The Universe

Here are the digital files for the piece me and Zac did for The Edge of Print exhibition on Thursday. It's a double sided picture with the universe on one side and then the code that makes up the image on the other. The idea was to try and expose the part of print in our modern age that you never really see (the .jpg code) and put it into print) We're heading into hackney to hang tomorrow so will hopefully have some photos of the prints, which are HUGE tomorrow, so you can see it in all it's glory.

The Edge of Print

In our digitally driven age, is print with its varying forms relevant to the progression of contemporary design? Kingston design students respond to what print means to them and the evolving industry, which has traditionally seen print as an integral part of its output.

The little blurb above explains the exhibition I'll be taking part in on Thursday better than I ever could. All I have to say really is you should come down and see all the amazing work! It's destined to be a great evening. I'll post some photos of the piece I have in the show when it's all done, which hopefully should be very soon.

A little update to the ole' website

I've been kind of sick of my website for a while and I thought it was about time I got that shit updated. At the moment all I've done is added a new opening page and a couple of new projects. Hopefully new stuff will be added over the next couple as I'll be finishing off some projects that can get added too, so watch this space!

It Snowed

I've had this app called Gawker, which instantly creates time lapse videos for you using the mac's webcam sitting on my computer begging to be used for the last couple of months. So what better way to use it than make a cliche video of the snow falling? I started it off at about 8pm and let it run till 11am the next morning. Nothing else to it really.

Nothing Happening Here

This is a very quick little experiment I did today that is a very first step in me trying to visualize and understand the scale of nothingness that is present on the internet. It is a wall of videos which I found on youtube, all of which had under 500 views and don't really serve any purpose. They're videos of things like flowers blowing in the wind, a train passing in the snow, a family having dinner, a kid playing baseball lots of tiny little moments that would go unnoticed on the hubub of the internet. I wanted to see what would happen if all of these moments happened at once and it's kind of overwhelming. They kind of become something. I'm still not really 100% sure what I'm trying to say with it, or how i really want people to interact with it. But yeah as a starting point it's kind of exciting.
