Life Form  -  John Coppinger

I work as a freelance sculptor and designer, mostly for films and museums ( See Museum work, CV, and Film
work pages below ).  I'll be adding more information as time goes by, and trying to keep all the pages dynamic.
The central theme of this site is the anatomy and design of life in all it's forms, both on this planet now and in
the past and as it may exist elsewhere.  Also the realms of our Monsters and where I think they come from.
See
a Monsters Essay, below - From an idea by Mike Tremblay:

Life gives us consciousness, and therefore the Universe becomes aware of itself.

Thrust SSC - SuperSonic Car

Richard Noble with SSC + Link to his site

This page is a Photo-Diary of six weeks on the Black Rock Desert, Nevada. The whole project was genuinely
extra-ordinary , and I'm still amazed at how lucky I was to be involved with it. Richard Noble, the team he put
together, the car itself and Andy Green driving it, all expressed the true and best meaning of 'Best of British'.
