Nick

Can someone in London, perhaps you Doddsy, go to the exhibition of these pictures of the wonderful Nick Drake at Snap Gallery in London for me? Thanks.

Conversation

Okay, this is fabulous. Someone has been forward thinking enough to organise a conversation with their twelve year old self. Clever.

Love

Oh my lord.  So beautiful.

Collaboration

James Hancock and his brother Tom, who was born with Down Syndrome, draw the most beautiful things.  Apparently "Tom relaxes James' technical obsessions and James enables Tom’s concentration and playful mark making".

What a fabulous idea.

Courage

It's so hard to watch these, but it's even harder not to.  For some reason I'm absolutely fascinated with ALS - largely I think because I cannot comprehend how one deals with the knowledge that one is about to die.  Tim LaFollette, who recently died, was an amazing man.  And his support team, The Often Awesome Army, is just incredible.

Generosity

PS. I LOVE this so much.

Strangers

Loving Hermine's 'Words for Strangers' project.  Sweet idea.



Via Something Changed

Inspiration

Nathan and Katie of Eight Hour Day have decided to travel across the United States for an entire year, in search of good design and inspiration.  They sold their home, rented out their studio, and have hit the road with their gorgeous dog in a cute little Volkswagen.  I'm so jealous.

Walking

The legendary Marcus starts his seven day, 800km walk through Germany tomorrow, on a quest to meet a man he admires and would like to potentially work with: Dr Peter Figge of Jung von Matt.

You can see live feeds of the walk on Marcus' blog.



Good luck Marcus.

Pancakes

Continuing the theme of childhood dreams come true, how brilliant are these pancakes Jim makes for his gorgeous daughter Allison?

Thank You

Leah Dieterich's mother always told her to write thank you notes, so she does.  One every day.

Oh so true.

Age

Two photographs of the same person, from different periods of time, spliced together.  Clever.
