds up…

To wit: central/north London car club locations with and without ZipCar included…

The idea is to talk about what we do as light/installation artists and then get the young people to have a go at making their own work. Hopefully we can cluster all of them together at the end and make one big installation
