Duno whether I'll be incorporating this within my collections brief or not, but it's well nuts! Skin Bag 'anticipates the fusion between the digital and the organic'. Might be the rahh fashion next year?

Rolled out of bed saturday morning and had a wander with lots of others down to HMV. The anti-fascists were out in full force against the British People's Party and their views on 'black Hip Hop' so to speak. Got some nice photographs..

Check out the final AVisuals for my self written brief. More to come this year..

So after summer break I'm back in sunny Leeds for second year, having worked my tets off at Sainsbury's for 3 months solid to fund it! Mixed feelings right now; looking forward to catching up with everyone and goin out, but also knowing that this year will have a massive affect upon the direction I find myself heading in when I leave. Really want to try and push myself to do well, build on what I've enjoyed doing previously and learn skills that are gona be useful for times ahead. I want to work with briefs that will demand a professional approach and thought process, ultimately to try and gain as much 'live' experience as I can. The next two years, in sugar coated theory, will ultimately be the necessary preparation to open doors for a mint job in the big bad world. Sugar coated indeed!! We'll see how much I want that to become a reality over the next 21 months I guess. Here's a snapshot of my 'Collectors' research over the summer:

How Manga changed the world' - Urbis Centre. Really well presented, explored the art of Manga and its influence upon popular culture, including music, fashion, art, right through to the corporate sector.






Full Circle @ Upperspace. Sister project of Sketch City collective, this is the only designated Street Art gallery outside of Landan Taan, the same ethos revolving around inclusivity and promoting art as a positive form of expression.




The Conquest of Imperfection - Very interactive installations by Maskaki Fujihata detailing how new technologies redefine reality.
