more pentax bliss..

After breaking the Uni scanner and having my negs stuck in it for a day or so, I finally got them back but haven't had time/bit apprehensive about using the scanner again. So here's a rubbish scan from my printer for now!


Here are the proper scans after they repaired the scanner! These are taken along the path beside the Thames that runs behind our complex. Oh and one of my lovely housemate Mimi + I on my birthday.

Vegan Yummm

While I don't normally post silly things like what I consume on this blog (yes I have a food blog too!) I just made this ridiculously delicious + easy dish the other night.

It is what I have been surviving on (happily) the past few days, not having much time to cook. Tofu Taco Salad, I'm hooked on you.

One Brilliant (Beings) Birthday

Happy birthday Mr. Oberst, you retardedly talented man.

Long Live Lethaby!

Today was the crit for the Lethaby project, so I had to haul in my heavy-as tiles to Uni. We were all dreading the feedback we were about to receive from our tutor, as she was rather blunt/borderline cut throat during the interim crits.

I found out she grew up in Canada (Montreal) and it was quite interesting to find out more about her life. Annyway, the crit went well for most of us and I was pleased that she dug my idea/outcome. Everyone had fantastic concepts/work. I am constantly reminded that I am surrounded by a very brilliant bunch.

Here are a few more pics of the tiles and some postcards I picked up from the school museum during the first week of my research.

Wish Book Completion

Ah the wish book. Here it is in all its painstaking glory!
So proud.



This is the exhibition space we designed:

And the advertising poster for our exhibition:

This is why I love beards.

Pretty self-explanatory. : )

Happy Times.

Revisiting my high school photography class days, I relearned how to develop my own black & white negatives the other day at Uni. I borrowed Emilia's holga and shot a roll of 120 for the specific purpose of processing them. I went a little crazy with the double exposure, seeing as how it was an easy option on that camera. This is how the negatives came out (these are just a quick scan on my printer so you won't get the full effect).

And here are the properly scanned versions:
