Scared of the Ocean - Thalassophobia
work Tuesday 13th of July, 2010
A couple of weeks ago I posted this illustration, which I was hoping to develop as a full project. And that's exactly what happened — as the artwork for the debut album from Scared of the Ocean, a band from my home town of Milton Keynes. Plenty of pictures in the full article.

Mano a Bydo
work Thursday 8th of July, 2010
A quick remix of a vector illustration I did last year, for a blog post that I never finished.
On a related note: Dobkeratops is my favourite video game boss of all time. I think that was basically what I was trying to say in the blog post, although I had it padded out over about 1500 words. That, and that you should probably play an R-Type game in the next few days.

Observations on a month spent kind of holding the future
blog Monday 5th of July, 2010
“ I held an iPad in my hands today and it was kind of like holding the future. The future is expensive and has a glass front. ”
As far as first impressions go, these (by Gavin Logan on Friday's Geekest Drink) are pretty much on the money. It might seem a little late in the day to be writing up thoughts on a new device — after a month here and several in the States, some would perhaps feel that the topic is a little stale. But as many initial observations of the device seem to be based on shininess or pricetag, I thought it would be a good idea to hold off until I'd seen how it works in the real world for a non-trivial period of time.

Under the Water

A little bit of in-progress illustration work that may or may not be for a future project...
(On a slightly related note, who do I need to screw to get a dribbble invite?)

Digital: A Love Story
link Thursday 15th of April, 2010
As far as I'm concerned, it doesn't get much more romantic than this — a love story / thriller, set over the pre-web internet of the late eighties. Is it interactive fiction? Is it sort of a game? Is it like Uplink with a narrative and a bit of heart?

Flotilla
blog Thursday 15th of April, 2010
Breaking 'several months' of silence to review a weird little indie game — it's what blogs are for, apparently.

Old Maid Letterpress
link Monday 9th of November, 2009
“ The two opposing sides of the card represent the inner and outer character of a single person in two different forms. What is more desirable, inner or outer beauty? ”
Some beautiful letterpress Old Maid cards in this set.

Sketchbook I
work Thursday 20th of August, 2009
I don't draw enough any more. Broke out the graphics tablet this week — expect doodles.
