What with the 'light sabre' Word picture and the fantastic new shot released today, methinks Neil has been at the Hayward Gallery recently.

Some good stuff there. Very stylish. I would love the album cover to have this kind of influence. But it also has a hint of Kylie 'Impossible Princess'. Only a hint mind.

A series of stunning Flavin installations is permanently visible in Italy at Villa Panza di Biumo, Varese, near Milan, for anyone interested. Flavin died in 1996 at 63. His work has a rather anti-romantic quality, in spite of the atmospheres created. More philosophy, but no miserablism either when he says "the light is the light is the light". Quite a point in common with PSB's approach, I think.
Now if they worked with people like Robert Wilson...
