'to the knowledgeable silent few who have no interest in .. Photograph - Limited Edition of 200

.. self gratification that society demands' .. yoy um well um ok .. the first time i saw these words they were written on the side of a wall of a soho alleyway in one continuous straight line so you could read them as you walked along the alley there in 1993 .. so i quickly wrote it all down in my notebook pronto while holding up a friend without realising these words actually came from a song in the musical 'hair' from 1979 and wasnt an original piece at all .. and then years later and still none the wiser or its origins, i updated it a little then jumped up a ladder at 2am with a pot of paint and just kind of went for it there on an old disused pub opposite where i lived in kingsland road .. then half way through a plain clothes police car pulled up with 4 policemen in it - and as the drivers seat window wound down i was promptly asked what i was doing there - i said all cush and i know the owners of the pub and they gave me permission to do all this before they do the place up in a couple of months - he said ok, lets see what you're writing then - so i handed him my A5 bit of scribbled on paper i was dictating from and and a minute later was handed it back with him saying i had spelling mistakes here, here and here .. i complained about being dyslexic as they sped on their way with me feeling very very lucky there indeed .. so the next day i decided to go back up at 4pm in broad daylight with a traffic jam over looking too with no attempt at incognitoness whatsoever - and this time the only thing to occur was a guy beeping his horn from a 2CV opening his window and giving me the thumbs up .. (also the continued smaller writing underneath is all other thoughts from notebooks at the time) .. and in all, was right fun doing this one - and eventually it did last around 2 years before the pub was indeed refurbished and everything was painted over and replaced by a single neon sign saying 'on the rocks' .. what to do here
