Last updated 11:39 31/10/2010 Rose Ives' Bebo page said she was happiest ''up a big rock face, with my boy, sleeping in the mountains''. Bitterness could not be avoided at the funeral of shot teacher Rose Ives. If the overhead projector showing the funeral programme was a concession to her organised and teacherly ways and the green blanket draped over her casket was a nod to her environmental leanings, then the raw grief in the room was a sign that a young woman in the prime of her life was gone too soon.

The emergence of the internet means the return of the universal spectator.” (Groys, 2013) An abbreviation of ‘anonymous’, and an old English word meaning ‘soon, presently’ Anon is a weeklong inhabitation of the Sumner Art Window by Choreographer Joshua Rutter.

During the week he will be setting up situations in the gallery based around the increasing presence of Computer Vision (CV) in our day-to-day activities, and how it might affect our behaviours and experiences. As one aspect of the evermorevisible surveillance we are subject to from commercial and governmental interests, CV is a timely object for contemplation. Rutter will be offering training facilities for tactical face recognition avoidance set amidst more freeform operations with camouflage, stealth, and drones. 6c57ba397a896ce148d3a6237c5dfabd.jpg (JPEG Image, 800 × 533 pixels) Ncert : Upbeat : 19 Sep 2013 : Sara Brodie - Faultlines. 50bb01e0ac6731598cc8459a8e3cd669.jpg (JPEG Image, 800 × 533 pixels)
