Human pyramid


Ok, I know this isnt particularly relevant to anything but its a great photo that captures all of the 2 and a half seconds we managed to hold this completely spontaneous human pyramid at a folk punk show in durham over christmas.

Oooh, gig poster


I'm not sure who actually designed this, its hard to get in touch with my mate who would know as well, but this is a poster for a gig im playing in durham in a couple of weeks.

I like this style but its a bit miserable, obviously relating to the headline act's name. the use of clashing colours is reminiscent of Never Mind The Bollocks.

DIY NOT EMI


This is just function over image i guess. Literally just a sheet of paper folded around the cd. lush paper though! looks like its well travelled haha.




I really like the illustrations on Mike Park's CD. It reflects his personality perfectly - especially "bye daddy". It would have been interesting to see it with different colours though. i love that someone over the pond printed the artwork by hand as well!

Silly Reflections






I've noticed the way that glass or other reflective surfaces reflect and distort landscapes and images for quite a while now.

this was especially obvious in amsterdam for some reason.

Amsterdam

Went to amsterdam over reading week.
it was an action packed week of museums, the zoo, photography and coffee shopping it up.
unfortunately, we couldnt take photos in museums, but the streets were awash with graffiti, so i guess the whole city's a bit of a museum.

Halloween

I was going to go as a chav (or charv - we had the word in the north east first!) but i looked in the mirror and thought:
"Ah crap, its a little TOO convincing". I thought people would be asking where my costume was.

After listening to a punk band called Latterman, I discovered one of their songs entitled "Zombies Are Pissed". I decided that the title was so good that I ended up designing a zombie tshirt with the slogan stencilled on.

I took a plain white tshirt, tea stained the shit out of it, squirted red and yellow ink all over it and then cut it up a little bit.

It started out as a costume, but i think i'll be wearing it regularly cos its well impressive.
