Helio Press 10th Anniversary
Megalo had an show opening last week to celebrate Helio Press’ tenth anniversary, with Helio Press: Ten Trips Around The Sun. Helio Press is a small Melbourne-based studio focus around Risograph printing. Risograph is a machine whose parents might be a photocopier and a screen printing table. Original work is scanned in, but instead of…

Weekend in Melbourne
I was invited some months ago to Nat’s birthday bash which happened a couple of weeks ago (as of writing this) in Melbourne. Nap’s been a friend for a long time, but nowadays, she live in Hobart. I took the opportunity to pick up a new lens and walk around town with it, while ticking…

February – Melbourne
So I had a long weekend to take a short break from the tedium of my job, go to Melbourne and table at the Festival of the Photocopier. Going to FOTP has become an annual trip, where I’ve been tabling other people’s zines as part of Canberra Zine Emporium, along with my own. My friend…

Within Without
Since about April this year, Within without, the James Turrell skyspace has been undergoing repairs and a refresh. It opened up again in late October. So I was eager to take some snaps over its re-opening weekend.

October
Things are starting to wind down for the year, projects are basically done. The first thing to do was head to Hobart for the Small Press Zine Fair. I didn’t get a chance to take many photos, since I was solo at the table. The rest of the weekend was spent walking around the city,…

Killing of Canberra
The other weekend there was a graffiti jam, apparently organised by amuck37 (I don’t have insta, so I’ve been walled off), with dozens of other Australian artists to repaint most of the Woden Drains, which is about five hundred metres of concrete walls I managed to take some snaps while they were working and get…

June
It’s cold, which I enjoy, but my hands don’t. The work project is accelerating towards its final date. This month saw me walking around with the GFX all month, since I bought a new lens, a GF30mm f3.5. I rarely buy secondhand, but it’s worked out okay so far. I’ve looking forward to working on…
