    Brisbane

    I recently spent time up in and around Brisbane catching up with friends and family. It was a crazy week of camping, mosquitos, idyllic island life, mad long cycling commutes, kayaki, protesting about kayaki, and dragging a kayak through low tide mangrove mud. It was also art galleries, decent food, obscenely warm days, board game…

  • Pop-Up Bicycle Trailer

    Two friends and zinesters, Jeremy and Elouise, are traveling around Victoria for a series of workshops and shows promoting the final Bizoo publication (which I mentioned a looong time ago here. While they are on the road you can see their next project, a Pop-Up Bicycle Trailer, which is basically a trailer that transforms into…

  • Newly Arrived

    So my mailbox had a number of things inside of it today. As usual, the post seems to be a dumping ground for unwanted mail. Normally, I receive a series of bank statements and, other non-descript letters with the cellophane windows. Today I received two letters addressed to the Portrait Gallery. Not addressed to the…

  • Flight Out

    I may as well get writing while the whiskey begins to kick in. This afternoon, I stuck Jeremy on a plane back to his home up north. Its been an interesting and fun week while he was around to help out with the move. I took the time out to show him around the quiet…

    My head is in a strange place. Friday night. Last time I paid any attention to anything it was day. The sun was high in the air. But now every football (read: AFL or NRL) geezer is out, the game is over and they are looking for a piss up and maybe a fight. Meanwhile,…

  • Papercuts and Wine

    In September, I’ll be heading north for the Papercuts Collective Zine Launch to meet up with friends and family and generally take a break. The zine launch will feature three zines from BeardedHobo (who has recently returned from Japan), Bianca Valentino (who I mentioned previously) and Matt Limmer (who I have never met). A portion…

  • From the Inbox

    Today I get told that I should be checking up post box. This is what I find: It’s my advance copy of Staples Whenever I See A Bearded Hobo On The Street, I’ll Think Of You And Smile. The other copy is for Ve who regularly attends my knife fighting circle. I am really looking…

  • Postcard Photo

    This is me. Sort of. This is all in aid of contributing to Dr Jerm’s zine. It’s two-thirty a.m. I got things done tonight. Now it’s time to dream. And plot. Good Night.
