Well, Riddley Wilbur is a gorgeous 'outcome'. Would that it were possible to capture that state of bliss in your picture of him and dispense by the spoonful. I am looking forward to seeing your new production at the Barbican in Feb. Kind regards Amanda On 20 Jan 2012, at 00:34, Phelim McDermott

Bui -- Hall is one of the "founding folks (used to be fathers)" - and he wrote a whole bunch. A later one is called "Beyond Culture" Still pretty relevant, I think. At least it got me seriously thinking all those years ago, and I still page through every now and then. Harrison Harrison Owe
