Post your secrets for the world to see.

I am doing alot of research for my dissertation on postcards at the moment. I found this blog along the way. I find it bizarre how people want to secretly share their secrets with the world. It's fascinating to look through what people want to share with the world. Have a nose.

Saw this and thought it was worth talking about! A nice take on a conventional object. More info here.


Creative use of Analogue.

Came across this guy on the 'It's nice that' website. I think it's a really cool way of using a set of 35mm frames, a lot of preparation involved with visually interesting results. See more at http://www.martinwilson.net/index.html


Awkwardness.

YouCanKingston is a project that aims to work with the community to bringing lasting health service benefits to the Cambridge Road Estate in Kingston. The project was hosted by ThinkPublic, they invited people from the Uniiverstiy to join them in there project. We were invloved with painting the logos for the campaign around the estate and doing questionnaires in and around the local area to get more people involved with the organisation. More photos of the project can be seen on the youcankingston flickr site or at: www.youcankingston.com

Our efforts were noticed by the local paper, The Surrey Comet. The article can be seen here:

Well dressed walking man.

Walking through town I saw these signs with added fancy clothing, very nice!


Carpeted Streets?

The local Carpet Cleaning company put all these carpets and rugs out on the surrounding pavement to dry out. It was just very odd to walk past!
