Escape For/From You


Wouldn't it be great. Well. Maybe. If I could still get the metty to the cinema, and it had the backbone for a woodburning stove... and enough solar panels to charge my laptop. Those issues being covered... we'd ship up and move out!

SX-70 Love pt 1



All production of new work is on hold... as I just found an SX-70 at a car boot and bought 6 films for it! A design masterpiece aesthetically... as well as a really functional SLR Polaroid. I loves it.

See you on the other side

My Favourite Thing (Vegetable, Animal or Mineral)





Go see 'Coaster Scenery's amazing collection of images of Great Yarmouth Pleasure Beach. Having spent 18 years growing up in the shadow of this place, it certainly makes me glow to wander through these images. I could spend all day everyday just looking through them

(The image second from top is the day the roller coaster collapsed. THE ROLLER COASTER COLLAPSED! You heard right!)

We don't want to conform

Bill Owens is the boss man of documenting 1950's/50's suburban America. It speaks for itself. But if you need more, go pick up 'Suburbia' or 'Leisure' as the quotes from the subjects are a priceless insight into the original era of off the shelf optimism




Century of the Self


Its about time I a) blogged more b) actually treated this like a pure real blog and that. SO! Have a deeks at this. A four part documentary about the psychological changes throughout the 20th century, how we were, we developed, were manipulated. Its really good, truuuuust me... i'll keep you right
