BRAINSTORMING - Food For Thought



I'm all up for brainstorming, to create as many ideas or thoughts as possible. It is often a great way to get different
thoughts from different individuals in terms of sub-cultures etc. But how these are developed is the main thing, above
is a thought which I have always felt, but I never really knew how to express it or put it into words.

RICHE - Emma Löfström Private View





If you are out and about in Stockholm tonight, pop by the private view of illustrator Emma Lofstrom. Currently a
RCA student, the future looks bright for her and her sometimes twisted illustrations. I've known Emma for sometime
now, some of my fondest memories of her is from the early 00s, stood at bars giving East London lads pint races 
and winning every time. If you are coming tonight, challage her as I know she's out of practice these days ;-) 

Her work will be up and on display in Riche until the 21st of April 2009. She is represented by NU Agency.

Peter Saville turns his eye to safety on roads in this co-directed spot for Transport For London. Through M&C Saatchi.
Not known for moving image this is a great spot which is defiantly disruptive, even though it was made over a year ago.

WUW SIXTHSENCE - The Future, Coming Soon!

We've evolved over millions of years to sense the world around us. When we encounter something, someone or
some place, we use our five natural senses to perceive information about what is facing us. That information helps
us make decisions and chose the right actions to take in a situation. But arguably the most useful information that
can help us make the right decision is not naturally perceivable with our five senses, namely the data, information
and knowledge that mankind has accumulated about everything and which is increasingly all available online.
Moreover, Information is confined traditionally on paper or digitally on a screen. 'WUW' attempts to free information
from its confines and releases it into the world, seamlessly integrating it with the physical world.




Our behaviour and how we interact in the world around us is changing everyday, if you like this type of thing also check this...

ANDREAS GURSKY - Exhibition



Today I caught the Andreas Gursky exhibition at the Moderna Museet, Stockholm. Having been fascinated by his
images for well over a decade it was great to finally see many of his pieces up close and in a large format.
Gursky is well know for his photography reaching record prices and breaking the boundaries between art and
photography. In 2007, his print 99 Cent II, Diptych, took the record for highest price paid at auction for a single
photographic image. Sold for GBP 1.7 million (USD $3.3 million) at Sotheby's, London. And why not I say!

STANLEY KUBRICK - R.I.P.

It's 10 years to the day since the late great Stanley Kubrick passed :-( There will never be a filmmaker who has the 
same level of craft or vision he held. I so wish he had be able to live to make his A.I. project instead of Spielberg.



And below another maverick creative, Brain Eno talking about the very underrated Kubrick film - Barry Lyndon...
