Photos with Julia

April 29, 2007

Went out with Julia (sorry no link, she’s geek through association only) the other week and took some shots of the area just behind Toast. Was going really well until we got booted out by a security guard for taking photos of government buildings. Here’s what I got before getting turfed out.

Battles

April 23, 2007

I cannot get this song out of my head. I heard thirty seconds of it the other day and I haven’t been able to get the beat out of my mind until I found the video clip on youtube. The band is Battles and their album is out mid-may.

it took a geek to do it.

Miranda July

April 15, 2007

Miranda July has a great idea and makes the website promoting her new book on a white-board. Not only is it quite funny, but it endears you to her writing style before you even think about the book. If nothing else it’s a perfect example of how simple and easy a great idea is on […]

Jeff Han

April 14, 2007

Just to prove to everyone who I’ve told about this (anyone who’s stood still near me in the past few weeks) that I’m not talking out my ass. iPhone who?

Man Killed

Been slack and/or busy, but finally did up the photos from the gig Man Killed played from last month. Great set, lots of people, where were YOU!

Cara Barer

Cara Barer is a photographer and book sculptor. I’m loving her recycled reference books. Gives me a great excuse to read in the bath now.

Backyard

Been meaning to post this for a while. Got frustrated and annoyed with myself, and finally pulled it off my camera and stuck it up. Hope you enjoy, it’s the backyard of my house. I did plan on having Neal in it but it was cold and he kept moving so he came out all […]

Graffiti Printer

Graffiti Printer
Way too cool for words. Thanks to Owen for the link.

Kate Bush and Rowan Atkinson

I mentioned this to Owen the other night and thought that I’d better post it. The first video is Rowan Atkinson (then of Not the Nine O’Clock news fame, and soon to be of Blackadder) and Kate Bush singing a song that Rowan wrote (possibly nsfw).
The second video is a skit that Rowan helped to […]

Topping Off

April 9, 2007

A little while ago I was on the bus going past the construction sites in the city and I took the pics below. The tree at the top of this building site made me laugh uncontrollably. If I was in charge of a crane I’d be doing stuff like this all the time but apparently […]

xkcd

Loving xkcd.

Ipod book Mod

April 2, 2007

So I’ve got a new Ipod Nano. It’s a sexy and slim little 2gb and I want to keep it safe and away from harm. Especially for when I travel, iPods are probably the most likely items to be stolen. So what do I do? I do what this intelligent person has done and make […]

Robot Chicken

Part of my childhood died while watching this. But that’s okay, because it fueled my adult sick sense of humour.

Picasso

It’s incredibly interesting to see the process that happens here.
