Megan

I’m old skool, so I like gifs – Especially Megan Fox gifs.

I stole it from an emo who’s got a girlcrush on the fox – and because we have something in common I didn’t feel bad at all.

So steal it from me, you know you want to.

My friend Lucy

Mee + bungee

So on monday I woke up and decided – in NZ, do as… etc .

No, not sheep, “the Bungy” – fuck me if that wasn’t one of the better decisions I’ve made recently.

Starting with the it’s-not-very-far-but-it-is-onto-rocks lamo “the Ledge” in Queenstown – a mere 50m drop – all up about oh, 2.6 seconds of “what the fuck didi i just do I’m falling” but you get a run up and that makes all the difference – I mean if you’re gonna go – go hard right?

Not bad form If I must say for the first time I leapt into nothingness, sort of to my death, but not:

So that was pretty cool, but as you do, I wanted more.

So I booked in today at the Nevis, fuck me if it’s not a 134mtrs plunge toward no more than a swollen creek – more fear = more shit ur pants fear:

So then I did it again. Except this time the guys put me on the lower weight division which means I go further or if you will, closer to the swollen creek.

Like about 8mtrs away… roll footage:

I got “the shine”

Last thursday I hopped on a plane, landed in Auckland, got on another plane after a night there and landed in Queenstown.

Oh my god you should see the hills around here:

But there’s something in the air here and the lonely drive through the mountains reminded me a lot of the opening credits for Kubricks Shining:

and maybe I might have gone slightly insane when I saw the an ice-like dagger calling to me from the ferns:

Yup crazy. Now, imagine that I’m chasing said victim across a bridge with only one way off:

And you say “thats scary”?, well this afternoon…

…I bungee.

A teaser for what’s to come next.

Another lovely thing from the Japanese.

Names

Tobie — Sun, 07 Jun 2009 06:38:25 +0000

My name is Tobie. I was named after a girl.

This is her:

Her real name is Donna Mills, but in the movie Play Misty for Me, she was Tobie – the part time lady of hero Clint Eastwood and was the love interest Clint went back to after a lusty far affair.

The fan stalks him and it’s scary as hell… But hell, isn’t “our” Donna fit or what?

He she is again, as Tobie:

and – here’s the in-cinema preview:

Prints

Tobie — Fri, 05 Jun 2009 06:20:44 +0000

I’ve been busy – making AND collecting prints (more on that next week when i get them framed up nice).

Sitting all day in front of a 1280x screen, you’re arse gets sore, your eyes hurt and your brains going – “um, what’s wrong with the little scenario?” – quite a bit actually, all of it obvious, culminating in weekly visits to the Masseuse or Oesteopath.

We’ve all been there.

So, last year I set up in a studio over in North Melbourne and now it’s rolling sweet I get to go over there anytime I feel like it and print REAL & tangible things.

Here’s the latest batch out:

I call the Blue one “Boy”:

and the pink one “Girl” – and they come as a pair.

I’m testing a payment system if you wanna buy one:

And.. the week before I did a batch out as a welcome gift for new Blackfactory joiners.

Too much fun.
