The Cape Farewell Arts Festival: artists going to Greenland to look at global warming’s frontline. KT Tunstall (above) “rocks it up” (as I believe the young folks may once have said – I’m too old to keep up now) with the house band (Disko Bay Blues) at Murphy’s Bar in Ilulissat. Or there’s Robyn Hitchcock doing Cocaine, some pictorial aperçus by Jarvis (Pulp) Cocker, even carbon dioxide art. Andy Revkin was invited but couldn’t make it. Daft bugger. I’m probably too wrinkly, but I’d have loved to be there…

yeah. Me too. Although maybe not for the music – I’ve been to Ilulissat once; the surrounds were beautiful beyond words.
My friend Nick went on the last journey.
His beautiful photos here. One of them was published in TIME’s photos of the year last year.
