conveninece[02] - i keep walking past 'gangs of padlock-boxes' [insert collective noun//insert locktype name] chained to vacant rental apartments around town. the estate agent provides you with the lock combination's so that you can take out the key and access the property by yourself. amazing, no more awkward property viewings with estate agents, whilst also giving passers by a sense of how many apartments are currently available for rent.

just like the real thing - how many real ones in your wallet the last time you looked? it's frightening to think how many of these are in circulation. vending & oyster machines are probably the best way to tease out the rotten ones from what i hear.

compilations[01] - they have been quietly happening in all kinds of new media formats forever but celebrating mixtapes seems to be everywhere at the moment. adam buxton has been leading the charge for me on the awesome radio 6, and by coincidence i stumbled upon the best mixtape [cd] i have ever received [yup look up, there it is]. it's all about the detail, obviously the tracks but the artwork, messaging and of course the who. when they all align then you end up with something awesome and i guess by default timeless too...

memory aid[01] - my clients got all excited when i lent them my annotated a-z last time i was in london. looking back over it with an eye for detail you can start to piece together some of my london story over the last 5 years. even when i had my iPhone it was still a trusted companion in my bag. iPhone features live in it in the form of old post it notes...

nostalgia[03] - two of the many things that felt über english last time i was back. london is great - fact. patterned table clothes and the announcer on the underground rock.

obsolete[03] - i love the technology you tend to find in old skool english B&B's. it fits so well with the nostalgic guest house aesthetic that never seems to go away. funky carpets, wallpaper, smells and table clothes. there is an ironic ace hotel style B&B out there somewhere waiting to happen.
