I received an email from Surface Magazine. They have now launched out of Beijing, China and are interested in writing about tactile mind. Today I am attempting to get the proper image requirements to them; which requires a re-shoot of my book. I hope the daylight today is good to me – photographing white plastic sucks.

It was very kind to receive a pdf copy of this article from UK Forum for my records, but WOW! Talk about being misquoted. Maybe this makes a more interesting story than the interview I did with them. ( I really can’t imagine using this book as an aid in sex ed for kids…..)

This is a copy of the article written about tactile mind in GQ China. No, I do not know what it says, but I like how it was put together, and dig the voice bubble!
Thank you to Rocco Liu of Conde Nast China for getting this to me.

So I sit here in front of my computer and Blackberry and photographs, trying to retrace my steps for my next project. I always forget something when creating a tactile image ; right now, it seems to be the clay-. A little distracted from the feeds on Facebook from friends who have been on the streets during the G20 Summit in Toronto this weekend. It’s been a total police state.
P.S. If you’re wondering; I am Tactile Mind Studio Limited.

This trinket of hate mail is taken from an online comment left on the the website (adult) on April 18, 2010:
Lisa,You perverted woman, at least leave the blind community alone,If you are so keen to shed your clothes and morals,look else where.The blind community doesn’t need corrupt and perverted ideas like yours.The accursed porn industry has spoiled many a generation and family,now you want the same to be repeated in the blind community. The porn industry mafia is a 17 billion $ business in US,is that enough for you that you want to tap & explore more possibilities since there are sites which offer different types of content, you can click here to visit gayporn.wiki to find good content for the gay community.How BLIND can you get,You perverted woman(we are ashamed to call you a woman).Just imagine that all the vice,evil & immorality that would percolate in the blind community by your diservice,You alone will be held responsible by God Allmighty. Have a heart please abandon this wretched idea of yours. Instead make something for our blind brothers that would help them see the truth in the form of natural beauty of the creator.Come out of your pitiable darkness,Come towards light.COME TOWARDS ISLAM.OPEN YOUR EYES. DO NOT WANDER BLINDLY IN YOUR OWN IGNORANCE.
I’m thinking maybe somebody pissed in his cornflakes.
