As part of the Apocalypse Museum I co-curated with @GavinGrindon for @GreenpeaceUK at Glastonbury this year, I made this installation of a Terminator robot painting an AI-generated image of an evaporated lake in collaboration with the incredible Tim Hunkin of @NovAutomation

The sun’s out and so are your toes... Saturday is my favourite: lots of visitors, lots of socks removed. I’m open - ahem, I mean, we're open – from 11 to 6 today. So do come by. Pop a foot in and see what happens. It’s good for the sole. I won’t judge (much)... #TheChiropodist

Stepping through Tim Hunkin's automatic door at @ScienceMuseum's 'The Secret Life of the Home' gallery was like a playful leap through time. Don't miss this journey before it closes on June 2nd! @sciencemuseum @NovAutomation

The much-loved (but perhaps time-worn) “The Secret Life Of The Home” @sciencemuseum gallery is to close… so if you’ve never been to the basement or want a last👀: go before 2 June! Free tickets & blogpost on it: blog.sciencemuseum.org.uk/sa… I thought I’d be sadder to see it go but…

Closing? No way! One of @TimHunkin's amazing installations. As a child, this sparked my interest in the ingenuity present in so many everyday objects. His demonstration of the standing waves in a microwave oven is a particular favourite. @NovAutomation
