I'll end up needing a bigger lathe for pieces like this. I barely have the torque on my Sherline mini lathe for stuff even slightly smaller than this.

I was supposed to write an essay based on the idea of Francis Alys' Guards (2004), but somehow didn't write an essay at all and got very carried away. It went from a critical look at the place of walking in modern art to attempting to dissolve all logical meaning entirely. Initially a snide piss-take, I wrote a ludicrous non-story about the City of London and its inhabitants. After that the form of the essay went out of the window too. A fuller explanation and the complete PDFs can be found goo.gl/WdhlCg.
Printing the original document under the title "London Eats", I wanted it to be double-sided, but it came out on the same side of paper, to expectedly interesting results.
This is about as perfect a cross section as I found. All these limbs appear to be 3 years old, with 3 very large, obvious rings.

The "Cut up" of writing was pioneered by Dadaists and later used by Beat Generation poets. I didn't manipulate individual lines or letters but instead used chunks of text and sewed them back together to turn the written text into something more visual and dissolve meaning even further.

A sans-serif typeface that has had 12 rounds in the ring and come out not looking too pretty! Rockit is a headline face with grunge textures, perfect for the rock band flyer, end of school gig, or anything else you feel needs a raw and filthy feel. With 3 styles of filthy-ness, see which works for you.

On top of my Jet 12"x20" lathe here are all the little turning blanks I got out of the leftover of the log I tried to resaw months ago. I was able to clean away all the bark and split pieces (below lathe), and get something useful out of the log at last.

Augustine. A pile of mouldy potatoes? Let's make a font!
From the second batch - another chunk of European olive - I was able to harvest quite a number of beautiful little turning blanks.
