well

i just posted a very (barely) interesting bulletin which i feel needs sharing. immediately. then i'll give you all some lovely snippets of very interesting info you should heed with your golden eyes and ears. but first....


"if you like oompa loompas
listen to my profile song
it seriously reminds me of charlie's time in that chocolate factory
seriously

so happy!
but
my hair do's come out which is rather a sizeable shame, i did love it so
i suppose i'll do it again tomorrow
and take the hairspray out with me

but honestly
this MORNING
i hairsprayed my hair so it looked like how the singer in new young pony club used to have it and now chloe sevigny or whichever annoying model it is who has half their head shaved
(i stand corrected, lovely chani of house of it reminds me it is actually alice delaal, an equally annoyingly over-hyped piece of furniture. though i am sure miss layzell would disagree slightly)
anyway
it looked reminiscent of that
and then it's only just come out
if you want hairspray
get hold it by catwalk
no joke
1.there's loads of it in the bottle/spraycan/thing
2,.IT'S LIKE SPRAYABLE BLOODY CONCRETE
i fed my cat and not a single hair-sprayed strand of hair moved
not
one
folicle

wow that's a long bulletin
i'm off on a joyful crusade against boredom with a fairy wand, hairsprayey hair and a film called the illusionists
and of course
my supra boring book
this is amazing
when i nicked an art book from miss smith
i never knew this would sprout from the pages like a beautiful if slightly prit sticky flower

WAHEY
i really am leaving now
CIAO
leave me comments
i'm so close to 2000 it's unreal

department of eagles^^^

on mildly less self-indulgent shores, department of eagles released their second album earlier this month and my GOSH is it good.
yes. it's very good. very very good. but i won't go on about these guys too much as they've bagged themselves a charming little slot in november's edition, so you'll have to read that instead if you want to know more. or you could go on their website. personally, i'd read mine, but only because i doubt anyone else will. how depressing :(


'In Ear Park' was released on 7th oct. on 4AD records.

that was the shining section for your lovely ears, now for the similarly charming eyes.


his tetris project

guillaume reynold is a swiss bloke who is seriously, seriously cool. if you're a fan of those 'old skool' video games then hop over to youtube and czech him out NOW. not later, now!
his human stop-animation performances have gained him various awards, and there was a bzzzzz after him at Bellaurd, the French festival, that a full hive of bees would have been asking for from good old father christmas in less than 2 months time (!). he;s even taken to the skies in reincarnations of hasbro transformers, going nuts with a remote controlled blimp over 22 cars, buses, lorries and trains all driving together in open ground.
but even though he readily admits to not even liking console games let alone owning one as a child, he spent hours in his youth developing his very own games via his commodore-64 pc. he says the goal of his project is in fact not to create works for the internet but to “create images or animated videos by reassembling people who have no relationship with contemporary art.”, an intention that might just answer why most of his human pixels in his recreation of Pong are defiantly sitting and have been able to sit for nye-on 90 years a-piece.
his projects develop on popular culture, games, movies and legends “because almost everyone can identify something already known or seen. I don't need to explain the rules. For my TRANSFORMERS series, my goal was just to use the name as a generic term known by the world community that describes vehicles ‘transforming’ into robots.”
all his works are filmed during festivals, and he aims to involve the public, for example in the second of his transformers series he wanted to “honour and run together all the city services. 22 vehicles including firemen, police, roads, parks and gardens, ambulance, garbage were mobilised together with 40 people for 5 hours. it was shot and shown for the festival images'08 in vevey, switzerland.”
after quickly snapping an aerial shot with a small blimp, everybody disassembles again to start something completely new, maybe another robot, or face, or an accusing looking egg-plant, who knows?! but whatever he does, we know it'll be big. very big. very, very big. so keep your eye on satellite images over the next few months for anything... interesting!
