Video!

After supplying the BBC with a little sample of what I mean by how I lay out the marks in my typewriter art, I thought I might aswell upload this little sample to the web, and make more little videos.  So here is the first. 

Thanks to Maya for holding the camera and making it work whilst I typed.  I could'nt have done it without you.  Especially as my camera is about to die once and for all.

Back to Bradleys today 3-6ish...ish, ish

Back to Bradley's bar on Hanway Street today to continue my studies of its fascinating interior...whilst soaking up the atmosphere  and translating that into type.

 I love how long the vinyl jukebox must've been there for just like the rest of  the decor, that those things remain (i'm sure its not purely for the money it rakes in), patient and solid whilst everything else  moves about ,  its like we borrow some of their timeless (...or, 1960's) charm for the evening when we go there.  

How comfortable this place makes us (me) feel, especially against the contrasting ever-refurbishing surroundings of central London.   

Type you soon Bradley's...

LIVE! last TYPORTRAIT - Selfridges, Oxford Street - FRI 24th FEB

Really excited about the final Live Typortrait tomorrow.  I have a fascinating subject both musically and  visually who'll be playing from 6ish - 7pm.  Can't wait to see what he makes me type!

More typing on the South Bank - from 3ish til sundown Sunday

I'll be continuing my study of a view of St.Pauls Cathedral, from the famous book stalls under Waterloo Bridge, outside the BFI, with a seller called Guy who kindly lent me the use of his table and chair!  I'm doing special Valentine's hearts that can be personalised (shh £10 each!) so come and get one for your sweetheart!
