Decent Proposal

Thanks to Sebastian Coe and friends there is no more money for arts funding.

Gone are the days of actually being asked to show at a gallery. Now you have to compete ruthlessly with your former friends and tutors from art school by making proposals and being interviewed about them.

Join us at Eastside Projects, Birmingham, and bring your proposals. You will be given the opportunity to put forward your ideas to a board of top Arts professionals who will offer feedback and maybe a tax free R&D budget, who knows...


'Decent Proposal' will be podcast as part of the Compliment Sandwich outreach initiative.

In this episode we give 'shout-outs' to our listeners, have a go at some 'role-reversal' and discuss the kind of 'porn' a mac user would like.


get complimented on your sandwich here or if you are the kind of dirty mac user who uses pinch technology to hide your hot corners then go to iTunes and download the shiny filth.

thanks to steve shure and tom behringer for providing the excellent microphone technology employed in our 'What Hi-Fi?'approved introduction.
thanks also to all the people working slavishly behind the scenes to ensure that we bring you only the best in stumbling inarticulacy.

Smarties Quiz - A Game For Tubes

Phil and Ben do a quiz to make them happy . Smarties are the prize money. Then they talk openly about their preconceptions of what the other one would do in the event of a zombie apocalypse.

If anyone is out there and reads this we will be at the foot of the Rotunda from Midday to Dusk each day, over. You are not alone over. We have supplies and rations, over.

we speak into your ears via the interthingy here

hosted at the internet archive, but I don't think they've listened to it

Sample in quiz section 8156__kollege__systemstart from www.freesound.org thanks! Also thanks to Wagner.

Ben is Late
