Jane Austen ?

The £2 book shop on park street has a lot of paper bags with drawings of authors pinned up behind the till. They are done by local drawingists passing through. Even though I cheated by not doing mine there and then, it may not be the most accurate depiction. The words say Jane Austen but who is the picture of?

roller derby zine

A while back I helped do some fake adverts for Power Krauts zine. She was selling them at bouts organised by Bristol Roller Derby. There is one on sunday.  You could come along, or find your local roller derby and check it out if you haven't already.

I haven't posted for a long time. I haven't been doing chipfork type stuff so I've had nothing to post. I've been building 3d models instead. Anyway, calm air all ice are doing a show at room 212 in bristol. if you missed my stuff when it was at the sweet shoppe then you can catch some of it there. It looks like they are cramming a whole load of neat artist in there.

my giant sweet stuff for the shoppe

getting to the mythical beast sweet shoppe by foot

I thought this video would be a good way to show people how to get to the mythical beast sweet shoppe. I guess its not every day you accidentally make a blipvert. I just filmed as we walked the route from the train station to the shoppe the first day we were able to get inside. It was also when we met Lesley from the friends of the old pier society who are great, and have let us use the downstairs of their building.
The film wasn't meant to be animated but it came out too jerky to speed up nicely. So I went through and grabbed a frame every step. that was still quite jerky so I went through and lined up all the frames with the one before it. I'd like to thank Alk^Titan who let me use his music and even tweaked it a little to fit better. You can see he route on this MAP.
Theres more info and help on getting there on the sweet shoppe blog.

Setting up shoppe

We started to set up the shoppe today.Look out for cool stuff by Johanna, Katy and Camilla.





Here is mine on the gallery wall. You can get an idea of how big and bright they are but there better when your there. I've put more pictures on flickr for now if you want a better look. But i think its going to be worth coming down to the sea side to experience the whole thing with the art and the sweets in the little gallery by the side of the rusty Birnbeck pier.
