Time to catch up - mostly as I'm laid up today.  This is partly down to the heat, partly down to a cold, probably not helped by a couple of nights under canvas at Leiston Abbey with DigVentures an a couple of days of rail travel either side.  Very cold nights (shiveringly so) and boiling hot days.  Oh well.

DigVentures was a load of fun.  With funding all over the sector squeezed these days then crowfunding is definitely a way forward.

Currently about to start work at the Andrew Logan Museum of Sculpture at Berriew near Welshpool - working on finishing cataloguing their collection on MODES and imaging their collections.  This will also mean looking at 123D with Richard Smith - sculpture needs 3D imaging to be properly imaged, being a 3D medium.  Interesting times - especially as this can lead to 3D printing.  The possibility of creating surrogates easily for display or handling collections opens up new possibilities.

Other work at the moment is more work for the LMS-Patriot Project.  The new display will be at the People's History Museum in Manchester.  Looking forward to this one!
