SHOWTIME.




The Leeds College of Art and Design foundation show was the other night (the 29th of May) went really well. The fashion show went really well! some proper cool stuff... 

the building was packed and really hot, so I took these photos and videos when the show was open this week. 




vice using it - RUN-DMC

vice using it -Edith Piaf



the project looked at drawing and writing and the link between drawing and writing to other things, for example music or cups of teas and cups of coffees... This piece acted as a collection or research point to find out what people favorite song is (when i get all the results back i will post them.)

T







some pictures of some t-shirts i made. there was meant to be a third but i dropped it and then stood on it and it got all dirty.  the scull ones my favorite its some really old illustration i found it in this little book in leeds college of art and design library, the books got loads of pictures that are entitled things like: death, woman killing husband and rape. its a sick book. i cant find the name of the artists and its pissing me off. 


heyhey.

clever plants

went to walk my dog and came across these plants. really clever, they hold water in like a little cup and the over flow from the cup above goes into a bigger cup just bellow. natures really clever. 





thats a wank drawing of the plant, i should find out what the species is i suppose.

Never Stop Working

final major project and foundation are now both over, leaving me with a lot more spare time to do stuff like this. Never stop working is a piece of advice given the other day in a pub, i am to take that advice. 
It was really cool to see everyones work up on the walls of collage, its interesting to see work in other areas that i hadn't had the opportunity to see. On the whole I'm really pleased with my final piece. 



shelf with pencil - cassette tape player - and bag for responses.




pencil in hole




what's your favourite song? and slot for responses. 


the project was based on drawing and the things which are linked with drawing for example music and sound.  Basically when the pencil is picked up the motor on the tape player is on this starts the sound (i did this by placing  a micro switch between the motor for the tape reel and the power.) when the pencil is finished with and retuned to hole the sound stops. 

i might try and include a video of it in action...
