    July – Other Worlds

    So I took a couple of days off to be in Sydney for this year’s Other Worlds Zine Fair. Now in their twelfth year, the tables are still packed and the crowds are still coming. This year the fair was installed in the Peter Forsyth Auditorium. Almost every year it’s been in the Marrickville Town…

    June – III

    A collab show by an ensemble named Melt, people visiting from out of town, the launch of Trust FM, a brief new lens day (more on that later), and using the flash when I see it as appropriate. Work sadly threw me on a project I know nothing about. I picked up my new zine…

    June – I

    Daylight is getting harder to find as winter and the cold finally set in. I finished my weekend in Sydney and return to work, with my main task anticipating a project, while also juggling another client. Outside of that, it’s another long weekend, comprised almost entirely of a camera at hand, with a simple photoshoot,…

    May – III

    I took a lot of photos this month, especially towards the end. There’s been a few duds. I went to Sydney for the long weekend, mostly to be in a bus, in a hotel room, catching up with some people, and flicking out some street photos. Also Vivid was on. Vivid only had a few…

    May – II

    A second post for May, on account that I’m trying not to blow out the load time for my posts. I’ve got a project or two on the back burner, simmering away and getting attention when I have a bit of spare time. With winter setting in, there’s a tight time for some golden hour…

    May – I

    I’m spinning in a chair waiting for new work. I bought two flashes, with one I have yet to play with. But flashes kind of require people and there hasn’t been a lot of that this month yet. I’ll be in Sydney soon, so I’ll dump all those shots in a separate post.

    Helio Press 10th Anniversary

    Megalo had a 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 focused 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

    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. Nat’s been a friend for a long time, but nowadays, she lives in Hobart. I took the opportunity to pick up a new lens and walk around town with it, while ticking…

  • February – Melbourne

    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…
