Just re-shelving in the stores and putting this gem safely back into its melinex. Dorothea Tanning being sassy in a letter to Lee Miller 🍅✨

Any recommendations for texts on feminism and collage art? 🤞🏻♥️

@ScotCitylink Thank you - it’s too late now we’ve had to get a train. I’d like to file a complaint though as this is the 4th time.

@tor_scott So there is a bus due there at 17:40 although it is delayed by 7 minutes so should be along there at 17:47 ^Ann-Marie

@ScotCitylink waited for the 900 to Glasgow at Roseburn Bridge, it was delayed but we hung on. Driver went straight past, loads of empty seats and no sign to say all tickets were sold. He just waved at us and drove on??

@ScotCitylink We’re getting the train now, we’re too late for a gig to wait. If the 900 no longer stops there they should remove the sign at the bus stop.

@ScotCitylink Not this time, but there’s been a number of times where I have booked a ticket and the driver has ignored us. This is a continuous problem - is the 900 not stopping at Roseburn anymore? Or are the drivers just deciding not to stop?

@tor_scott I am so sorry to hear that, did you have a ticket booked? ^Ann-Marie

It was the delayed 17:28

We are dismayed the Scottish govt has reimposed a £6.6m cut on Creative Scotland - weeks before the multi-year funding application deadline. This threatens our vulnerable, but vital, industry. We urge the gov to reverse the cut. Sign the petition @_CTFA campaignforthearts.org/petitions/scot…

Ectoplasm, automation, Surrealism, & séance Stumbled upon a whole new section in the @CentrePompidou permanent collection dedicated to Les femmes médiumniques exploring spirit communication.

So glad I managed to catch Surréalisme au féminin? @MuseeMontmartre before it closed!

@r_coombes I just did an essay about the “mind as water” trope in surrealism so let me know if you want me to pull anything else from the bibliography 💙💙💙

@r_coombes So many! A good one with lots of excerpts for inspiration is: shop.whitechapelgallery.org/products/docum…

Does anyone have any recommendations for texts on water (phenomenology, metaphor etc)? Bachelard's 'Water and Dreams' is my starting point... Thanks!
