13 July 2014. Digital Revolution at Barbican

An interesting exhibition tracing the evolution of digital technology from the 1970s (with PETs and the Apple IIe) up to the present day. The contemporary exhibits were pretty amazing, particularly Pyramidi by will.i.am and Yuri Suzuki

9 July Ai Weiwei at Lisson Gallery

An excellent exhibition at the Lisson, featuring Ai Wewei's bicycle sculptures. All the bicycles were in bright stainless steel, welded to create captivating wholes. The exhibition also featured a film 'discard the old path of closed doors and rigidity and reject evil attempts to change the Party's banner' which dealt with the removal of taxi windown crank handles and sealing of bus wiindows to prevent the distribution of leaflets in TiananmenSquare.

12 July 2014. Theo Parrish at Barbican

A sell out for Theo Parrish and an excellent band plus four dancers. The music varied from get-to-you-feet to more sit-and-listen.
