ART MUST HAVE IMPACT,
BUT SADLY IMPACT CANT BE FORCED UPON ART.
THAT IS WHERE DESIGN SITS BACK AND RUBS ITS RUBBER GLOVED
GERM FREE HANDS.
I HAVE BEEN LYING AWAKE IN BED,
thinking about what I actually want to do with myself over the next few years. ( in a dreamlike almostfallingasleep kinda way)
I first of all thought about starting a magazine, and how i would go about that... i came up with something along the lines of a magazine for people fed up with the information age, I have always been intrigued by the idea of unlearning things, then reworking them into a format which suits you, (but meanwhile still retaining the truth) and then i thought about going in to do a masters, living in London, etc. but then i thought, hm, i need to work on a portfolio of amazing shit. - then i thought about how art has been such a big part of my life from day one, that i should really take it all the way and do a PHD, then i thought, "am i cut out for a PHD?" then i thought hell yes. THEN I THOUGHT.
I like that, "then i thought"
I reminisced back to my A-Level art daze, bright warm art room with Clouter and Hutton (my 2 art teachers) thought about how they operated, what they actually did for me, in terms of helping me develop as a budding artist, inspiration, technique, i suppose they were quite good in a way. I liked the buzz of my foundation course in Maidstone, it was exciting, and fast paced, with a good ratio of learning and practical work. Plus everyone got along great.
oh, Sunlight rising over my next door neighbours shadowed house. Turns out that writing a mental train of thought blog just before you go to bed, doesnt really put your mind at ease, ready to sleep... There are so many artists, illustrators, designers etc in the world right now, it is pretty saturated, especially with the internet taking over everyones lives, i mean come on, the internet is just an image, filled with interactive text and more images. blah de blah its all designed and reworked and designed right back up the throat of C:\FFS
haha. Sleep is not an option right now. , I just had an idea to "discover" this page on Stumble. fucking stumble, i mean, great idea, but not that great for someone who is liable to procrastinate for hours, given the right stimulus. on a different note, it seems like everyones so uptight using the net nowadays, got all this etiquette and jargon, i recommend the plain english guys. Heres an excerpt from their website.

Gobbledygook of the week
'The results of the price barometer illustrate that the reprieve in the pace of price inflation evident in the first quarter has abated.brilliant.
Well, gobbledygook ey?
The legitimate inferrence negates the loyalty referendum in plain sight of the monetary axis, thereby opposing the fiscal membrane thus. and soforth.
yess... yess...
eyebrow to the sky, my good sons.
I dont really know why i never thought of this before, doing a warts n all goody bag of fun.
haha, ok, i was just looking at the google homepage, and thought "hey, if you put google into numerics, it would be 900913" so i typed it in, and VOILA
