Transvision
February 25, 2006

We went to Transvision at the V&A last night - What a lot of people!!!! I certainly didn't expect that many. A club night in a museum? well, kind of...

Unfortunately the DJ and bar were at the front, thus causing a bit of a bottleneck to the visuals - which, and I don't know if it was intentional or not, were mapped in a somewhat, erm... arty fashion!

So a lot of folk were actually looking at the general museum pieces instead. But that can't be a bad thing. A wonderfully eclectic mix of tunes, befitting the location I think and although I didn't see everything, before my stomach decided I should mosey dinnerwards, some beautiful pieces.

Left is an Untitled light sculpture by UVA that had some fantastic audio accompanying it - It sort of turned white and made Sci-fi noises as you got near it, like some portal to a different dimension. I want one at home! The other outstanding piece for me was Jason Bruges Visual Echoes.

Got handed a dreadful flyer at Victoria, on the way home, for a Gay/Lesbian club night that appears to be in a Chinese restaurant. it was photocopied and claims the night will have, and I quote, a "Wide range of music, atttentive DJs, nice dance floor, lighted dance pole and fine dinning upstairs" Dress code casual or drag!!! We were handed that shortly before passing a beggar chatting on his mobile! Strange. Not as odd as the snippet of conversation we overheard at Herne Hill, where a girl said to her two friends, "She did a handstand and gave him a blow job".

Happy Birthday Trev!
