10.3.09 - 19.3.09













Fire services themed night at oceana. Very messy night I didn't make it passed 1am cos i drunk a wee bit to much. I was happily drink away and feeling a little bit queasy and needed to pee so i went of to the toilets and when i got there i thought. "hmm i better go in to a cubical to be safe" walked in started pee and then it happened just as i finnished a projectile vomit in to the toilet paper holder in front of me which when it hit it caused it to rebound off and completely cover 3 walls of the cubical and just when i thought that was over it happened again.

I was feeling pretty haggard by this point so from what i remember I stumbled back inside and ended up sat in the corner on one of the seats just completely spaced out. I must of ben there for about 20mins when faye ran over to me to drag me to the over side to see a friend. As i finished stumbling over and said alright it happened again so faye drag me of upstairs to get some fresh air in the smoking area, but on the way i collapsed at the bottom of the stairs and wouldn't move so she had to try and get soem one to help her pick me up which know one did (thanks assholes).

Eventualy i got up and got up the stairs, so she sat me down in the corner next to a plant pot so the bouncers wouldn't see me and kick me out. I had been there for about 10mins and the others came up for a smoke and i was fine sitting there in my own world and then woops i ended up watering the plant several times (it was dead the week after) and that was when faye was when faye saved me and walked me downstairs and forced me to get a taxi back and paid for it for me cos i spent all my money. So i got back ome vomed a couple more times and passed out untill faye came back.

The best bit was that i was drinking red wine so my vom was red so it must of looked like a murder scene every where i was sick.

All in all twas a good night.





Dan's started a solo project this was his first gig at the alchmey bar it was a good night and lots of drinking happened and faye copyed my activities from above later on when we go back home. I'm doing some photoshoots for dan in the next couple weeks so keep your eyes open for the pics soon.

20.2.09 - 10.3.09

Another one coming soon. Only be a short one next time again cos I rinsed 22 photos of the film whilst I was drunk.



This is a shot of me and chris in the reflection of the windows at asda. We were in a lesson and went back to get my cameras and chris's holga camera so he could try a polo back in it which he borrowed of Christophe Dillinger who had come in to give us a talk on his work and experimental photography and give us a mini workshop on experimental photography(for more see blog).





Heavy mario kart session at faye's me and faye over the course of that weekend must of colectivly ranked up 24hrs of mario kart game play and both fully completed the game. ( i don't know what happend on the second picture its asda's shitty processing i think).





I seem to spend most of my time in the week in the library working my way through numerous photobooks and photocopying pictures for my projects. I do quite enjoy wasting hours apon hours looking at books though and i now have a massive list of books i want to buy. woops.





Couple photos from our alternitve processing lesson these are from when we did solvent transfers where you coat a photocopyed image with solvents and then roll them through on to another piece of paper to make a transfer (see blog for results) I really enjoy the affect from this.



Big printing session in the darkroom printing up fiber based photos of final images for projects spent many many days in here and most of them rushing to get final images done for deadlines.



Morning of assigment hand in and me and chris (and lynzo helping) are hard at work doing finishing touches to our work books and pressing our images to keep them flat (see machine top right) and doing finishing touches to the presentation of the images. The 4 images at the bottom are my final 4 images.



I sunk in to faye's lesson to distract her cos i finnished early.



The short cut from mine to faye's.



Faye dressing up as a fire fighter and getting ready to hit oceana for a night out. Keep checking back for the photos next time.
