A quick half hour on the photocopier today using the @nationaltheatre January 1980 programme (courtesy of @oliverwoodsphoto ) summoned up a rather spectral image of the seating plan for the Olivier Theatre (so spectral in fact that the seat prices - which will make you CRY with nostalgia - have disappeared into the analogue/digital fog). Anyway a bit of jiggery-pokery and it’s transformed into this little visual ditty.

Brutalist enthusiasts! I snapped a couple of pics of the Trellick Tower while walking in west London last week, and I’ve used them in today’s photocopier workout. #goldfinger

Looks like @transportforlondon have started putting up signs naming various shades of green.

Some bits of a print I’ve been working on. It’s gone from Fresco on the iPad to Photoshop to the photocopier (several times) to Photoshop (again) then to Illustrator, and I haven’t even got to the part where I crochet it with leeks or something. Now THAT’S an ‘artistic process’, fact fans! #art #process #adobefresco #photoshop #illustrator #photocopy #photocopier #photocopyart #flowers #floralart #floral #botanical #botanicalart #flora #printmaking #silkscreen #retrosupplyco #truegrittexturesupply #adobe (at London, United Kingdom)

Today’s jiggery-pokery. Saw a squashed Mc-You-Know-Who bag a-blowin’ in the wind. Photographed it, messed around with the photographs & etc. Creativity versus cholesterol. #packaging #packagingdesign #typography #lettering #foundart #logo #logodesigns #printing #printmaking #art #sketch #sketchbook #experimentation #artistsoninstagram (at London, United Kingdom)

Might make a print of this or similar. A title card from ‘Forchettes Contre L’Ennui’ directed by Jean-Paul Sartre. It’s the old story of “boy meets girl; gitanes-gitanes-gitanes; revolution”, but utterly compelling and with a great score by John Cage on the harpsiwhatnot.

Ah, punk rock. In 1977 you could form a band, write a song, do a gig and split up live on stage all in the space of a single week. This poster celebrates those, er, wonderful days. It’s available NOW on the Standard Designs website & Etsy shop - BUT MAYBE NOT FOR LONG!!!!!
