I was there before. I was there before the vision. I was there before the transformation. I was there before the transformers. I was there with the transformers.
Sitting, brooding, humming, its tall chimney cast giant shadows over Old Father. Generation and transformation, I was there. Gargantuan beasts crowded the turbine hall. It was alive, live and overwhelming.
I wasn't even whelmed. I was on my mission. An internship with the CEGB. The beasts were a bonus.
How apt when human transformers replaced transformers. A transformation and new home for the output of 21st Century generators. But is it art?

This was prompted by a BBC4 radio programme today 'The Reunion', looking back at the opening of the Tate Modern in 2000 with the key movers and shakers who made it happen. But I was there before!
