WORK// Parklife Sydney - Lady Soveriegn

Another Parklife episode. Again filming with my comrade in festival frolicking Ant McPhail and our trusty producer in the field Alex, we took on Sov. First impressions were that the Lady was going to be a challenge but in the end..... she was a fudging great gal, i would have a Sambuca with her any day! In total there were 4 artist we interviewed and filmed over 2 days. Will post the next two soon. Massive thanks again to Ant for the final ensemble.

PLAY// A Fall of Lamb

In January this year i took part in an exhibition put together by the Noun Collective 'A Murder of Crows' illustrated collective nouns by a sketch of artists. It began by meeting up with a group of friends i had worked with all of us wanting a creative outlet outside of our work So the wonderful Mim & Jules took the reins and developed the means for us to express ourselves through animal collective nouns. The word spread.... the collective grew & the exhibition was a fudging awesome explosion of interpretations and mediums. Thankyou to all our friends that came and supported the display. Below is my work that was painted for the exhibition 'A Fall of Lamb', Jan 2009, oil on canvas

REVIEW// Cloud Control

Last nights Cloud Control gig at the Annandale was fudging great. It was one of those shows that draws together a happy crowd, it was a massive love-fest..... nothing seedy it was as though everyone was breathing in the verve, especially the beat loving gentleman in the front row. I am not going to pretend i know a great deal about music, but i do know that i like this collective of three males and one finely frocked female. I would compare some of their songs to the likes of Belle & Sebastien..... their tracks are quite diverse so don't take that as a definitive description. Listen for yourself & support a fudging great sydney act.

WORK// Parklife Sydney - The Cool Kids

Worked with Ant Mcphail to film this puppy for oyster vision. Was lucky enough to be wielding a canon 5D over two days festival filming. Ant patiently sifted through hours of footage we had shot and creatively finished these with his data moshing madness.

FFFIND// Cloud Control

For anyone after some good music this weekend i HIGHLY recommend Cloud Control They play at The Annandale this Friday night 20th November from 7pm. Or alternatively there is an all ages gig on Saturday 21st November from 11:45am. If you want to wet your whistle with their fudging awesome sound then check out the clip to their latest release directed by my fine feathered friend Sam Ferris Bryant. His mind would be an scary place to get lost in.

PLAY// Diana made me do it

Every year i am privileged enough to help out the lovely Lady Glamourpuss survive the frenzied fifties festival at the beautiful Rose Seidler House. This year she hooked me up with 'Mr Pink' the wonderful Diana F+ lomography camera. The festival is a fun-tastic time warping event, definitely one to put in your diary for next august
