Play this game, it’s wonderful: Small Worlds
It’s by David Shute and recently won the Casual Game Design Competition #6.
Yesterday we went on a little tour of Tate Modern’s old oil tanks. These are the three tanks that were once used to store oil when it was a power station. They are huge. All the metal from the tanks has been removed but the huge concrete structure that housed them remains.
During Tate Modern’s second phase of development (see here) they are going to be turned into exhibition spaces - and very good spaces they are too. There are currently a series of John Baldessari films being shown in them but I wasn’t allowed to photograph them.
Afterwards we went to look at the Miroslaw Balka piece ‘How It Is’ in the turbine hall - It’s huge and monstrous and very good - like walking into the gates of hell, or some kind of inter-dimensional portal.

Some of them make me a little jealous.
Check out Littlewhitehead. I recently exhibited with them in Conjunction 08. They’ve got themselves some great publicity for their piece in the Daily Mail. Many of the details are wrong and it’s been completely sensationalised - the work is a lot subtler and deadpan than it reads, but then that’s the Mail for you.
