badge victim.

Some badges I've made the last few weeks here and there when i get bored.
Soon to be many more, and organised into sets.
Im in the process of designing a website and getting ready to sell at markets and some boutique clothing stores.
Any requests?

blow, blow, thou winter wind

It seems it isn't getting any warmer, but its a great time for some fun pictures.
These are some location stills i took for the short film 'Corvus' I am production designer for.
In the lovely small town of Dumbalk, south-east of Melbourne, will be our home for a week while we shoot. It's very cold, its very wet, but home to the most welcoming family in the southern hemisphere; I'm sure of it.
Located on private land, here is their serene backyard.


A girl can dream.

I'm cold now.. warm up with me to this fine tune. i heart it.

The Golden Filter - Solid Gold

you cant avoid the polaroid.

June 2008 saw the end of instant film production.
While factory doors closed in Mexico and the Netherlands many a Polaroid junkie attacked the world of ebay to scoop up the last off the assembly line. While the lovely lomos continue to keep the analogue film world alive, The Impossible Project seeks to revolutionise and reinvent the art of instant film.
Among the walls of the old Polaroid factories on their once clockwork machines, the race is on to produce a new material that can be used by 2010. The plan is to make film that will be fully functional with old-school Polaroid cameras and products.

All the machines are still fully connected and operational and to setup such a unique and highly specialised setup today would cost approx. 100 million EUR. Complete with 11 of the world's best bald (no really!) engineers and developers they will research and develop a new solution to replace or upgrade problematic and expensive components so it's more el cheapo for us!

join the countdown.

the hippie unleashes.

I cant seem to turf something that isn't broken or could be used for something else.
Vinylux has the same idea. They use old records and sleeves to reinvent their products such as; bowls, notebooks, coasters etc.
100% wind-powered, Know your product on High st Northcote, is another shop I like for this purpose. Somewhat like a trading post but in a store, they have a heap of old furniture and nick nacks for your house as well as little kooky post-war trinkets.





This what Wikipedia named my band.

Violinst and double bass, a must.

Our house of cards..

Patience has grown fondly of us.
Decades as one has drawn us so tightly.
A love stronger than the force we thought
could cause this house of cards to tumble.

You were one always ahead of the pack,
All you ever needed was in your hands,
No matter what you were dealt,
You always had one up your sleave.

Our life was once shuffled into a full house,
Hearts and diamonds, our children so dear.
Smiles were only the beginning of what we shared.
With you I never did fear.

Like all games ours had to end,
Not with celebration I’m afraid.
But I’m afraid.
Alone I am now, cards sprawled over this table.

Scared I am to now know
how simple life holds together.
An equilibrium of life I have learnt,
that with calamity can come wisdom.


When life poses questions about fairness it can be hard to seek
positivity and optimism.
My grandma amazes me every day.
She loved my grandpa so much, and many years on I can still see her
eyes glisten when she speaks of him.

Inspired by her I wrote this,
thinking about how hard life would be without
her great optimism and outlook on life.

For anyone who has lost something dear.
