What fun to finally give my annual wonder lecture at UCL this afternoon. Thanks for having me

12/07/2024

A few years ago I was travelling home west by train and got to Paddington to discover that all the trains were cancelled.

A hoard of people, maybe a thousand or more, had to trek across to Waterloo and wind their way home via alternative coaches and trains….

This was fine for me but along the journey I found an elderly lady struggling in the current of this human tide.

Naturally I offered her my help and she travelled under my wing so to speak. By the time I got to Waterloo I had gathered three elderly women who had all been struggling to make their way in the haste. I didn’t think anything of it and said goodbye to them when we all reached our destination, Chippenham station.

A couple days later, out of the blue, I received an email from Derren Brown’s publicist Greg. It turns out one of the lady’s was his mother in law and with very little intel to go with (Tom, inventor, Wiltshire) they tracked me down and invited me to the VIP night of Derren’s new show Miracle. I took my wife Charlie and we loved it. Charlie sat next to Martin Freeman. The whole cast of The League of Gentlemen were sat directly behind us. It was surreal.

Now, every time there is a new show I receive an invitation to attend and it’s a highlight of my year.

You never know where a little act of kindness might lead you. So keep your eyes peeled for somebody who needs your help.

Thanks Derren. Thanks Greg.

Love.

I’m seeking a patron for Wonder to help me create me public installation at St Paul’s Cathedral. I wonder who?

Help me to create a public space for Wonder & a moving memorial to peace

Never have I been so proud to make a new friend.

Three weeks ago I found myself in real need.

Sonya suffered a sudden cardiac arrest in her car by the school and by chance I was at the scene with others and we got her out of the vehicle and started CPR. The ambulance took 38 minutes to arrive (because of floods) and she faced a critical 48hrs in an induced coma.

With continuous help from dear Rachel Bristow who was extraordinarily fast acting, a heroic punch and wrestling open of the defibrillator by Sonya’s son Fraser and Barney (because no one answered the phone to give them the code!) - a few other cool heads and help especially from Hamadi - we were able to sustain her long enough to get medical assistance.

It was pretty intense. At one point she basically died and then came back and I never missed a beat. So Sonya is something of a miracle.

I’ve been in touch almost daily with her husband Jon but Sonya and I met for the first time today ❤️🙏❤️

I’m sharing this because life is too short not celebrate this extraordinary story. She has made a remarkable recovery in such a short space of time and holds such grace and spirit and I’m honoured to be a part of her miraculous story.

Bless you Sonya ✨

I’m so sorry about hurting your ribs.

It’s a true blessing to have become friends with you.

On CPR:

Poor CPR is better than no CPR.
Best to get training but honestly I was going on my knowledge from cubs 38 years ago!
Be bold and act quickly.
Stay calm and sustain your energy.
Try to always know where the nearest defibrillator is.
Trust that you can do it!
Never ever give up!

Love you Sonya and wish you so well with your recovery x

Wonder art posted with • However the beast was not alone, it was serving as a sentinel. Behind it was another entity, guarding an endless loop of life, human creativity itself.

challenged me to bring his Wonder sculpture to my work. I think it's not possible to do justice to such a beautiful and mesmerizing piece.
Take a look at Tom’s work and give his account a following. His work is fascinating!

Here is an hour loop of Wonder for meditation! ✨ What a wonderful thing made by one of my customers.

What started as a daydream has become Tom’s most wondrous creation yet. Inspired by the patterns of toroidal flow Tom imagined encircling himself, the natura...

Handlebars that honk! Ha!

Ten years ago Channel 4 gave me the opportunity to make a TV show… we were looking to inspire people to live with a bit more imagination. So I built a floating home which was kind of like an imaginarium of innovations. This was my show reel.

Let me know if you saw it? I think it’s on you tube somewhere. Maybe I should do something else again? Or not, it doesn’t matter. I am pleased to be better known for my real creative work but I’d love to make a film about Wonder & inspire more conscious creativity.

The original Wonder when it first arrived at Malmesbury Abbey and was in Saint Aldhelm’s chapel. Rufus in the background on the piano.

Wonder at Malmesbury Abbey ✨

More Wonder encounters at Brimscombe Mill. If you are near Stroud you can visit Wonder Monday - Saturday 10-4pm where it sits beside The Long Table in a sanctuary space.

This isn’t ai.

This is what happens when human creativity inspires more creativity.

Indeed, wonder begets wonder.

Natural intelligence is creative intelligence ✨

We imagined a modern museum of quantum science with a high-tech architecture inspired by Tom Lawton 's sculpture 'Wonder'

I’ve successfully cast two giant wonders in solid bronze at 100cm each - one is for a private customer. At 80kg it’s going to be finished in polished silver and mounted on a mirrored, stainless steel turntable, which will look unreal. Ready for installation in six weeks. The other will be finished in polished gold and is looking for a special home - such thing anyone here can think of one?

It’s rare as rare can be - this has taken 11 months to achieve (after a couple years of trial and error). Price on application.

I’d love for it to go somewhere public but it has tremendous benefit through visual harmonics to bring peace to any wellness space so I’m wondering about a corporate campus somewhere?

Happy sixteenth birthday to my extraordinary son Barney who some of you might remember as my co-star from Tom’s Fantastic Floating Home, which we filmed ten years ago this summer when Barney turned six!!
