review doctor who series 4
Everyone in england has a doctor,Whether they watched the show or not. Its determined by the age you are when watching doctor who could still scare you enough to have night mares. For me it Sylvester McCoy, with his linen jacket and and silly cane. But with the new version or doctor who in prime time slots on saturday not week night this new version of doctor who set out to grab the attention of all and break new ground for bbc scifi. Plus on the up side for the bbc scifi fans love a bit of merchandising. with the 4 series however we are in tyhe realms of the duff years for a scifi show. when it runs out of ideas when it bring back the same baddie that one two meny time.
but for doctor who there biggest problem for me is catherine tate , by bring a name into the new show for the first time they have done something different. firstly they made the side kick more of an equal and less I candy for the dads who should know better. secondly cathrine brings a more comic turn to the role role of assistant. But the problem is there relay on cathrine as a comic actress to much it means that everything she on screen year expecting her to start saying am i bored or talking tlike the nan.
in order to maintain the show qualities and not have Cathrine in the show as a gimmick it need to be pushed in to darker realms to balance the lightness of the new banter between the two main characters. Yes there have been strong emotional episodes and yes the writers have used her a as a tool for question the doctor but it still to fleeting to be meaning full. Its the writing that has to change this season not doctor or his assistant.

to good to be true

dear reader, missed the entry dsate for the comp mac got the files and has disappeared on me. Im building up other work to hand instead of the ad but i havent got the time or strength to really concentrate on some thing else. im tiered feed up and broke not a good combination

done and done

Dear reader contextual studies is done and in (happy days are here again even better we shot are ad. to be honest working with someone else has been a bit of a release it been nice to bounce of someone and escape from my own head for once. realy enjoyed working with actor and styling my biggest head ache been doing the visual at the end but that just cause I'm trying to get it right stright away and taken on Joeann's obsession with type and kerning

to be honest i havent even bothered to post most of these online anymore cos i dont want them read. anyway the end is ngih back to measuring bra me thinks is that a step up from selling shoes i dont know. drink any one

Review
10 years of Mathew Williamson
Design museum and the urbis gallery
I went to see this exhibition twice once in London the second time when I came to Manchester
Matthew Williamson is design no for his part dress and use of neon and bold colours. But to see how his work has grown creatively developing first in the use of his better and more interesting pattern cutting. To secondly moving away from being a design and become a complete fashion house and brand and see how he tackles introducing basic piece and accessories and how the change under influence of the brands look feel and message.
There is differently a feeling of coming of age in the middle of the exhibition and you can see how the move to show in New York rather then London affected his choice of prints. They become more geometrical with flash of seventy disco ketch. This is in contrast to the every camp and pastiche Indian and prints with ultra beading mixed in with 1950’s northern wallpaper from the early collection which reference bollywood and his own up bringing in Manchester.

The overall feeling of the exhibition is greatly effected by the venue that its in

It felt as if the work was fight against the space and your eyes where be bombarded by riot of colour from the print and fabric the use of the artificially light made the print panels striking and neon but the clothes dull. Even the clothing on catwalk still looked lifeless

In Manchester the open fell gave the overall exhibition a life that was not apparent in London . the clothing pick up the natural light and with the setting of urbis itself u feel the weight of beading and detail in the cloth.

Review
How manga took over the world
It split in to five section
Cute
Action
Manga in art, fashion and design
Manga as communication
EroticManaga

Went to this with a friend who wanted to see Mathew Williamson exhibit this was separated in to four rooms my favourite was the more commercial stuff never realise how much my graphic work is influence by the styling and characters from manga. The adult section was a little bit unnecessary but I guess you couldn’t leave it out . I watched akira when I was a kid so I know some manga is just sick porn. I differently have a preference for the more cute style then the action hero styles I think this lock a bit inferior to traditional American drawn comics.
But there is something a bit sinister about the preoccupation with really young characters, school girls in the uniform with tiny little skirt. Also it seams that that the proportion of the manga figure seam to be size zero style skinny wathe as to the big breasted Barbie style of western comics
