The Inaugural Post...

The photographs in this post are "Ghosts of Artworks Past" - or, rather, some of my past work that exists only in the realms of the interwebs.

One sad winter evening in 2009 - my external HD died it's final death. Taking with it every photograph, sketch, design piece, and digital remnant of any work I had done since leaving Art College in 2005.


What was even harder to stomach was the fact that I had turned on the HD that evening with the specific intent of backing EVERYTHING up. :(




So, in the loving memory of those lost ideas... I bring you some images. Enjoy.


These were all taken in 2007 on a freezing and snowy night, here in Brighton - coincidentally in the square in which I came to live 4 years later :) I always did like this square. I think the camera used was my trusty old Fuji Finepix something-or-other. It was quite a strange camera in that it had some semi-manual settings; so I just used to make sure it was a long exposure and snap my night-time walks. I preferred doing this at times to painstakingly setting up a shot. I enjoyed how the images came out like a swirling haze, with abstract shapes only making themselves clear as I re-walked my route in my mind.
