New post in from my mate Amber, containing loads of bits and pieces from her recent trip to India all “bought from a kid outside the tomb of Tipu Sultan”, which sounds pretty cool to me. The package arrived today sent from Brighton yesterday and contains bookmarks, a keyring and some blank postcards.

In my opinion my REAL wall is not a place but a state of mind, and the whole philosophy of it is to interact with REAL people in REAL space again so, as a load of friends were round the package from Amber became a huge talking point and culminated in a social photoshoot for tonight.

Samurai slash gash grows larger and bleeds some mail art all over my underwear, and in response to the mail from botheyesclosed, clouds start gathering for the first of 40 days…

This shot has a profile pic in it of me illuminated in the bath and the lettering is done in light. I like the eerie effect of this particular take, although I done 3 shots tonight, so take a look at flickr to see the other results for yourself and decide which is best.

The shot was done in a completely darkened bathroom by selectively illuminating parts of the scene featuring REAL post using an LED pocket torch and a standard AA maglite, shone through a carboard tube to minimise halo.

The writing was done in the air using the LED torch

This was the second of the 3 takes done tonight and the whole shoot took about 2 hours, finished at 4:30am.
