If you are in the right place, at the right time, you (may) experience something fantastic.
These projects deal with that which may seem extraordinary, unlikely, desirable (or not), confusing, or uncanny. I am interested in the fantastic experience, be it the conscious quest to achieve one’s personal (or indeed popular) fantasy, or the more sub-conscious seeding of a fantastic situation or construct through the actions of others. The fantastic has the power to engage the imagination, initiate dreams and trigger desires, excite, manipulate and confuse. the projects explore how one can, through the production of objects and services located in specific contexts, enable these fantasies.
The Quest is manifest through the devices - to experience the Invisible, Lightning Strike, and Disappearing (at sea), and the book Fantastic, documenting their developent and realisation.
