oh.my.god.

i forgot how much i love Fischerspooner. pan pipes and all.


I take the trouble, I take the time.I get the feeling that I‘m doing what‘s right.I may be reckless, maybe a fool but I get excited when I get confused.


Suicide Tuesday

hey hey hey!

so i know, iv been really awful with this blog, terrible! naughty naughty Flikkerr! its been a great rush around of doing different things since i have returned from europe but i think the time is right to make a come back here and i promise to bring you something slightly interesting to read and something perhaps more interesting to look at in the next few days.

but till then, its Suicide Tuesday Tomorrow!

what does that mean? well generally it means one too many tequila's and a lot of regret the next day. sounds great huh!?

I will be spinning all my favourites for all my favourites! so if you have any requests please let me know :)

Mr. Greg Tucker aka. Destrukto will be joining me with his suitcases of cds.

So pull through to Bob Rocks in Greenside Tomorrow Night from around 8 and perhaps ill buy you a drink from across the room.

Animation and Amsterdam

Well Hi guys!

Never thought id be writing a blog in the Netherlands but here i am and here it is.

So lets start with the Animation first shall we? sounds great.

This is Another Animation that i did for School using found objects, i prefer cables to lost socks, so i created my characters and sets out of mainly old computer parts, webcams, cables and headphones. i would have liked it to be a little longer but quite honestly i just ran out of time before i had to run for europe. it is entitled Eye am inside.


And speaking of running to europe.

it was 24 hours of travel but i finally touched down in Amsterdam on thursday Evening and ill tell you this place is pretty amazing. its not just the legal marijuana, Dr.Pepper abundance, Duvel's Alcohol content or The naked girls in windows its the vibe that the whole country has. kids dont have to hide stuff so they dont and its really refreshing to see all this creativity. i guess being stoned helps too.

so here are a few pictures from The Dam and from The Haag where we went yesterday to go see our buddy Murry's performance art piece.

Be Still


Hi there.


i thought this post could be all about my favorite photographs that i have taken of people.


these photo's hail from 2007 and 2010.


i must say that film is most definitely my home boy and i have selected 6 images that best represent my favorite features of film. each pair of images was shot on 3 different cameras and types of film and each pair has their own memories and feelings attached.


ill be blogging more in future about my camera collection and my different experiences of different camera's so maybe, just maybe, if you are thinking about buying a new camera you might just follow my advice.


lets jump right in.




these 2 images were taken on my Lomography Diana. i really like the thought of lomography and a lot of their camera's are actually really good, i own enough to know. these images were shot on medium format black and white ilford 400. they were taken in Febuary 2010.





these 2 images were taken on a Yunon yn 600, a pretty nice little plastic fixed lens camera, with a Diana flash attached. i really like how the colour temperature differs as the roll of film progresses, gotta love plastic cams! they were shot during May 2010 on 35mm Fuji Superia 200 with the sprocket holes scanned.




Finally these two images were taken in December of 2007 and are still two of my favorite photo's i have ever taken. this is for 2 reasons, i had just gotten into photography and i think these two photo's made me realize that maybe i could be a photographer and the fact that they depict that time so well. they were taken on my Pentax K100 using 35mm fuji superia 200.

Moving Pictures

well how bout that.

turns out a lot of you have a guilty pleasure in reading about my pretty boring views on things, i know at least 4 people that i know of listened to the last mix, and i even gained a follower! wow! thats 9! thanks LC!

in the side panel to your right you will notice a photograph of yours truly and above, and below for some reason, that photograph is a description of what i do. hang on a second, i havnt posted about any of those things other then being a music enthusiast and what the fuck do i know about music?

well apart from photographer i list visualist and apart from creating and triggering visuals live for Double Adapter i make short films in my day to day life as a humble student.

so here are two of them for your eyeballs:


This is just a 15 second claymation that i created for my Digital Arts class. I really like playing with plasticine, its like play dough for adults, if you are an animating adult i guess.

and the 2nd film


This is a short "music video" that i created for my video art class last year. i got the top mark in the class, booyah, and it was featured in the Wits School of Fine Arts top achievers exhibition at the beginning of this year, not bad huh? it is entitled Phosphene and the music is a demo of what would become The Frown
