When I got my camera I was really taken by the night landscape setting, which keeps the aperture open for a few seconds. I started with taking pictures of the moon, and moving the camera to draw pictures with the light: I was intrigued by the smaller lights from the windows of the houses, and…

Waiter, waiter, there’s a Yoke in my Zoom…
So, the summer’s here. Three glorious months of not-much-to-do, which is one of the things that I CAN’T STAND (to keep ticking over at anything like a sane level I need at least three things I can chop and change between or I get…. tetchy). Plus I’ve come out of the HNC with a certain…

last words
I passed the assessment, whoo hoo! The exhibition went well, and the mutant behaved itself a lot better once i’d installed a cooling system. many jokes were made about my battery consumption. plus today the EV came in, so i was waiting around for a while with a dead DV tape – so had some fun;…

The original barrel was primed, sprayed satin black and then gloss red, giving it a deeper, cherry-red finish that made the whole look…

The mutoscope is shaping up and residing at my house after the college exodus – now it needs priming, but first some shots of mod roc layer two… certainly shaping up… although the viewer needs some filing/sanding. so far, so good… vix
‘ello muto…
right, effectively my final piece is due…. (drumroll…) wednesday. Ha ha ha ha ha ha haaaaaaaaaaaa. I’ve been cracking on with SkinFlick, which will be presented in a mutoscope (a.k.a a ‘What the Butler Saw’ machine). This is what they’re supposed to look like: So far, this is mine; the plan is to soak fabric…
