Edgelands

I can't help but feel a little jealousy as Skreeworld, bar the odd digression in to personal events has , largely been a photographic chronicle of the Edgelands along with brief prose to clarrify. It is no coincidence that the poets who wrote the book, Paul Farley and Michael Symmons Roberts quote and percieve The Fall as fellow walkers of the Edgelands, the painter George Shaw too, Gordon Burn, the writer. We are all on the same path. With the success of Edgelands, the general lack of Skreeworld followers though the blogs most contemporary and accurate outlook on England today, it would be a travesty of justice were George not to win the Turner Prize. Mind you, it'll probably go to someone who has had the wisdom to turn a shoe box upside down to illustrate the inversion of observation and gullibillity of the judges. I hope it is the Edgelanders year, Shaw deserves it. Skreeworld should get it really though I doubt they are ready to accept a blog as an artwork yet.
