Two Little Pictures



These are two little pictures from my iPhone. 'Open Your' is marked on my wall with little bits of black paper and bluetack'ed in place. This was meant to be for the opening sequence of the upcoming production project for uni but we have changed our idea slightly now.
The other image is what was projected onto the wall in my seminar today-when my lecturer put the projector on it was broken and created this projection-something someone would spend hours trying to design, so naturally I stood in front of it and took my picture.

Old Cameras




Went into an antique shop I've not visited before up the hill near The Collection in Lincoln today on a scouting mission for materials for the next project from me and Rhys Grant. These looked awesome-think I may invest in one or two of them come pay day on Thursday!!

This lad just loves his Fanta!! @Rhys Grant

Samhain by RebelSonix

Just signed up to Sound Cloud today thanks to a tip off from Bec. It's pretty sweet, just been checking out the dubstep links on there. Here's one I like a lot.

5 Minute Self Portrait


This is a 5 minute project I did which has turned out as a bit of a self portrait. I just had an idea floating around in my head about faceless images and thought I'd give it a quick go. Hopefully I'll work on the concept a bit more in the future in better quality and detail.

Nas + MF Doom = NastraDoomus

I'm just at home for an hour in between uni and have been looking for tunes on youtube and found this little gem. Only a remix-never an actual colab but still really good.

Portraits of Bec




35mm portrait of Bec Evans.

Todays Tunes.

Today I've been working on my dissertation. It's titled 'The International Typographic Style: It's use and value in modern graphic design'. I've been doing more research into the origins of typographic communication and the 'Swiss Style'. On monday it will be 2 months to the day of the hand in. 10,000 words. It's a ball ache but good to be learning so much about a topic.
So I have been listening to loads of tunes while working on it today, here's a few.

Till Suns in Your Eye - DJ Vadim

Dael - Autechre

You Could Ruin my Day - Four Tet

Loungin' - Guru


Sofa King - DangerDoom

Elder Blossoms - Metal Fingers

1st Year Self Portraiture

In my first year of uni we had to experiment with self portraiture for our portfolio. On reflection these are really rough but show where I started in contrast to where I am now and what I have learned in the last few years. This is a quicktime showreel that we had to produce to hand in, the project was inspired and named after the Burial - Ghost Hardware track. I'll link the tune via. youtube and maybe you can play them both in sync so you can see how it was meant to be viewed.

BMX Bike


Saw this awesome BMX bike chained up outside uni the other week so I took a picture on my iPhone and created it into this.

Got Milk?

Got Milk? is the documentary film to go with the Recycle installation project by myself and Rhys Grant.

Recycle Project.


This was an installation project that I created in collaboration with Rhys Grant. We lit the milk bottles with L.E.D lights and then paraded the piece around Lincoln City Center. We recorded the entire process of the project with a documentary film.
