Incredible. 5 yrs ago, I filed a FOIA request w/SOUTHCOM for photographed copies of all artwork created by Guantanamo detainees for a project I've been working on. SOUTHCOM just turned docs over & redacted 100s of paintings citing law enforcement techniques & procedures exemption

Just to be clear – and prompted by a number of emails to us. We had nothing to do with the cover of the new Bowie release ‘Toy’. Also, none of the boxsets are by us. We haven't worked on any covers since Glastonbury 2000 release.

We have designed a book for long time collaborator David Elliott. Published by the @artasiapacific ‘Art & Trousers: Tradition and Modernity in Contemporary Asian Art’, features David’s best writing. The design is based on ‘Exquisite Corpse’ – with key artworks & type used.

Billboard 2011, in collaboration Minnie Weisz Studio & funded by Kings Cross Central. The text mentions the now hidden River Fleet, the significance of St Pancras Old Church & the area as a meeting place to prepare for battle. It’s in mono and one typeface – our own – ‘Infidel’.

Very happy that our @adbusters billboard was featured on the front of Gatekeeper Magazine.
More though, it’s great to be see a publication where the organisers are walking the talk and tackling difficult creative issues that face us all. gatekeepermagazine.com
