So this was originally us attempting to get into the Barbican conservatory, but there was filming there when we arrived and it was closed to the public. I wonder what they were filming…
Anyway we went for a wander around the Barbican and man it gave me such liminal energy. It was a pretty rainy day so no one was around, so it really felt like I was in a video game environment that was yet to populated, like I was a Beta tester.
After a bit of wandering we found the Museum of London. My girlfriend was still staying with me at the time, and she is a costume designer (just saying she has worked on Netflix series the Witcher and the `Welsh Millennium Centre) so I was getting a lot of good insight into costume design from here and how literally no one cares about historical accuracy because most of the time it looks stupid, so people pick and choose aesthetics. That’s probably why fantasy stuff appeals to me so much just it’s just the best bits.
