Keith Tyson wins Turner prize And Rodcorp says well done Keith. The media say: Guardian, 6 Dec: the Turner is a turn-off, Tyson's room triggers the most (only?) response from visitors BBC, 8 Dec: Tyson - "Happy birthday nanny" Adrian Searle in the Guardian, 9 Dec: Accessible yet incomprehensible - "Tyson's conceptually inventive and quirky games - like watching Douglas Adams meet Marcel Duchamp over chess - leave me a bit cold" Guardian, 9 Dec, again: wacky boffin of art takes Turner prize with dotty diagrams (includes a good pile of links to related stories) Sky news, 9 Dec: Tyson - My work is all-embracing (includes a good pile of links to related stories) Independent, 9 Dec: "I'm using [my work] to locate myself, to find out where I am" ABC, 9 Dec: architect Daniel Libeskind (presenting the award) - "Art, if you really think about it, is an alarm clock that wakes us up from the inertia of our everyday life" Google: more news, as it comes in 11:14:00 AM     comments
