i have a folder on my hard drive called 'assorted cool shit off the net' that's filled with heaps of random, unknown images. last week a girl at work lent me a book on design, and i can now put a name to a few of these 'cool shit' things. This book was about a number of famous artists, all of whom i'd never heard of, but work i'd seen everywhere. i'm posting it here for my own reference so i don't forget it, but also as inspiration for anyone who wants to be a mad-dog.
I was at a mates place the other day who's studying fashion design. She had sketches all over her desk and it inspired me to draw some fashion. I also took inspiration from Seth. It is a graphic image, so don't click here if you're sensitive to a cock n balls.
Over the weekend, a few mates and myself made the trip up north to Woodford for Splendour in the Grass. I would have to say that the few days i spent there would have to come close to the best of my life. LCD soundsystem, Paul Kelly, Band of Horses all destroyed expectations. Another band that i wanted to check out, but didn't expect heaps from was Cloud Control, they would definitely have to be one of my favourite bands now. Other highlights included Foals, 2 door cinema club, hot chip, band of skulls, british india, Miike snow, Whitley, and of course the strokes. not one band i saw was a let down. so awesome.
