    Vivid

    As things turned out for my trip to Sydney for two zines fairs, I also managed to catch the opening night of Vivid. Much like Enlighten, but on a different scale, projectors and other installations shone in the overcast night. It was something I would have spent more time on exploring the city, but there…

  • James Turrell Retrospective

    James Turrell Retrospective

    When I heard the James Turrell Retrospective, I hesitated to buy tickets. It was stupid, I know, but I needed to know about when contracts might be starting or ending, whether I was required to work or not. It was a matter of time and space. James Turrell is currently undertaking a massive piece of…

    In The Post

    So new orders are still slowly trickling in. I recently picked up the black Buddha Machine 5, because I like collections to be complete. There’s also a new parallel pen. I bought one some time ago (and now discover I posted about it on my tumblr. I have a habit of not talking about projects…

  • Enlighten 2015

    Enlighten 2015

    So last night, I caught up a friend down at Enlighten. We checked out the Night Noodle Markets, where we picked up some pork and chicken on sticks, dumplings and gyoza. The plan was to get some waffles on a stick, but there was a wait and the sun was setting. Overall, this year’s projects…

  • Art Junk

    Probably not the best title, but it’s late and I’m tired. So I’ve been busy of late, mostly with a calligraphy project. I decided late last year to attempt larger works, and while I’ve made some nice originals, I then decided to get them scanned and prepped for screen printing. And last year I met…

    Trip Log 7: Return

    It’s been a long flight. My trip ended a couple of days ago. We had returned the car, and the energy that carried along the coast of this country had eventually left us. We had three days left in Reykjavik, but Josh and I were just spending our time counting them out. I spent the…

  • Zinestars

    Zinestars

    So I spent part of my Saturday sitting in at the Tuggeranong Arts Centre, and ran with some sketching. It was arranged that I be there, for exactly what purpose, wasn’t entirely clear. Though I did meet a handful of people who wanted to kill a bit of time in the gallery. Zinestars is a…

  • Art, Not Apart

    Art, Not Apart

    It’s that time of year again. Art, Not Apart cranked up again to be taller and more widespread. Instead of the odd graffiti-slash-street artist given a place to spray, there was an entire artists’ alley and other pockets around the New Acton campus. Instead of being contained within the main area, the event even filled…

  • Birth of Rockin’ Jelly Bean

    I just received my limited edition copy of The Birth of Rockin’ Jelly Bean. The cover is pretty much NSFW, so I really can’t show the rest. I have been waiting for a Rockin’ Jelly Bean book for about three years ever since visiting one of his shops in Harajuku. So it’s really good to…
