Recently I collaborated with three people I don't even know, on a post-art project. This is what it looked like when I sent it off to the third person.

RE: COLLABORATION
This is the latest collaboration that I'm involved in, between mine and Al's promotions brand Fuck The White Board and 2 other promoters Snap Crackle and Pop and the Kool Kids Klub.
Every event that is put on is the result of a huge collaboration though, between not just the promoters but the venue, the artists, the management, the booking agent, the designers, the ticket companies, the bar managers, the security companies, the council and most importantly the customers.

COLLABORATION
This is a perfect example of collaboration between two people. In this case, designer Rob Matthews and Illustrator Tom Edwards.
“Tom gave drawings to Rob and Rob tried to make them into photographs.”
This is one double page from the zine (my favourite), the rest can be seen at:

RE: ACCIDENT
I'm pretty lucky. No big accidents, but this is my earliest recollection of an unfortunate event. I was more upset that I got blood over my hand knitted teenage mutant ninja turtles jumper that nan made.

RE: ACCIDENT
No one wanted James. He was the result of some mishap; a ripped condom or potentless pill perhaps. Maybe James is the consequence of the most bold and cunning of sperm. A hero among it’s kind, an Odysseus struggling in the gush of semen and viscous insides.
RE: ACCIDENT
The worst accident I've had was to break my neck. 'Down the front' at Brixton Academy in 2001, a crowd-surfer landed in the top of my head, compacting three of my vertebrae and rendering me unconscious. I woke up with a catheter and no feeling in my arms and legs. But the worst bit was that it was a pop-punk gig. And this is the last thing I remember...

RE: FAVOURITE CHILDHOOD TOY
I still remember how I cut the hair of my first Barbie thinking that it would grow back. It didn't. She wasn't my favourite toy anymore.

RE: FAVOURITE CHILDHOOD TOY
I liked to carry my toys around with me. Not sure what that means on the friend front.

RE: FAVOURITE CHILDHOOD TOY
I didn't have one of these but I played it once at school when you could bring in games and then forever longed to call up guys named Zach, Brad and Jesse and find out if they liked me or not.

RE: FAVOURITE CHILDHOOD TOY
So fucking sick. The original is the ultimate one. Unfortunately i've lost trace of it now. Such as shame.
RE: FAVOURITE CHILDHOOD TOY
This was too good a post for me to choose just one of my favorite kids toys, so i decided to pull out my action figure squad from 1997. From top we have:
- Ripster the street shark (halfmanhalfshark mutants in khaki shorts and roller blades that fought an evil geneticists and his dinosaurs!)
- Captain Planet (A superhero that could be summoned by 5 hippyish kids using elemental rings when 'Gaia' was threatened. The toy used to have a piece of string that came out of the caps back so you could swing him around to simulate flight. This, at the time, was second only in techyness to an eagle eyes action man.)
- Vinnie the biker mouse from mars (Halfhumanhalfmouse aliens from mars that rode around on harleys. Vinnie was the lady killer of the gang which is why i thought he was the coolest... The bestial nature of his flirtations were never obvious to me.)
- Bucky O'Hare (My favorite toy at the age of 8. Definitely the sickest space rabbit ever to wrap their green paws around a laser shooter. Ironically apparently the series was cancelled when the toy manufacturer underestimated demand, the shops sold out and kids lost interest.)
I lost all these toys when we moved house in 99. This theme has been a painful voyage to yesteryear, but i think i may now have closure... (Besides when hunting for photos on tinternet I've found specialist retro toy stores and bought them all again.)
RE: FAVOURITE CHILDHOOD TOY
Ya this was my bear snuffles. not sure where the name came from but he was a Gund Bear. By the time of his death/retirement he was completely gray missing his nose and had several holes. I really loved the shit out of him. No Homo.
