"I know nothing that can give a better notion of infinity and eternity than the being upon the sea in a little vessel without anything in sight but yourself and the whole hemisphere."
Samuel Pepys, Secretary of the Navy and diarist, c. 1670.

John,
I came across your blog while doing research on Aubrey Beardsley. I wondered if you knew where I might be able to obtain DVDs or press screeners of "Beardsley and his Work," as well as footage of your play "Aubrey." I'd very much like to see both. I'm an arts journalist, and it would be helpful for research I'm conducting at the moment. Please get in touch, as time allows - tyler.coburn@gmail.com
And happy sailing,
Tyler
