| Bucks futures favourites |

I thought my absolout favourite of Becks futures or "Bucks" as Olivia Plender calls it in her comic The Masterpiece part 5 was going to be Olivia and her comic.
And I do like it, though I suspect that Bristol has been ripped off and the originals by Oliva are at ICA and CCA not A The Bond Building in Bristol.
Instead we get a news print version of the comic book, which is OK and I expect cheap to distribute, and maybe that is what Olivia's comic look like normally, but I was expecting something more well comic book like.
The comic wins the award for noting that the Art world in the Uk today
is like a competitive sport. (Good job I come from a highly competitive sibling
gene pool huh?)
So the piece of art that blew my mind last night at The Becks Futures oppening was Matt Stokes Long After Tonight.
A church in Dundee, not sure what kind of church, but it's gothic and beguiling and as the film begins we get stills of it and it's surroundings. It's early in the morning, prehaps 4 oclock. You would expect this scene to be silent huh.
But inside the church there is a kind of Northern Soul all nighter soire.
My heavenis in that church. Reminds me of secret Lock in dancing parties we've had and you know where, except not with twee Bristol Indie kids, but with spohisticated scottish Soulsters.
Beautifully shot dancers with ace norhern soul outfits and attitude.
What is caught is that special group activity that is dancing, when everyone is
collectively taken by the music but each individual enraptured in their own unique dance.
I will be going back in the day to watch and dance.
