A few friends of mine are opening a set of studios in SE1. I spent the weekend snowboarding with the owners and the guys running the studios and they’re all very sound and talented peoples. About Studio 180 The Studio Studio 180 is a converted Georgian terrace containing five unique artists studios. Ideally situated in… Continue reading Studio 180

I’ve just read Scott Berkuns article about how “All ideas are made of other ideas. It was a short post, however I’d also seen his Keynote presentation on the same topic during the Web Directions Conference in London. It got me thinking, at 8am, and this is what I managed to get out of my… Continue reading Ideas are formed from other ideas

Today we had a client looking to represent some renovation work on a historic piece of pavement dating back to the 10th Century.

I’ve decided I’m tired of looking at Laura’s laptop with IE and seeing this site render like shit. To overcome this I’ve decided to get Virtual Box running on my Mac with at least IE 7 and IE 8 (which has been later dropped off to just running IE7). Unfortunately there is no ready made… Continue reading IE7 testing on Mac OSX with Virtual Box

fuck fuck FUCK! That was just plain embarrassing. Australia’s batting attack can’t muster 180 runs between them, while a cross eyed metro columnist can rack that up on his own. Lucky he’s not from SA. Which brings me to the busted tooth baldheaded beard wearing GIT Prior. I swear the sight of him irritates me… Continue reading England dominate Australia in 5th Ashes Test 2011

I thought this was a pretty funny way of looking at movies in Space and the pure rubbish that goes along with it. Surprisingly we’re missing a few well known space orientated movies including E.T and Star Trek, but at least they covered all of the Star Wars Movies. Here’s a better look at the… Continue reading Inaccurate Science Space Movies

Here is an awesome video put together by David Johnson. The whole thing was hand painted by Dave.
