Although I don't make resolutions, one thing I do tend to do in the new year is make a concerted effort to go to more exhibitions (which often peters out later in the year). I think one of the reasons is because lots of exhibitions seem to end at the start of the year. I've seen three exhibitions already…

(They do on Flickr, anyway. Pics all link to the images on Flickr. Quite a few images are on sale through peoples' websites, too, so check their profile pages.)

Before I start this post properly, there's something I have to go on record about. Despite what Rich Johnston may have said in his most recent LITG, I am not and, never have been, a museum curator. On the other hand, I suppose I am a curator of some sort, all the same, just as [...]

One of the things that I'd planned to do when I launched this new site back in September was to use the space to interview some of the interesting creative people I know. Here we have the first of these, a Q&A with cartoonist Gary Northfield.

And then it was Friday, and I was late for Tuttle, but Lloyd said it was the best excuse he'd heard (so that's all right), and I got to experience what is fast becoming one of my favourite weekly rituals, a really good natter about random shit over coffee with my mate Guy (who has [...]

Was back at the St Aloysius Social Club again on Saturday, this time for the Bust Christmas Craftacular.

It was a pretty shoddy guide, though, two [...]

When I came home from Craftwerk last Sunday, I had quite a haul of business cards for cool independent creative people who sell their wares online. Just in time for Christmas, I can pass their names and websites along to you! (Pictures below link to the individual shops if you click on them.)

I kind of [...]

Not a huge haul from Comiket. I would be linking to more things I at least liked the look of, even if I didn't buy them, except that nobody had any business cards for me to remember who they all were. So you only get recommendations of things I actually paid for.

this year's issue of [...]

I want to print one of these as a postcard, but can't decide which version I prefer? You can help me out! Please tell me which design you like better.

Also, can anyone recommend to me a good postcard printer? Preferably based in London or near enough to London that I can, if I need to, [...]
