London at its Finist
19ths Centaury was indeed a different and most dangerous world. Thereabouts London was full of diabolical aspects that for the most part was hidden from society. Behind the veil most that taken to the hospitals did not survive as it was common to become infected and or not survive surgery. But something else was taking place and it is was in the name of science. Corpses have been discovered on the grounds; bodies that had been mutilated for research and discarded like garbage. The unfortunate victims never to fully rest became specimens for those learning to become doctors. More about this in Archeology May/June 2013

Pop Ups
I have always enjoyed architecture and no less would I enjoy going to what is now called "Pop Ups" Co Founder Joop De Boer has formed this idea that things do not last. So he has been creating Pop up restaurants and art galleries that only seem to last for a few days and then vanish without a trace. Read in the September 2012 NG Travel Magazine.

Outisde Lands
Juxtapoz covers the Outside Lands 2012 art and music festival, which is full of art, music, and a traveling circus. This is something I would like to attended. Would be a great place to take photos!
And the Final Bid is....
Gareth Willimas of Bonhms and auction house-and article in Nov. 12th 2012 Juxtaoz gives an interview about this auction house. In relation to its London based location and now located in other cities such as New York. The auction house as mainly dealt with Contemporary art, urban, and modern has inked its way into selling street art that has gained reputations. Without have a reputations your art would probably not be considered. So my advice find a few people to become your mainstream patron and art collector of your work.
