This Photograph is my Proof


American photographer Duane Michals is the best. He tells little stories with his photos that you can read, but only he knows what they are really about. Much like photography generally. Makes you wish you were somewhere else, or in love, or both. Not in a lame way.

Paris




Me, Doug and Luke ran away to Paris for the weekend during one of the busiest few weeks of our second year. Definitely was not the most well educated decision, but it was totally worth it. Oscar Wilde's grave is covered in kisses and the teenagers drink red wine on the bridges at night.

Garfield Minus Garfield




Amazingly bleak blog where some genius has removed Garfield from the strips leaving only a very very lonely man.

STOLEN




We were set a brief for an exhibition in the Paul Arden gallery in Petworth entitled 'Stolen'
I decided to steal something small from a charity shop and then try and repent my sin in as many ways as possible for the next few weeks. I volunteered in the charity shop i stole from, went around Kingston collecting a trolley full of things to donate, ran errands for friends and made my housemates beds in the morning. Not sure anyone could ever repent stealing from a charity shop fully, my mum certainly doesn't think so, but i tried.

errrrr too good too good too good

just another reason to believe that Spike Jonze is the best human ever.

Graphic Design Students/Incredible Dancers


Me and a lovely lad called Paul Bailey made this dance routine into a short film for GiffGaff (a new phone network) for a competition for the ad agency Albion. My friends Ben and Helen won the competition (fair and square) but we still love our video. We have yet to crack out the routine we learnt in a club, when we do Oceana Kingston won't know what hit it.




I read Philip Larkin a lot a lot, and now it's all online youtube has proved itself to be not just loads of funny animals and kids getting their legs cut off by walls. There is so much other good stuff like this, best bit about Down Cemetery road is not just John Betjeman and Philip Larkin smoking in Larkin's living room but the amazing BBC intro. Whole video makes Hull look a bit wank but i suppose we all knew that.
Aubade is probably the most terrifying poem ever written, hearing it read out by Philip Larkin with photos of graves just adds to it, well good.
