Tom Vek: Aroused
Director: Saam Farahmand
Producer: James Waters
Choreography: Jennifer White & Leah Mckesy
Editor: Tom Lindsay
Hair & Make Up: Dorita Nissen
Director of photography: Will Bex
Styling: Nova Dando
Tom Vek - "It's a nod to the way in which smoking is used heavily and quite innocently in art and fashion," says the indie music anti-hero. "In the video, it represents feelings of being overwhelmed and extremities—both of which tie in with the sentiment of the album."
Smoking is cool?
Awesome video. Blonde girl with the fringe, Allie Epps, a fellow Chelsea arts clubber.
Temper Trap - Love Lost:
Very representational of English P.E. Lessons.

Pink Chihuahua
A drawing by my friend, the amazing, CJ BURNETT, of a pink chihuahua, to be used as the identity for a mexican cocktail bar in soho. The trace was what we worked with to make a few designs, below you can see the 'psychedelic version'.. the final image used will most likely be the dog's head with a black background. Many hours of backbreaking work spent in front of Photoshop and Illustrator. Good fun in the end and many free cocktails as a reward.

A love letter for you
I saw this project among other impressive new design / inventions at the Brit Insurance design awards at The Design Museum.
"Love Letter is a project by Stephen Powers with the City of Philadelphia Mural Arts Program and is sponsored by the Pew Center for Arts & Heritage through the Philadelphia Exhibitions Initiative."
Stephen Powers used to be a prolific tagger and graffiti artist (under the name ESPO) in Philadelphia and New York in the 90s, his work blurring the lines between legal and illegal. In 2000 he gave up to become a proper artist, and later in the decade he began Love letter, for which ESPO and his crew painted more than 50 murals along the elevated train along Market Street in West Philadelphia.
The book and a slideshow of the images was on display in the museum. Here are some of the murals.
