Text of the page (random words):
here are they i m one they walk amongst us as do bill and ted fans and competitive whovians and as we move along the timeline and into predictions for the future we discover a jaded game of thrones viewer and even more jaded house sellers text reads we will at last have found a buyer for our house and will not be doomed to die in thanet although it is sunny there and is it just me or do you get the feeling jane wrote this herself in an act of wishful thinking and finally i don t want to upset anyone but someone has predicted dun dun dun surely not say it aint so but before we get too disheartened the final room of the exhibition really is something to be happy about diversity in time travel once upon a time at any other given point in history embracing the puns an exhibition such as this hosting iconic well known lauded texts on a given subject would usually be populated purely by works by dead white men and quite naturally such pieces do feature here with works from h g wells plato dickens einstein etc but it s by no means another case of pale male and stale culture hogging here as there s been a clear effort to include works by women and people of colour because now in 2017 it really is time that representation matters to cultural curators and fortunately here it does the final room of the exhibition asks who owns the future in this room you ll find works by black and women writers on display and a serious look at the role of time travelling storytelling within the feminist and racial equality movements this is accompanied by and a fabulous short video installation about how black creatives writers graphic artists musicians such as beyonce have incorporated time travel and futurism in their works in order to look to a brave new world my favourite line from the film the one which made me want to cheer and punch the air when it splashed across the screen read the masters of the present are not always the masters of the future i think i need to see that on a t shirt like yesterday which should be possible now we know there is such a thing as time travel there is it s true i read it on a post it but seriously those are the kind of conversations i m looking for in my cultural consumption these days i m interested in hearing about and seeing work from a diverse range of perspectives across gender and race and if curators directors producers editors etc can t find a way to include people other than straight white men in the topics they ve chosen to explore or the stories they ve chosen to tell well then they should be looking for a different story the time machines exhibition could easily have been another collection that limited itself to documenting the activities of important white men but it didn t it made the effort to tell a new tale and it s all the more interesting for doing so btw the mirrors in this final room are simply begging you to instagram them and i won t let them down on that front although it is a pity that in this particular one the phrase the clock is ticking stretches right across my groin area jeez alright alright keep your opinions to yourself please further details if our virtual tardis spin of a tour around the time machines exhibition has sparked your imagination then here s where you can find out more visit palace green library on twitter palacegreenlib search the hashtag pgltimetraveller to read other people s perspectives or visit the palace green library website for all the official details note if the 7 50 the entry fee feels a little steep then you might like to know that the cost does include 2 return visits before the end of the exhibition i would advise that to make the most of your time there download the app we didn t use the interactive phone sit and linger with some time travel books write a sticky note and feel free to tag me in it if you share a photo of it on social media watch the film and take instagram worthy shots in the mirrors so tell me time hopping friends what do you think now you ve had a general overview of the experience do you fancy visiting the exhibition in real life have you already been or have you just enjoyed me dragging you around the exhibition from the comfort of your sofa where who would you want to visit from the past what do you predict for the future have you recently visited an exhibition which made an effort to be inclusive without being tokenistic and do time travel storylines baffle you too i think the last one i tried to get my head around was the ethan hawke movie predestination i just can t get that looping of time thing like the events which happen that change the future or is it the past and which bits have to have happened in which order to make the next things happen nope i give up i m putting on a romcom instead as always we can continue this conversation via any of my online homes instagram twitter facebook website and i ll see you here or there soon or later on or maybe even in the past i don t know i might need to read up on those time travel paradoxes again julie posted by julie kirk at 12 17 4 comments labels palace green library time machines exhibition pgltimetraveller time travel durham email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest monday 19 june 2017 the summertime jane austen book club welcome to the sanditon along hello hello how do you fancy sitting back people watching and maybe falling in love jane austen style this summer if that sounds like how you d like to spend july then come and join in with an impromptu informal summer book club hosted by me hello and ruth from everyday life of a suburban sahm what we re reading sanditon an unfinished novel by jane austen completed by other authors when jane austen died 200 years ago next month only 4 of the books we know and love her for sense sensibility pride prejudice mansfield park and my personal favourite emma had been published two further works northanger abbey and persuasion were published posthumously and then there was sandition austen had only written 12 chapters of sanditon when she died on july 18th 1817 and since then it s been released into the world after being completed by several different authors why we re reading it last week ruth posted on instagram where she s thestreetsofw5 about how she rescued an abandoned copy of sanditon from the jaws of death at a recycling centre ok i may have exaggerated but she did rescue it from a recycling centre where it was surely only a few collections and deliveries away