Fred's Three's

I had the amazing opportunity to attend a at UCA by Fred Deakin. Famously known for his collaboration with Nick Franglen as the electro-pop (don't kill me) group, Lemon Jelly. Fred is also one of the founders of Airside Studios here in London; who produce some of the most talked about info graphics in industry.

Fred is a balls-to-the-wall no BS kinda guy with an enviously tenacious manner who readily divulged his industry secrets and experience. Pretty fucking rare if you ask me. His experience as a designer and his beliefs on what & how things should be struck a cord with everyone in the room. Reminded me of my early days coming out of Saatchi with a bitter taste vowing I would in some way crush their nuts with the same mantras as Airside.

Fred's Threes:
-------------------------

Here are some of things he left behind:

Give people thrills; increases your bond with your fans.
Jobs that you do are your career.
Cherry pick your best assets and run with them.

Mission Statement :

Blow people's mind, have fun, make money.

If you could take anything away from the talk it would be :

Fly a lot of missions - Be open to try everything..
Do it Yourself!!

Illuminatingly Creepy

Art finally disproves neurologists as we now know that Koalas pull at our prefrontal cortex and tickle our neurons as sculpted by Kate Macdowell . Making neurologists no smarter than a Kinder Egg Surprise.

Desperate Housewives vs Innuendoes

When Ads Taste like...

cardboard. 

Exactly one year after Golden Girls star Bea Arthur passed on, PETA decided to reprise her role as posthumous Maude in a very creepy and tasteless ad for animal cruelty. 

You'd think that a charity like theirs would adhere to some sort of class when getting the point across..

Cringe Worthy Playground Banter

Translation of the above text; Omak - your mother is nice. This term was coined in NES around ten years ago by a certain Bully. To call anyone's mother anything in the Middle East is a huge offense worth of a spine crushing battle behind the school buses. Revived by a good friend of mine, I choose to encapsulate one of the great cringes of my pubescent days.

How wicked is this? We should make one for Egypt..

Ensconced Spatula: London's Word Festival

Ensconced Spatula was one of the many words suggested to go in London's strangest poem. (Revealed at the end of the 4 week festival in an orgy of screen-print mayhem thanks to The Chip Shop). Should you fancy a board with the word of your choice hand printed then make your way up to the bar next week for a gentle afternoon with slam-wrinters and wordsmiths out East.
