I have too many interests and extra curriculars to concentrate solely on one. So this place unites them all.
I am pretty much the luckiest person to be working with excellent dudes like Molly Naylor, Byron Vincent, Kate Yedigaroff, Matthew Austin and Joe Roberts on Made Up. Follow the project on our website as it progresses until the final event on Sunday 10th June at BOV.
This is an incredibly exciting offering from the ever-brilliant Riviere gang.

The Middle Ones’ new album Slow and Steady will be released on the 6th June! You can pre-order it from stitch-stitch or Discount Horse. You can also listen to a preview track A Year Without Regret on our bandcamp. The wonderful Emma Brook marbled the beautiful artwork and I put it together.
We are a band. We are playing at the Mayfest opening party this Thursday 17th May, 9pm at Bristol Old Vic. You can like us on facebook. Recordings coming soon.
Often and Mistakes are happy to announce the approaching release of the new book by co-editor Rose Robbins!

Maurice Sendak had an incredible brain. The video above is very important to me, and I discovered this conversation between himself and Spike Jonze today.
‘artists have to take a dive, and either you hit your head on a rock and you split your skull and you die, or that blow to the head is so inspiring that you come back up and do the best work you ever did.’

I am submitting my very old drawings above to an exhibition at Cafe Kino, collated by Henry Ireland. He is this year’s resident artist there, and quite brilliant he is too. The exhibition will be hung this weekend. You should make it along to his event on Saturday night.
I started a new band with the incredible Pete Shadbolt and the hit-machine Matthew Cheney. I get to sing and dance about. We are called EXPENSIVE. We are going to be famous.
First we’re going to play at Cafe Kino for Aaron’s leaving party on Friday 4th May.
Thanks to Rose Robbins for the brilliant unofficial promo above.
I designed The Cube April 2012 programme. I am hella proud of it. I wish it had printed about 3mm higher, then I would be ecstatic. However, it is good.
I took photos around the Cube building to use as backgrounds for each page. I did this as a reference to Aaron’s cube programme which included watercolours of different bits of the building. It is timed as a homage to the man. Long may he make us vlogs from Japan.

Eve and Grace from The Middle Ones leading us in a merry rendition of When Doves Cry by Prince, feat. Basith Uddin (heavily).
