Grafik Magazine are on Wikipedia!!

Some news, I've been doing an internship at Grafik Magazine and they asked me to make them a wikipage, take a look here at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grafik_Magazine, surprisingly not that difficult to do once you spend a few hours wondering how to do simple f*cking web editting!

Mail Art...work that avoids doing proper work

Three Lucky people about to receive some seriously shit music
in the post on cassette format (Who has a cassette player anymore)
but I have a few to shift so I might do a series of these...
providing they arrive safe and sound in the post. This was something
I just decided I'd do today, not sure if it was a complete waste of time
but I had fun doing them.
Shit Music, but all appropriate in some sense to the person

Two gifts I sent mum for Mothers Day, It took a lot of hard thinking,
but I decided to put the card in this really cool illustrated envelope I claimed
from the Grafik office when they were clearing up for their big move out.
Mothers Day Card 2010:
I'ts not that I'm a cheapskate, I just prefer making cards for people
who mean a lot to me and it makes recieving a card LATE in the
post all that more touching when its personal to you and the person.
It's meant to be a sheep in a field-admittedly terrible choice of colours

Olympics 2012 : Toilet Diving at Home




For this project we came up with a few ideas to play on how we could bring the Olympic games into our homes. I suggested we go back to my flat and stage an Olympic event (Toilet Bath diving and holding your breath) in my bathroom. I think they turned out perfectly and definately have an edge over the digital photos we took on my Nikon SLR, with abit more of a grainy, voyeuristic feel and the colour/lighting is all so homely. Were thinking our next move will be to create a series of posters and maybe put them together into a big book or olympic style brochure. Photos were shot using a Lomo FishEye lens with 200 35mm colour film by the lovely Adrian Curcher and Butch lesbian type Alice Dobie.

Summary: Not too serious, Funny to watch, Semi-Nudity involved and kinky speedos = British
