One & OtherI wanted to share a piece of good news: I got a mention on the blog of Antony Gormley's Fourth Plinth Art Project, called One & Other, in Trafalgar Square! Take a look here.

The One & Other team were asking for suggestions on what name to give the volunteers for this project. I offered the name 'Plinthian'; they liked it and have mentioned it on their blog! Its made my weekend :)

This summer, sculptor Antony Gormley is inviting the public to help create an astonishing living monument. He is asking the people of the UK to occupy the empty Fourth Plinth in Trafalgar Square in London, a space normally reserved for statues of Kings and Generals. They will become an image of themselves, and a representation of the whole of humanity.

Every hour, 24 hours a day, for 100 days without a break, a different person will make the Plinth their own. If you're selected, you can use your time on the plinth as you like. One & Other is open to anyone and everyone from any corner of the UK.
