Introduction

Hello and welcome to the blog / journal for my latest art project, to be exhibited upon completion in Carlisle in June. Provisionally entitled '101 Experiments', it is based on Roger-Pol Droit's 2001 book 101 Expériences de philosophie quotidienne. The book describes a number of experiments designed to question our perception of the world and everything in it. It is my intention to conduct every single experiment, to be visually documented online, thereby allowing the audience to follow this unique philosophical journey. Part experiment and part lecture, each film will explore some of the ideas behind the original source material.

I also intend to use a variety of current media to chart the progress of the work. I have set up a Twitter account, located at https://twitter.com/richardwainman which will be updated on the fly during the course of the experiments; this blog will continue in parallel to the Twitter page.

The first films should hopefully appear within a week or so, initially available here. My aim is to create a dedicated website where everything can be accessed in one place, but that will come later.
