I was shopping with Brian in Morrisons when I noticed how bitter I had become. I turned to him and said “I hate cake”. It’s offical: I’m suffering from some form of bitterness that has subsumed my soul. This state is not unusual for me though; however, I think I’m going to have to say [...]

weareten from Earle Martin on Vimeo. As you read this, I’ll be flying to Berlin for the annual New Media bash, Transmediale. I’m not that interested in the actual main event, which although having some interesting content, is far too reliant upon art institutions sending out curators and other organisers in the hope that they’ll [...]

Part two of some, which seem to be slightly rambly. Oh well. Better out than in. Before I get going here, let’s just take a minute out to think about the image creators of the world. I’m not talking about painters, or any other type of specific mileau, but rather just the general act of [...]

Part one of some, in which you can read me espousing in a generalised year-end type way. The other day, a very clever man explained to me about careers and learning curves. He was saying that every two years we complete another learning curve, take a look around at the career we’ve been having, and [...]

Now that we’ve shaken off the annoyances of changing themes, let’s talk fun stuff. The video above is such a classic piece of mid-1990′s footage.

Today I ran the first course I’ve done by myself (having had far superior teachers to hide behind in my previous sessions). They’ve all been graciously hosted by Newcastle’s Polytechnic, and I’ll be posting up links to their excellent websites as [...]

So; remember this? Turns out I almost broke my knee over the summer. I was a few degrees off snapping the bone, but I managed to bounce at the right point and ended up with a very long recuperation period. I’ve got a bunch of physio exercises that I need to do every day, which [...]

I often seem to myself like some sort of internet-appliance-made-flesh. And this month, we have the phone bill to prove it, with a massive overcharge for 47gb of ‘excess internet usage’. Thanks, BT! I love you too! However, after my last post I managed to climb out of my stained office chair, throw on some [...]

I’ve written a two-page long description of a street in my hometown. Here is the start: In summer, the street becomes a long, dusty trial of your patience. Wide and loud with traffic at one end, narrow and stuffed with closed shops at the other, it’s middle section goes on for the longest period with [...]
