WIRED
In various conversations this piece has become known as Wired Thomas. It was never concieved as a portrait of a living person, and never really intended as a deliberate artwork, but that doesn't preclude it from being a slaeable, genuine art commodity. From it's completion I have been very satisfied with it's simplicity, and it's a shame to see it go. It has inspired a new series however, more of the simple visual floating expressions that depict little moments of everyday and not so everyday. I think I will call the series Nick Hersey's Brown Jumpers, though none of them have v-necks in.

A series of possible people. Reminds me of the series by Brian Eno on possible musics. Perhaps there is a realm of possible people just as there may be possible musics. A realm of undiscovered potentialities; perhaps only sometimes becoming real. Perhaps discovered like the scientists in Gulliver's Travels who hope to discover truth by trial and error. Stumbling upon a person who might exist. Perhaps this is what the corporate headhunter does; designing a person they want to exist and then to go out to try to find them.
