Growing up?



As promised, the Reading '07 and '08 wristbands are now separated from my body exactly 4 years and 3 years after I went to each respectively. Did feel weird. Nope, they never stank, they were always washed with the rest of me! My wrist feels awfully naked.

Bored? You know what that means...

Colour code all the things!
Yeah!
Yeah...

Such a hipster.

Visuals for Avenge Vulture Attack Launch Party - Video.

Albeit 2 months later than planned, but here it is. A small video I put together of the night myself and 65 made visuals for AVA's launch party. Shame we didn't get a lot of moving image footage during the actual gig itself, I'll ask round to see if anyone has some footage they'd like to share.

Summer iv

Some more..

 IT'S SAND
 When I was younger I used to think if you jumped from a great height onto sand that it'll swallow you like water would.

 "MATTHEW HUNGRY"
 "WHERE DA FOOD DAD?" "IT HERE MATTHEW"
 "DAD EAT NOW"
 "DAD APPROVE"
 Who needs a pet dog when you have Matthew Kyle about.
 "I take photos too Jamie, hyuck!"


 'The gang'
 Dad and Mum making a quick escape.
 Parp.


 Five different types of semiotics, what is this world coming to?!


 This isn't edited at all, beautiful colours along Carbis Bay.



That's all my Cornwall snaps. Hopefully will get more of the 'Summer' and get more in the motion of bringing my camera out with me.

Summer iii

Went to Cornwall for the week.
Maz and Faz on train.
 Pap picking us up, he owns better t-shirts than me.
 "Soon we'll be in St Ives, Jamie"
 "I'm going to touch all the things in St Ives, Jamie"

Did the annual trip to Tate St Ives, really good exhibitions this year. The main theme was 'Spatial Design' and how we observe space itself. This artist, Martin Creed, filled up the room with white balloons allowing us to experience space in a different way, with the balloons acting as a visual representation for the volume/space of the room. Really enjoyed this, it had an immensely playful nature to it encouraging a very childlike engagement to it.





 "HELLO JAMIE"





Tilt your head for this one.



(EDIT: Found this Photo 5/8/11)

This was another interaction piece by the artist Roman Ondak. You were invited by one of the workers there to have your height measured, with your name and the date tagged with it. It's called 'Measuring the Universe' with the idea being that each visitor leaves a physical trace of their visit. I was only allowed to take a photo of my exact spot of my name but I can't see it there clearly anymore, which kinda is the point really, all these marks building up to form a dense black band running across the gallery walls, reminds of a black hole almost.
