Here's a few stills that Tommy (Apateur) took on the video shoot a few weeks back...there's some more on his site (link to the right). I should do a page that links from the Vimeo page as he shot about 8 or 9 films over the whole day...will do...soon...ish...

I hate everything that is driven by fashion. From the beginning it was hating the sixties American way of styling. Especially the cars. They changed their styling every two years to sell new ones. Which has nothing to do with good design.

Just finished the latest project for Sixpack, one of my favourite clients.
Always a pleasure to work with, always great, open briefs and they want artists to be just that.
Doing some great collaborations at the moment, especially with the great Tom of Finland.
Not sure when the new stuff will be available, but I'll do a preview closer to the release date.
This is the last print I did for them.

Eno on the future of the record industry...

2010-02-02T13:11:00.002Z

"I think records were just a little bubble through time and those who made a living from them for a while were lucky. There is no reason why anyone should have made so much money from selling records except that everything was right for this period of time. I always knew it would run out sooner or later. It couldn't last, and now it's running out. I don't particularly care that it is and like the way things are going. The record age was just a blip. It was a bit like if you had a source of whale blubber in the 1840s and it could be used as fuel. Before gas came along, if you traded in whale blubber, you were the richest man on Earth. Then gas came along and you'd be stuck with your whale blubber. Sorry mate – history's moving along. Recorded music equals whale blubber. Eventually, something else will replace it."

"Behind everyone alive today, stand thirty ghosts. For that is the ratio by which the dead outnumber the living. Since the dawn of time, about one hundred billion human beings have walked on this planet. One hundred billion is about the number of stars in our Milky Way galaxy. So this means, for everyone who has ever lived, there could be a star. But of course, stars are suns with planets circling around them. So isn't it an interesting thought that there is enough land in the sky for everyone to have a whole world."

Aguirre, Der Zorn Gottes

2009-10-29T21:08:00.002Z

Don Lope de Aguirre: That man is a head taller than me. That may change.

Don Lope de Aguirre: Perucho, don't you think the cannon might be a little bit rusty?
Perucho: It might.

Don Lope de Aguirre: I am the great traitor. There must be no other. Anyone who even thinks about deserting this mission will be cut up into 198 pieces. Those pieces will be stamped on until what is left can be used only to paint walls. Whoever takes one grain of corn or one drop of water... more than his ration, will be locked up for 155 years. If I, Aguirre, want the birds to drop dead from the trees... then the birds will drop dead from the trees. I am the wrath of god. The earth I pass will see me and tremble. But whoever follows me and the river, will win untold riches. But whoever deserts...

Okello: [Hallucinating] That is no ship. That is no forest.
[Arrow hits him]
Okello: That is no arrow. We just imagine the arrows because we fear them.

[last lines]
Don Lope de Aguirre: I am the wrath of God. Who else is with me?
Don Lope de Aguirre: I am the wrath of God.
Don Lope de Aguirre: I, the wrath of God, will marry my own daughter and with her I'll found the purest dynasty the earth has ever seen.

I believe in the power of the imagination to remake the world, to release the truth within us, to hold back the night, to transcend death, to charm motorways, to ingratiate ourselves with birds, to enlist the confidences of madmen.
I believe in my own obsessions, in the beauty of the car crash, in the peace of the submerged forest, in the excitements of the deserted holiday beach, in the elegance of automobile graveyards, in the mystery of multi-storey car parks, in the poetry of abandoned hotels.
