Another Lost Not Found Abscission Artwork reported
The New Year has started in a very interesting manner as a piece of Artwork has been reported as being found '..outside the courtyard shop, at the Mains of Taymouth, Kenmore,Scotland, in a flower pot.'
At first I believed the work to be from the Edinburgh Art Festival project but the Finder mentioned it as one of seven so it may be from another project.
The piece has obviously been moved without the initial find (s?) being reported, more details when I know them......

Chapmans Monkey:
- New Artwork now in development. Expect new 3D, online and 2D works based on research I have been carrying out..
- Busy times. I have a sense that at least one more piece will be reported as found from Edinburgh.
Most locations can be found on the Googlemap.....please click link above.....

Four Finds in Edinburgh
A good day today with the penultimate sitings, two reports from today and two from last week.
FOUND at The West End Craft Fair and relocated.
(No photo)
FOUND at The International Book Festival.
This find was reported in person at Edinburgh Printmakers in a coincidental conversation during a questionaire on the same day as it was sited.
Sited on 'Time' by Eva Hoffman.
FOUND By Magpie & Stump on Royal Mile.
Synchronicity dictated that a Gegenstand (Magpie Mummy) Artwork, was sited by this 'His Majesty the Bird', the antique mascot of the Magpie & Stump Comedy Society of Trinity College Cambridge.
FOUND at Mr Woods Fossils on Cowgate.
'The Universe Is Poisonous' by Carl Gent.

PHOTO CLUES:
These photos may give you a clue as to the whereabouts of some Artwork, they are, of course taken in a great hurry with a pocket camera! They were all placed yesterday, one in a thunderstorm......
Yesterdays notes:
Busy placing Artwork in the rain....
A visit today to the modern Art Gallery and Boyle Family & Gilbert &
George proved to be the highlights of the show.
Narrowly escaped being collared as I cunningly placed an Artwork after
cockily assembling & signing 3 in the same room as a camera.
Then a walk along the water of Leith & Dean Village, drizzle & patchy
rain then a clap of thunder as I stood under a tree just about to
write about the mummified magpie on my iPod. Good idea ....
Fantastic charged & ionized atmosphere by the river as I strolled on
towards Stockbridge...

Nine artworks now sited including Millie Burton photo print and two of Sarah Tullochs Red Icons.
Photos of some sited pieces will be posted here later.... can you spot where they are?
Had a rather fabulous day at the Modern Art Gallery then getting caught in a thunderstorm by the water in Dean Village near the Well.
Met some more interesting people in interesting places, you may know who you are & I may be back!
The Mummified Magpie photo prints were named yesterday:
'A wonderful piece of synchronicity this morning, I'd just had some photos for the project printed and wasn't sure what the title should be without being too obvious so decided, without looking, to put my hand out to the bookshelf in our flat. Without thinking, quick as a flash, 'First book, 3rd sentence, 10th word'. The result: Ludwig Wittgenstein 'Philosophical Investigations' in German/English, the word, 'Gegenstand' that translates as Object, Thing.'

First Figment find reported! Found by Alex in the Nolan Gallery, packaging had been attached to the wall in a 'closet' and crocodile sculpture had a handwritten sign 'please do not(underlined) touch the artwork.'
