My latest cartoon for @newscientist.com
As we join the great theoretical scientist, he is deep in thought. So still, quiet and focused that he might almost be asleep. But inside that brilliant mind, what new idea is forming? What certainty is being meticulously interrogated? What ingenious theory is ready to change our world forever? (the scientist snores lightly) Ah, it seems he actually is asleep. And that's fine. Science is hard and not every day can be a success. We will come back another time.

My parents made this bird sculpture from various bits of wood and old metal they found in their shed and made a perch for it on the sawn-off trunk of a dead tree, and it makes for some great folk horror winter sunset photos.

Public consultation opens on plans for future of Summerhall
A public consultation has opened on proposals to secure the future of Edinburgh arts venue Summerhall. Developer AMA is setting out emerging plans for an Arts Quarter to address the site's financial and physical challenges. Residents, artists and businesses have until Friday 23 October to review the proposals and provide feedback. A public drop-in event will take place on Wednesday 7 October to allow visitors to view the plans in person. Since the Royal Dick Veterinary College vacated the premises in 2011, Summerhall has operated as a base for artists, performers, creative organisations and small businesses.
