Amusing, watching this play out..

Patricia Nicol writes in the Sunday Times about Alexi Mostrous's podcast on the #HampsteadCase
Seems Nicol's is a fan of Marina Abramovic

standard.co.uk/esmagazine/art…
"She sits poised and immaculate, wearing a Burberry Riccardo Tisci silk monogrammed blouse and tailored black trousers. A mug of murky builders’ brew is placed in her hand and her response is rapturous. ‘Oh my god how you manifest this?!’ she declares.."

" When she lived in Notting Hill Gate in 1971 , [Abramovic] washed dishes and got sacked as a postal worker for discarding official-looking letters..Now ..she will be the first woman in the institution’s 250-year history to have a solo show across all of the RA’s main galleries"
"I have been in Abramović’s charismatic presence before, not that she could be expected to remember. In the summer of 2014, I was one of 129,916 visitors to her show 512 Hours at the Serpentine Gallery.."

serpentinegalleries.org/whats-on/marin…
"The forerunner of the public’s leading role in that piece was Abramović’s 2010 blockbuster, The Artist is Present, at New York’s Museum of Modern Art. The most popular show in MoMA’s history.."

🤔
"More than 1,000 participants — among them Björk , a teary Jemima Kirke, Lou Reed, Sharon Stone, James Franco and Rufus Wainwright — queued to sit at a simple wooden table opposite Abramović.."

🙄

"The work inspired the video for Jay-Z’s ‘Picasso Baby’. "

"That piece reflected a hunger among audiences for immersive, experiential culture, an area Abramović continues to explore. ‘That’s absolutely [of the] moment right now,’ she says..."

"Injury.. has played a key role in Abramović’s career.. She still bears scars from when things got dangerous..she set alight the 5 points of a communist star then leapt to its centre, could have killed her"

'Communist star' 😇
"Abramović, who dedicated her 2016 memoir Walk Through Walls ‘to friends and enemies’, says she comes from a ‘dark place’. She means aesthetically — post-war communist Belgrade ‘was a very ugly place’ — but also emotionally...
Abramović’s finicky, severe, hygiene-obsessed mother, a senior party figure, brought her daughter ‘up to be a soldier’. "
"There are frequent, scandalously untethered claims from Americans on social media that ‘Spirit Cooking’ — a recurring Abramović series invoking mystical incantations poetically — marks her out as a high priestess to Satan. "
"At the opposite cultural extreme, there are long-standing fans who complain that she has embraced the mainstream and become a brand. They question whether the Marina Abramović Institute , .. is about creating a legacy, or monetising her process."

GG : "The parallel between the SOE's secret WWII stations and modern dark kitchens is structurally identical. .. Image
During the Second World War, the Special Operations Executive (SOE)—Winston Churchill's secret "Ministry of Ungentlemanly Warfare"—maintained deep, highly covert connections to London's vast manufacturing and industrial sectors, including Park Royal. ..

Rather than standard military bases, the SOE embedded its clandestine workshops directly into regular commercial zones, leveraging London's industrial heartlands to disguise their operations.

Vessels traveling between the Strait of Otranto and the Kerch Strait are directly linked as part of a continuous shipping route. This critical maritime corridor connects the Mediterranean Sea to the Black Sea and the Sea of Azov .. Image
The Maritime Route & Chokepoints

For shipping logistics, a vessel moving between these two points must navigate a specific chain of interconnected waterways:

1. The Strait of Otranto: The starting/ending point that connects the Adriatic Sea to the Ionian Sea Image
2. The Mediterranean-Black Sea Transit: Ships must travel through the Aegean Sea and then navigate through the Turkish Straits (the Dardanelles and the Bosporus), which are tightly regulated chokepoints.

" A Byline Times review of X and Telegram posts by the Brotherhood of Academists, a Russian ultranationalist youth movement which operates under the leadership of the US-sanctioned Tsargrad Society [Konstantin Malofeev]" 🤔 Image
I wonder if there are any connections to Brunswick, a dominant investment bank in 1990s Russia where Will Draper worked for a while 🤔
GG : "No direct operational link exists between the Brotherhood of Academists and Brunswick Capital (the 1990s investment bank). However, they are connected through the broader history of post-Soviet finance and the career trajectory of Russian oligarch Konstantin Malofeev."🤔 Image

"The sight of Princess Beatrice dancing on tables at a birthday party in Rome last week, and then appearing with Princess Eugenie at the wedding of Peter Phillips, suggests that it’s business as usual for the York daughters...
This is despite last week’s National Audit Office report, which revealed that Queen Elizabeth II & now the King have long been covering a subsidised rent for Beatrice’s 4-bedroomed apartment at St James’s Palace and Eugenie’s three-bedroom Ivy Cottage..

2020 : "The subject of a recent TV drama, the White House Farm murders bring back some very personal memories for Peter Gruner" Image
Colin was traumatised with grief after the murder of his six-year-old twin sons, Daniel and Nicholas, ex-wife Sheila, and her parents Nevill and June Bamber. They were all shot dead at White House Farm, the Bambers’ quiet country home in Essex."

Colin Caffell, incidentally, is convinced of Bamber’s guilt.

In the book Colin describes how, in a distraught state, he seeks solace in the paranormal, taking advice from the late entertainer Michael Bentine whose son Stuart died in a plane crash aged 21 in 1971."..
