Confusion Hill circa 2002

Mon, 11 Aug 2008 23:19:26 GMT

this has to be the best road side attraction i have ever seen. i havent seen many. but this is really wonderful. The guy with the beard..he takes you on a train tour of his old chainsaws,stopping to look at the last train that crashed along the way. The house they are in is apparently defying gravity. Like the crooked houses you get at fair grounds. The skulls and the chipolopes were my favourites i think. My cousin was about 3 or 4 when we went. it is one of her favourite places too.

I am really looking forward to finishing my degree,sadly,partly,because i will be able to write on things like this without the nagging thing in the back of my mind decided what i do and dont include. Surely the fact i am using this as part of a research file would mean it would be more coherent and interesting. but in fact it is just a load of rambling crap interspersed with pretty pictures.

So today i am so very tired after traveling to black pool yesterday and coming back to my home town today.I really liked blackpool and feel a weekend is needed there. I have a definite solid gold attraction to seaside crap. The shittier the better. What is that?
I saw bjork. It was wonderful,glitter and lasers in a massive beautiful ballroom. really lovey. And i did some bad drawings.

Why is it that as soon as i start to form some vaugue identity to my work it seems to instantaneously slip away. It's frustrating and its starting to make me thing that i am constantly having an identity crisis. worrying indeed.
Thsi week is scheduled as screen printing in a big way.I have worked out my time and will be hopefully two thirds done by the end of the week. Well thats if i can afford it all. Also the 'dildo's' are all glazed. They really loko wonderful im so happy. Like fine porcelain beauty's. The only problem now is getting the laser trans to work. We have been assured so many times by various people that they work just as well as ceramic transfers.. only to find they dont work at all. damn.
I have four weeks left, this worrys me. at least i now have a bar job.. possibilty of a 'proper' job when i finish too.
but i want to go to LA. NOW please. i miss it like a big palm tree shaped hole in my heart.
fun times this week... go back to the house and bake and watch horror with kayleigh and emma.. yesss.. then tuesday go watch martin play support to the band he is in'light speed champion' at KOKO. Maybe have some afterward fun at our house. hm fun.
oh and no more unnecessary dating for me. its troublesome..well i think anyway.. maybe.

how strange

Tue, 29 Apr 2008 10:56:49 GMT

when you find someones work that just reminds you of your own work in many spooky ways.. but also is about a million times better than your own work. Chris Chau.. yes ive been hitting up various 'magazine' type 'blogs'. But this is rather lovely..

by the way once my degree is over this is going to become more of what it is supposed to be and not so much with me talking about boring stuff and posting up work i like.

productive monday

Mon, 28 Apr 2008 22:53:08 GMT

so .. i need to write up a ceramics diary for my journal, we have now put the 'dildo's' in to be fired with the glaze. all that is left is making the lazer trans and baking them. We even have the packaging nearly sorted. Spray glazing them was pretty crazy. i sort of really like it.. all that power.. oooo..its liek excersize. we call it 'ceramersizing' its exciting.
As well as this i have booked my hostel for bjork on thursday.. not work related but worth mentioning... i have nearly finished designing the layout for the digital version of my book. so i can send that off by the end of the week. And i've got page one and two ready for screen printing tomorrow.
On top of all the above i just got a phone call saying i have a trial shift at Bar Story tomorrow. At last. all is fairly good,well at least vaguely in order. .. um other college related news... i have all systems ready and go to print this live journal off.. get doodling and ammending and then photocopying before binding to create this bloody journal. I am actually really looking forward to getting all my notes,bits and pieces of research and mainly thoughts together in one document. I have much to justify,explain and talk about still though i must say. hoopla!

ohyeahstudio.no is Christina Magnussen/Hans Chr Øren... i rather love it. when did this change happen in me,when did i grow to love digital work.. i didnt even notice it happening. hm. this stuff is pretty.

agralan/chelsea flower show

Thu, 10 Apr 2008 18:24:34 GMT

they are going to print tomorrow. Will be available at the chelsea flower show as an edition of fifty of each. will also be available through agralan(agralan.co.uk) and me afterward. im so looking forward to all the flowers and crazy crazy gardens! i am also slightly freaked as to how these turned out. i dont know if anyone else has ever approached a commision with all good intetions then produced work that just feels that much removed from your usual working style. if that makes sense. anyway thats sort of how i feel about these. These are also my own crappy scans not the decent ones which are being done at the printers

i also have been thinking about a big ongoing project for when i graduate. a friend of mine runs this kids publishing house i may be getting some little bits of work for. it got me to thinking seriously about kids ilustration. somehting i havent thought about for a few years. and to this grand project i may do. i will call it ' a grand collection of different things-in english french and spanish' the aim being to make lots of drawings which will eventually be made into a book. each double spread having a theme and just choccking it full of stuff naming each thing in english spanish and french. i had a book very similar when i was a kid and i loved it so much. but with this i would like to make it adult friendly too. and make the stuff a lot more random. a page of stationary,a page of english food,a page of chinese food,a page of american food,a page of owls,a page of chairs,a page of famous i dont know,architects through history or something like that. and so on and so on.i feel it wil be fun.

goddddd

Tue, 08 Apr 2008 14:48:55 GMT

its crappy when things really dont work out for several days in a row. im spoilt maybe. but its driving me mad. small things like scanners not working,keyboard of mac breaking,needing more thread but not being able to buy it. thinking about all the costs im goign to have for my degree show and how i cant afford them in any way shape or form. that sort of thing.you know. i shouldnt be blabbering i shoudl be working,continously but that makes you slightly crazy after a while,as is evident here.. phew. i have this feeling my degree show might be a shambles.the strange thing is im not sure if i care that much. oh dear.

Thu, 27 Mar 2008 16:52:13 GMT

chilling at home drinking tea,drawing,painting,reading in the garden and that sort of thing. i just want my own little house to do this in,just simple things from life would be really nice. this is really boring i know but i just thought it should be said. i am getting bored of being sat down today though. and i really want the seaside. think im a bit old before my time.
