My Mum is always giving me funny ideas to work on, little bits of inspiration, just her take on things I think.
I saw her recently and she said she saw this packaging in a shop and “thought of you” kind of thing.
The funny thing is that Stoned Apricots are the ones with stones in, not [...]
I released 3 USB memory sticks as part of my Blogcrossing project, and as far as I can tell they’ve all gone cold, dead, are no longer being used. So, failure.
Bugger!
If at first you don’t….
While “researching” my Hollyoaks concept I came across a similar idea, but simply supplementing Hollyoaks for Hypercondria.
Again, like the soap operas, I suffer from this terribly. Horrendously in fact. And so do many of my peers. I think it will work well!
I think the Hypercondria, Hollyoaks and Commuters are all good ideas. Maybe the three [...]
Recently Chinese artist Feng Feng (pictured) made a return visit to our University after some of our tutors visited China last year.
It was a really nice change to get a completely different approach to leading a lecture and its delivery. I was the first time I’ve attended a lecture that was conducted in its entirety [...]
I’ve charged myself with setting up a Wiki site for Interactive Arts at MMU. For sometime the course has had a forum online but in the last two years its usage has bottomed out and it is rarely used by anybody, which has rendered it basically useless.
Initially – spurred on by my own admiration for [...]
Urgh. The morning after. I won’t be going near Jameson in a while!
I attended a Jameson Whisky promo event at the new Trof bar yesterday – I think they’re simply calling it “The Deaf Institute”. There’s apparently been some “hoo-har” about the name of the place. Somewhat shamelessly Trof management wanted to call the place [...]
It happened ages ago, of course, but excellent none the less! :o)
I wondered how long it would take.

I laid my first ever geocache yesterday in Platt Fields park, Manchester. Hurray!
Geocaching is a kind of game, where “cachers” hide small containers which contain a logbook and a prize of some description. Anyone can go and hunt the cache – and take the prize – by logging onto the geocaching website (http://geocaching.com/) and obtaining [...]
I’m quite a sucker for TV soap operas. At the time of writing my only two serious addictions are Neighbours and Hollyoaks. One of the strangest things when dealing with a soap addiction is the oddity that normally the lower the quality the more enjoyment that is derived from it.
I massively relish the abysmal acting, [...]
I’m currently working with my friend Toby Izod – in fact he is the oldest friend I have! – his aim is to set up some kind of record label. Quite a challenge indeed. It is in its very early stages but I think its a promising concept.
I think the idea comes around Toby’s hardware [...]
