The UK Election Day Channel

Can't really do full-on backchannel comments on Twitter, because too many people follow me.  I will have my Twitter switched on all night, but, for those of you who want to follow the horror online, there's a dedicated UK Election Day thread at my message board.

WIRED UK: Column 14

In which I throw together some notes on my visit to the RED shooting set while timezone-fucked in LA:

I flew out to the set the other week. There were no full-body scanners at Heathrow. I received a pleasant massage from a security guard, which I guess was supposed to be a pat-down but instead did wonders for the muscles in my calves. I would have tipped him if my wallet hadn't still been in the X-ray machine…

Diana McCarthy

I last heard from London-based artist Diana McCarthy on April 28. She missed a meeting on April 29. So far as I know, she hasn't responded to anyone's emails since. She hasn't updated or posted on any of her web accounts since. If anyone can confirm for me that she's not dead, that'd be great. Thanks.

Yeah, That About Sums It Up
