The making of the Toshiba Space Chair - INTERVIEW: How high it went, how it was done and who'd already done it before
The Arts Catalyst Wouldn't it be great if Toshiba would give Simon Faithful credit for the idea behind their latest HD ad? Artists breaking the ground for others to follow! Perhaps they'd like to support The Arts Catalyst in future and get some really innovative work - Simon's piece was part of our Artists Airshow back in 2004.
