The disposable memory project

Posted on twitter, I followed the link to 'the disposable memory project' where cameras have been sent out all over the world for anyone to take photos and send them back to the site. The results are really interesting to look through and find out where they've been.

Reading week.

Over reading week I took the opportunity to pop home for a little bit, being as I haven't been back since august. It was quite nice, had a day or so of doing nothing and did the usual visit family, get my hair cut.. (according the barber it had been over 3 months) have a bath, a roast, clean washing and collect some food. The typical student thing to do? On saturday before I came back, I went into nottingham and sampled some of its delights. This week has been the game-city festival, and they had Lego rock band on the main stage. It looked really fun, while watching you could play with lego at the tables in the tent. I made a Rocketcarship.. naturally.

That day the Designer/professional doodler Jon Burgerman of Nottingham had a sale in his studio to clear some space/move studio (im not 100% sure) and I picked up some gems! I got straight in but apparently people were queuing for an hour afterwards to get in.. I got a vinyl sticker..

Now happily on my mirror, such good quality and only £3! Should've took more moneys.

And this beaut! a Science skateboards x Jon Burgerman Deck. Ive looked everywhere for one and wanted one for literally years. A snip at £25 instead of the original £60

Yum. Hopefully he'll have another sale of remaining stock he has so I can pick up some more bargains.
