So spent the day making and discussing breakfast with Barney. It was all very philosophical we discussed the nature of reality a lot but this was underpinned by lots of practical stuff about making. I recorded our conversations which sound vaguely ironic as if we couldn't take ourselves seriously enough but this somehow allowed us to be very serious. I have 4 hours of sound which I'm thinking of getting transcribed. I suggested that we were the only people at that point in time trying to cast a Hyper real English breakfast at which point Barney put a plate on his head and said he could guarantee that we were the only people casting an English breakfast with one person with a plate on his head. He then told me a story about his dad putting a realistic plastic chicken on his head and telling him that at that moment he was the only person in the world with a synthetic chicken on his head (I think his dad should of stood on one leg just to be on the safe side) so it was deep man and it was good to make breakfast and discuss the archetypal sausage and cast an egg and start to grow a thing and see it change and realise that I need to cast the plate and worry about the third breakfast -

does that mean im the only woman thinking about you two , one with a plate on his head the other watching, while i make apple crumble. It feels like that funny i went to the shops game now so im going to stop.
But hey i like the photo of the two breakfast though, which got me thinking about the courbusier drawing section in the evocative objects book and digital representation of objects.
I wonder if there is need for something more though than a photo or something of a third breakfast althougth they would be all good representations, i wonder if the 3rd thing was something like a painting of the breakfast on the plate trompe l'oie style or the left overs of an eaten brakfast other wise it seems a bit too close to the kosuth piece . Dont know, it would be nice though if it involved a hand made skill about it. Get your dad to make one out of wood, wittle one
They all play with the idea of tricking is there something in that?
