As a prototype for me being handed from person to person across a wide geographical area, I sent some moleskine notebooks out on a journey in the UK. One came back today – it was supposed to go to Edinburgh before it was posted back to me. Originally posted on Please Look After This Englishman
I just made this highly inspirational first video diary to mark 28 days until I’m going to be travelling to the US – I think it has the exciting motivational tone necessary to spur you all on to… um… do something. Well actually no, it’s not because I’ve got a cold and that’s making me…
[vimeo http://www.vimeo.com/19397133 w=500&h=283] JD Andrews was over in London in the Autumn last year and filmed this interview about Tuttle at the Centre for Creative Collaboration. JD’s just announced that his channel @GoingSocialTV has been picked up by the R&R network – I’m hoping to catch up with JD at some point during March –…

My main job at the moment is getting sponsorship to help support me on the trip. This takes the form of cash, to make sure I’m not penniless when I enter the USA and can pay my bills while I’m away and products and services that will help me create an interesting experience for people…
This is a difficult life lesson to learn. It’s so tempting to keep looking forward and plan and think a few moves deeper, trying to work out what the strategy should be and what other people should do, will do, might do in response to what you’re doing. And yet in some (many?) (all?) circumstances…
I remember very little about this place except that I worked for some professional firm that was providing expert witness testimony to the inquiry into the fire at King's Cross Station (so that would make it the Spring of 1988) and I was there as a photocopier operator. I hardly saw anyone all day, I…
An important aspect of projects like this is that whatever happens, whether it turns out according to plan or not, it’s all part of the story. Things don’t “go wrong” they just go differently to how we expected. So today I had a chat with Nick and he told me that he’s now got theatre…