from being pulped and her post leapt out at me because i have a copy of the exact same edition which i rescued from a charity shop and like ruth i had never read it so i suggested we join forces for a communal read along or more precisely a sanditon along when we re reading it we re opening the covers on sanditon on july 1st 2017 and taking our reading at a leisurely pace throughout the month how you can join us grab yourself a copy of sanditon by jane austen by any which way you fancy before july 1st actually don t worry if you don t get it by that date that s just when we re starting to read it and chat about it in occasional blog instagram posts feel free to join in whenever you can but if you d like the communal element try to get into it before the end of july check your local library catalogue because good books are good but free books are even better i ve had a quick look on amazon uk and there are actually a few copies available of the same edition we re using dip into ebay charity thrift shops and apparently recycling centres are a good sourse of abandoned novels and of course there are ebook versions available out there too basically however you can get sanditon under your nose is fine with us it s almost guaranteed that we will end up reading different versions as it seems several other authors have completed what jane austen started but that s no problem it ll probably lead us to interesting conversations about the various ways the story is taken by its different writers throughout the month share your sanditon reading experiences with us on social media blogs eg share photos of your copy or your where you re reading it let us know how if you re enjoying it use the hashtag sanditonalong if you d like us to easily find your post and to find posts by others feel free to tag me on instagram withjuliekirk and or ruth thestreetsofw5 if you d like to make sure we see your posts you can also join in by tweeting me notesonpaper or leaving a blog comment on this post or any future blog posts i create during the sanditonalong or posting on your own blog and letting me know or swinging by my with julie kirk facebook page and ruth has shared her own version of events on her blog here so how about it are you in it s such a wonderfully serendipitous chain of events that s led us including you here now firstly someone chose to leave that book in the recycling centre then ruth just happened to notice it decide to take it home and post about it on instagram where i just happened to see it and recognise it as exactly the same edition as the one lounging on my shelf and now just days later here we are planning to read jane austen s final unfinished novel during the 200th anniversary of her death and beyond and encouraging others you to join us in doing the same i ve been meaning all year to find an appropriate meaningful way to mark her anniversary not merely because it was an important one of 200 years but also because of her age when she died she was 41 and 7 months on her anniversary i ll be 41 and 6 months and i ve felt somehow obliged to consciously mark the occasion and now almost accidentally i know what i ll be doing i ll be reading her final book alongside a network of readers who like me might well be encountering it for the first time the whole occasion of our pop up sanditon along book club is almost perfectly austenian in itself what with its themes of coincidences the almost didn t happen ness the love of books and reading the sharing of stories between female friends it fits happily within the austen universe and ruth and i hope you ll get chance to join us there julie so tell me are you going to go find dust off a copy and get ready to start reading with us on july 1st 2017 posted by julie kirk at 17 47 13 comments labels jane

lose hey you so i ve turned the tombola that is my collection of scribbled in notebooks and plucked out this snippet from nearly a decade ago funnily enough i paraphrased this exact piece to someone in an email just last week i think the universe is dropping me a hint notes from 24 th october 2008 never admit that you are getting over something which the universe had a hand in creating in the first place it doesn t like it it resents that its whirling dealings could be so easily overwritten and conspires to prove to you just who is in charge of this whole game the wheel turns and you lose

months when the card ran out we decided to subscribe for the full year full price as we d become used to having a good excuse to get out and have a wander around a gallery or museum now each time we visit york we pay the gallery a visit no matter what s on as we get in free with the art pass we don t need to check or worry if an exhibition is not our thing we can just let serendipity lead us and you know how much i like a bit of serendipity which is why we didn t know anything about the aesthetica art prize exhibition currently running on the first floor of york art gallery before we found ourselves standing in it and for anyone else as oblivious to it here s the official description from the gallery website a platform for innovation and originality the aesthetica art prize exhibition invites audiences to engage with captivating projects from some of today s leading artists both established and emerging from individual narratives to global concerns the artworks comment on contemporary culture and explore themes such as globalisation perceptions of space and alienation in the digital age and it really was original and captivating and filled with photo opportunities which perfectly pandered to my instagram fixation photo here are a few of my favourite pieces most photo worthy was this rainbow beauty this delicate swaying multi coloured piece is i am here by emmanuelle moureaux the more sturdy bearded piece in shorts is james in case there was any confusion there what you can t quite see from that distance is that this ombre monolith is made up from 18 000 individual cut outs of a female figure here s some more info on it there was even a sign on the wall that encourages you to spot in amongst those 18 000 figures a single cat and two girls one with a balloon one an umbrella somewhere amid the crowd so we gave it a go we tried james thought it would be fairly easy it was not fairly easy we did not spot any we gave up could you fare any better despite that it was a fascinating installation that threw up questions of identity and individuality and our place in a crowd not to mention h...
