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.

Spceco - You're Alight 7'' sleeve
The cover image of transistors (such beautiful objects) evokes their sonic lo-fi soundscapes, and we carried it through to create a barcode using the colour scheme of resistors which denote their voltage drop, each future release will have it's own electrical resistance value! Further encoding has been added by the invention of spcecotime allowing every release, gig and event to have a unique identifier. To complement the white vinyl we used two different varnishes and printed the inside of the sleeve metallic gold.
The single has already sold out, but you can hear the tracks on their myspace page.
*For those of you wondering nu-gaze is a return in interest of the 90's shoegazing music, My Bloody Valentine being a prime example who are also releasing their first album in fifteen years (we did sleeves for them too!)

The event also featured Adam's specially written "Bluetooth Mobile Phone Photo Slide Show Thingy" (we're still working on a name), which allowed guests to take a party snap, send it to the software via Bluetooth, and then see it appear on plasma screens across the venue.

The British Heart Foundation
Team Flat Earth will be entering, and after this summer’s training at StretchOm’s yoga holiday we’re hoping to beat our 30 minute time we achieved at this month's Trees for Cities 5K.
We would love to see you at Hackney Marshes, and any clients who run can have our complementary bottle of Radox (we have a few bottles already!)

The Pavement require database and web listings
The Pavement, a magazine published for the homeless, is expanding beyond London to Glasgow and Bristol, and needed an easy way to manage the listings for organisations offering assistance, both for the printed and online versions.
Building the database as given us interesting challenges we don't see in most jobs; a normal date entry doesn't work as most facilities offering support have, to say the least, idiosyncratic opening times. So apart from making sure every conceivable form of date and time could be entered, we wanted to be enable searches like “what's open today” or even “what's open now” to be carried out.
Working on this project has been an eye opener, for instance telecom companies‚ 50 free texts a month offers means that someone homeless can use pay-as-you-go cards to receive news and stay in touch. Which means anything published from the database should work on WAP, as well as be formatted for the hard-of-sight or be printed on a single sheet of A4 (libraries charge for printing).
It’s early days for us on this project, work on the web site is some way down the road (sorry, can’t help a pun), but in the meantime The Pavement as been nominated for a The New Statesman's web award, if they win it means a much better chance of sponsorship and advertising to help roll out the magazine in two new cities. So can we ask you to visit http://www.newstatesman.com/nma/nma2007/nominations/200702260067 and give them your vote.
