Party Going On





























9th and penultimate year of the Fancy Dress party.
Trying to keep the graphics odd and un-themed.

Steve Edge, Snellen Chart.


I met Steve Edge in the waiting room at Moorfields Eye hospital. He had catalysed an animated conversation between 7 or 8 total strangers. He in turn told me about Zach Smith (previous post). For more Steve see this video.














Zach Smith

This is exciting. More exciting than Rocket Mail.

Missile Mail































'Before man reaches the moon, mail will be delivered within hours from New York to California, to Britain, to India or Australia by guided missiles. We stand on the threshold of rocket mail.'

Apache Pilots




































Stills from Channel 4's pretty patriotic documentary about British forces fighting in Afghanistan.

It's London Design Week and it's been pretty busy, but very enjoyable. Above is the itinerary for Sunday, Monday and Tuesday (coloured blue, red and green respectively). It worked out as 83 miles driven in heavy traffic.

Moral Re-Armament

'The crisis is fundamentally a moral one. The nations must re-arm morally. Moral recovery is essentially the forerunner of economic recovery.'

This is from 1938. More here.

Riots, Tottenham











































Adidas trainers were definitely the most popular looted items. The police looked very tired.
Those are coat hangers all over the floor.
