Satanic Architecture 2008-12-23 20:29:33 Few of us in society consider how much the architectural environment around us can affect us, and especially how deeply. Many years ago, when Christina, my partner, was completing her English Literature degree at Canterbury University, I had finished my Arts Degree a year earlier, I used to take the bus down town and meet [...] Read more:Architecture

No matter what you believe or don’t believe, no matter where you live, you can’t get away from it, and it’s here again. Even if you don’t want it to be. It’s that pagan winter festival conceived in order to cheer folk up in [...]
Suburban Surrealism 2008-12-19 16:30:02 Ordinary life can be less than ordinary when viewed at the precise angle, at the precise time, in a particular mood with a particular intent. I must admit I am not the greatest advocate for photography, I have limited experience of the medium, mainly from my college days, snapping the homeless and squatters by the [...] Read more:Suburban
Bill and Ben by Paul Baines 2008-12-19 10:14:15 Bill and Ben (44" x 55") by Paul Baines is the seventh limited edition print in the Indoor Street Art series available here.

Creativity & The Logistics of Insanity 2008-12-16 17:02:33 As a former boss of a veiled religious cult once told me, as I sat in a Bristol warehouse in the early 90s, piecing together cheap and gaudy crystal jewellery for a gullible New Age catalogue company, "Paul… Ideas are cheap". Until now I had never fully comprehended the far reaching scope of that short [...] Read more:Creativity
The Theatre of Indifference 2008-12-09 04:12:55 Some say any publicity is better than no publicity. I wouldn’t necessarily concur, but I will say this, one doesn’t make friends without making enemies, for one cannot break the stagnant waters of mundanity without making waves. Assumption and presumption seem to be the order of the day these days, for many the Internet has [...]
Life Before Banksy - Blek Le Rat 2008-12-04 23:38:29 Let’s start at the beginning, when Banksy was hardly out of primary school, a guy called Blek Le Rat was already busy creating stencil art, so please, if you do have a copy of Banksy’s book "Wall and Piece" and you’ve read his explanation of how he first thought of using stencils, then find the [...]
Time Travel Through The Cathode Ray 2008-12-03 03:21:42 I’ve realised recently how dull my dreams have become, I usually dream lucidly however recently I’ve started waking up the moment I start to change the parameters of the narrative or simply my location, it’s most probably stress, something I felt I’d had a grip on over the past year or two. I could [...] Read more:Time Travel

Art Has An Enemy 2008-12-01 00:47:15 It’s true, art does have an enemy, and strangely enough it’s the system that promotes and sells it. Without artists without art, without the creative and inquiring minds that produce visual media to inspire, cajole, infuriate and enrage the public, the "art market" would collapse. Fortunately for critics, dealers, galleries, and all the unscrupulous intermediaries that [.. Read more:Enemy
Souled Out 2008-11-30 00:56:38 So what mental morsels do I have in store for you today? Yes as usual it’s past 5am in the morning and I’m feeling adequately delirious enough to attempt to engage the public once more.
The truth is I don’t get out much… well to tell the brutal truth almost never, not unless I have a [...]
