Okay, I’ll try again :P I’m gonna go with the “inclusive” New Zealand option. I’ve lived in New Zealand for 16 years, but only explored the South Island for the first time this year. I quit my job, and wandered through the South Island for two weeks with nothing much more than some hiking gear and my trusty camera. During a turbulent time in my life, it was therapeutic beyond measure.

Did we all go to the same Lotusphere conference? I got to hear Sir Tim Berners-Lee speak about open and free internet around the same time as SOPA and that's the story I came away with from the conference.

Delicious looking food. Someone needs to invite me over to their MyFoodBag night.

I think a good next step would be MyFoodBags for bachelors and bachelors-at-heart. Easy to prepare snacks for guys wanting to wean off takeaways. I asked the founder she says it's not completely out of the question.

I like Askew's silos, but his paint splattered cherry picker was even cooler.

A few more: Here

I like the photo of the electricity cable with the blue silo background. It reminds me of those really bright favelas (slums) you'd find in Rio. Not sure if that's a very good thing, but oh well.

There's only more day left for Paper Pirates so I'd recommend you whittle away quickly.

This is what an A0 photo print looks like. Over the Labour Weekend I made four of different photos I've taken around Auckland.

I'm sending the one in the photo to an exhibition displaying only photocopied/cheap print images. I still haven't figured out how to mail the A0 photo, so might have to drive it out.

Paper Pirates

I've got another 3 back home of different photos, what should I do with them?

Screw you, I’m Boba Fett – Armageddon Expo, Auckland

Like many nerds, geeks, cosplayers, bronies, trekkies and trekkers – I was at Armageddon this weekend revelling in geekdom.
