    No Man's Land

    On our walk today Penny and I had a look at artist Fergal MacCarthy on his little "tropical" island floating in the Liffey. No Man's Land is an installation as part of the Fringe Festival and he will be living on the island for the next week, dressed in his "developers" suit and surrounded by the gleaming glass and steel products of the Celtic Tiger - and of course only yards downstream from the hulking decaying shell of the doomed Anglo Irish headquarters. 

    MacCarthy is the same guy who floated the giant Monopoly houses in the river during last year's Fringe.

    The weather was a little blustery and changeable today, but nice enough, however with this storm heading our way tonight, rather him than me.

    You can follow his tweets from his island HERE, and follow the whole project on his blog HERE.

      Kind of interesting but I can't help feeling that he's doing this just to have SOMETHING in the Fringe! Puts me in mind of Shea Hembrey, but he could probably come up with something like this in the space of ten minutes.

      Is there a septic tank on that little island? If so, how did he get permission for THAT?

      And the point of him doing this is ... ?
