Publication and Press...






Since i blogged last a couple of really exciting things have happened... one of them only this morning. The first involves Publishing House Gestalten, they approached me a couple of months ago to be part of their new book 'VELO - Bicycle Culture and Design'... To be part of something like this kinda blew me away, i think i'm still getting used to the fact that my work is more 'out there' in the public eye and so to be involved in a book which i would probably buy and have on my shelf at home kinda knocked me for six... after i scraped myself off the floor and sent them the images they required it left my head, until only recently, when the preview of the book popped up on the Gestalten website. It is due to come out in the next couple of weeks, and i think will be available in the usual funky book shops. I can't wait to go into a shop and see it...

The second piece of 'knock me over crazy' happened this morning, and through the power of my new best friend 'twitter' [click the link on the left to follow me... i tend to tweet mainly about cycling stuff and other guff] some chaps that follow me @tawnycam and @afropaul sent me a great message to let me know i was in the London based free magazine SPORT. This publication comes out once a week and shows off hip stuff and interesting things as well as the week in sport that was and to come. It is handed out at tube and train stations and seen by LOADS of people. I had no idea that my t-shirts were going to appear in the mag but it certainly put a smile on my northern mug as i headed into london on my commute to Mind Candy.

So if you saw it in SPORT or fancy swooping on the book when it comes out, let me know... always great to hear peoples thoughts. Cheers
