Books, rabbits, mugs and sites.

USPG web site

It may seem that we haven’t been busy what with a lack of recent newsletters, but rest assured that this isn’t the case. Not that you might have been worried. For the last few months we have been working on “white label” projects bound by a confidentiality clause.

So busy in fact that announcing the launch of the USPG (United Society for the Propagation of the Gospel) site at the beginning of the year slipped through the net.

The site has been running now for a few months with the client updating via a custom CMS, complimenting us on it’s ease of use.

Discussions about adding new features are about to start, so consider this an official announcement for phase one!

Say hello to Wrabbit

The recent upgrading of the studio wireless network to 11N (geek speak) found our nabaztag neglected and looking forlorn on the shelf of dead technology.

She’s been given a dusting, so say hello to Wrabbit and us by sending a message via our web site, don’t forgot to say who you are, unless it’s rude of course.

Don’t have a clue what we’re talking about? www.nabaztag.com tells you all about electronic rabbits.

Creative Practice

Michael Atavar’s forthcoming book “How To Be An Artist” has received an unprecedented interest from publishers, with a flurry of appointments to attend he asked us to redesign his web site in a matter of days. Not content with giving us perhaps the shortest deadline we’ve ever had, he also raised the ante by briefing that the site should be engaging and creative without the use of imagery.

We are delighted with the result achieved in three days, including a new logotype for the animated site using no Flash, allowing it be to updated by Michael himself, and fully indexed by search engines.

40 Something

Adam on his recent travels at the BBC spotted someone drinking out of a Carter 30 Something mug featuring the record sleeve design we did back in the day.

A quick email found Jim Bob and Fruitbat alive and well, and in exchange for some Flat Earth slippers we have new studio crockery.

Wife Swap

No, not a new service from Flat Earth, instead Julian is delighted and amazed to find one of his microfictions – a very very short story – accepted for publication by nthposition, an award winning literary web site.

United Reggae says ...who bring together reggae and modern electronic styles under the lived in but venerable spoken tones of Guyanese born writer, former Black Power activist and Linton Kwesi Johnson contemporary Mark Matthews AKA Trampingman... ...if the returns of Portishead & Tricky have piqued your interest in blunted loops and idiosyncratic voices; this well crafted, atmospheric little set could be your summer selection of choice.

Anne Baker performing at ArtsAdmin

Anne has been invited to perform in David' Gale's Peachy Coochy Nites, at the ArtsAdmin bar in Aldgate East, this Thursday evening at 7.30pm.

The question you are most likely asking yourself is, what's a peachy coochy nite?

“Just a projector and 20 images. Just 20 seconds per image. During those 20 seconds the Presenter talks about the image. So simple. So precise. So demanding. This is the Peachy Coochy way.“

All welcome, apologies over the short notice.
