Lots and lots and lots of staples! Baptiste Debombourg has created these incredibly detailed artworks by using up to 35,000 staples. They are a series of two artworks entitled, ” Air Force One” and ” Air Force Two “.

Described on his site as “The protagonist Icarus, the Mannerism of the Renaissance and the symbol of sublime power Air Force One -the plane of the American President- are the main points in this work”. More really nice work on his site too.

Spent an afternoon at the V&A this week taking a look at the Decode: Digital Design Sensations exhibtion that is currently on.

Really reminiscent of the early experimental Macromedia Shockwave and Flash work that came out in the 90’s by the likes of Anti-Rom, Joshua Davies (Who exhibits), Tomato, Show Studio etc.

For me the best work was the Processing exhibits, even though it’s been around for a while I think it’s time is coming and it’s gonna really take off. Worth a visit to the V&A go take a look.

Have just spent quite a lot of time looking at these amazing Icelandic landscape photographs by Rupert Nightingale. Found them via the creative review blog they are absolutely captivating. Almost abstract in feel and quite illustrative, a couple of large format prints would be lovely!

After a successful two week stint at Excel last year, our auto bot was lost for months in a haze of interactive groupies and tech heads. He miraculously returned to us this week nearly a broken man and is now keeping guard at Harvest towers.

Already a firm favourite with clients who can’t keep their hands off him!

When you get just that little bit older (mid 30’s!) and house prices plus starting families influence your decision to move just out of London, you really do forget what you have on your doorstep. Spent valentines this year at Vinopolis on the South Bank trying to become a wine connoisseur but really only managed to get pretty drunk (I recommend you go).

Therefore I had to get my fix of Tate Modern. I am always pretty much blown away just by the scale of the building and become almost childlike with enthusiasm when I enter the great expanse of the main turbine hall. This really is the best art museum in the world in my opinion. 

The sheer scale of the main exhibitions coupled with the new Rothko room and the diversity of the other exhibitions really set this apart from anything else I have visited. When travelling I have mostly tried to marry up relaxing breaks with a bit of culture and have been lucky enough to visit galleries such as the Louvre, Pompidou, Guggenheim (New York), but the Tate still comes out on top every time.

If you live in London or have just come for a visit you simply can’t afford to miss this.
