Friday's social whirl

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 [...]

It's just that time of year…

I've been quite the social party animal this past week. 'Tis the season and all, except that most of the events weren't actually related Christmas. It's all been a bit mad, so be prepared for a series of long posts.
On Tuesday night I went to the Webby Night at the ICA, which was quite [...]

Another crafty Saturday…

Was back at the St Aloysius Social Club again on Saturday, this time for the Bust Christmas Craftacular. More crowded than the previous two events I'd been to there recently, and entry wasn't even free this time! Although they were handing out a guide to the tables. It was a pretty shoddy guide, though, two [...]

Craftwerk crimbo goodies

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.)

handmade weekend part 2

On Sunday, I ventured out of the house in the moments between rain storms and went to Craftwerk at the St Aloyisius Social Club. I almost didn't make it out of the house at all, thanks to total DIY FAIL on the part of my stupid, stupid neighbours. They apparently decided a little while ago, [...]

I went to Comiket on Saturday, part of this year's Comica festival, which was pretty cool. It was nice to catch up with some of the [...]

I need your help

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, [...]

linkdumping

What do you get when a pair of artists join forces with residents of a Pittsburgh street and Google? A Street with a view. I'm reminded of a conversation I had quite recently (I forget who with, sorry!) about persuading your neighbours to collaborate on ways to create giant messages/artworks to be seen on Google [...]

sunset over Pimlico

William Turner would have loved the skies over the Tate Britain and Vauxhall Bridge last Friday.

I know I did.

I'm having lots of fun with Poladroid today. It works well with this old berry-face photo I took last year.
