Semi Permanent book 2010 (2nd edition) is in my happy hands! Super, super stoked that my ‘Monster Tour’ illustration was selected to be in there
Was very exciting to be flicking through the beautiful (hard back!) book and seeing it looking out in all it’s grumpy monster glory.
As always the semi-permanent book is filled to the bindings with superb works from all around the world, a feast for the eyes and mind. Head on over to the Design is Kinky shop to get hold of past issues and look out for the release of the 2010 book 2 above when they do a reprint (they ran out at the semi-perm nz event!)
Semi-Permanent 2010 ! Yes I was there….thus giving me a proper reason for the late pic this week, or rather last week
The photo above is of the big screen at the superb New Zealand leg of the great Semi Permanent design event. The image itself was orchestrated live by none other than the legendary Storm Thorgeson (if you don’t know the name check the link and see that you definitely know his amazing work!). It took a couple of attempts to create the piece that was simply entitled “4D Fuck Avatar”. A small example of Storm’s fine British humour and his willingness to express his thoughts on the way things are. Great stuff
And yep if you look close you can even spot me in the crowd, haha! (pic is also up on my Facebook if you want to tag yourself on there)

To break with the last couple weeks tradition…this one’s on time!
Stoked to find out the new board graphics I did for Carbon Art boards got featured in the latest Windsurf (UK) magazine! If you missed it I did a post before showing the new 2010 illustrations and designs I created which you can check out here.
If you’re wondering why it says ‘Recycled Carbon Art’ it’s due to the use of a great new fibre in the boards called Innegra – it’s made using a green factory process.
Apparently the new waveboards also got a show off in the latest Boards mag too…just trying to track down a copy here in NZ so I can have a look!
Mello yello say hello! This little guy can be found in a store not far from me
Wow it’s half way through the year already since I started posting Fav Friday photo’s!
