Planning a different holiday this year... bought this for the trip.

Brighton Day Trip - 24/Sept/1998

2009-04-05T19:38:00.003+01:00

Certainty level: 5%

On a day trip to Brighton, carrying a minidisc recorder, I managed to
collect several indistinct instances of what I think were people swearing
at me. Between the 0.5 and 1.5 second marks of the above recording is
something that sounds like "nutter". I recorded at least three other much
more obscene sexual words on the same day.

I don't honestly think the "nutter" recorded here is part of the conspiracy
against me. I've been called similar things elsewhere, where it's been
blindingly clear that the insult does form part of the conspiracy - but
not in this case. This illustrates quite a worrying point - as a result of
the many years of abuse "in public", I now sometimes simply don't know
whether somebody is insulting me because they think I look like a dweeb, or
whether the conspiracy is in action. Sometimes, due to background noise
and people talking quietly relative to ambient noise, I can't be sure of
what's being said, even after listening to it again on my minidisc. Or put
another way, I now have a mild form of what I recognise to be occasional
auditory delusions - but these are fuelled by the many years of actual
verbal abuse.

I couldn't help but notice that Buddy Pine from the Incredibles movie
bears more than a slight similarity in appearance to controversial
anti-Muslim Dutch politician Geert Wilders. Am I alone in seeing this?
Maybe.

Harold sat watching the TV, although Harold had never switched the TV on. The TV sat there in a box, made of cardboard with a picture printed on the outside of the item within. Harold was transfixed by the print, and found himself unable to open or distress the box in any way...

A gameshow idea!!!

2008-04-15T23:47:00.002+01:00

Years ago I had a lot of success in lesser known asian tv channels with my hit cult gameshow, "Name That LOGO!" or " 名前とロゴ "

I have now created a new one.

Its called "Pimp My Presentation" or " 私のプレゼンテーションのポン引き ".

Basically, each week 2 or 4 consultants will bring a really bad presentation onto the show. The audience will pick the worst and then the resident champion presentation pimper will weave their magic, to effects of swirly lights, studio band music (maybe different guest band each week haven't decided) and dancers.

The gameshow host would have an array of great catchphrases "show us your template mate!" and "will you look at the size of that font!"

Am looking for backing.

Who is this?

In London on Tuesday 8th April, a mystery woman with an award, paparazzi snapping away.

the biggest outlook email inbox

2008-04-05T19:27:00.001+01:00

OK I googled for this and didn't find a forum, site, blog etc. Am shocked, perhaps I'm wrong and there is a whole community dedicated to this out there but is there a world record for the largest or biggest inbox? I ask because I know someone, let's call him CT who has 9314 message in his inbox. I was shocked. Perhaps with the devastating levels of spam around this is a futile question but it seems to me there must be some phenomenal inboxes around out there. Please share the facts, it started here.. Outlook, Outlook express, Eudora, Thunderbird, DreamMail, Incredimail, Entourage, I don't care what you use I just want to find the fullest!!!

epoxymoron?

logos

2008-04-03T01:00:00.001+01:00

Very important, a logo. No go with no logo they say as far as identity and branding and t-shirt sales go, that's for sure. So today I made 15 pages of them and will make 15 more or so, logos that is shortly. Here they are http://www.design2d.co.uk/daily_object/april_2008/1.htm . Will push boundaries with the second batch. Would grade them as 60/70% interesting/amusing so far. Have to raise the logo bar as it were.

Could of course do some research, be more thorough, pastiche examples from specific places and eras, could do. but then again am not being paid. But money isn't everything. No it's not. Perhaps I would if the audience was there, this is showmanship then? no. It;'s not? no. Who are you talking to? I don't know.

What is the motivation?

Not sure. Humour/making something/factor X/...

Logos. There is a practise I have encountered during freelance contract work of tracing actual company logos for use in documents. Bizarre. Illegal of course, could simply ask the company to send a copy. They could refuse but then wouldn't that be absurd? Their logo is a public badge. If they said 'well what are you going to do with it?' surely you could say, 'what does it matter to you, it's all publicity etc.!'

waffle

2008-03-31T12:31:00.001+01:00

Not the edible type but the spoken stuff. To some, 'to waffle' is an art. A gentle meandering river of spoken thought collecting arbitrary mental jetsam and flotsam as it were, spreading out in all directions it may seem to become a mass of tributaries leading eventually to a sea of turgid meaningless stuff. Through it all should remain a shocking inoffensiveness, almost oppressive in it's hapless, harmlessness. If it is offensive it is not waffle, it is a tirade or diatribe. Everyone knows that. Personally I have never been able to waffle, I have tried oh how I have tried but alas it is a peak I have yet to conquer. Mount waffle, a mythical location set high in the sky forever bathed in... waffle.

Have just been looking at a photographic web site by a London photographer called Adrian Houston. He is the bloke behind the photographs in the Mr and Mrs Smith hotels photography book. Luxury locations all over the world. There are also celebrity portraits, landscapes, commercial campaign shots on the site. See what you think don't listen to me. www.adrianhouston.co.uk

changes

2008-03-21T23:34:00.001Z

The Design2d site is not a commercial web site. It is a professional hotch-potch for sure, a gamut of products relating to a few varied activities spanning some years. Photographs, drawings, paintings, prints, text, web related design. It is time for a revamp. How often is that said about a web site every day I wonder? I will shortly give a breakdown of the content statistics and draw up a plan for the re-design.

SAVE MONEY & EARN MONEY, IMPRESS FRIENDS & FAMILY ALL AT THE SAME TIME!

Fed up with nonsense schemes that are confusing and cost a fortune?

YES!

Let us offer you a jargon-free bargain!

It's easy.

Simply put, we can save you money with nothing more than our 1st class affiliations with sellers and lenders.

The affiliation agreements can be quite complicated but one general rule is that the affiliate (that is you) must have been referred to the lender or seller using an affiliate Id which in itself has been referred through an affiliate ID scheme agreed by the affiliate. So make sure if you wish to take advantage of these savings that you register with the affiliate ID scheme agreed by the affiliate.

After initial registration any activity, whether purchase or borrowing or lending or selling is reported back to us and this is the information we will use to show how much has been saved and how much is due to be given back to the member of the affiliate ID scheme agreed by the affiliate. Generally as an affiliate we earn money by referring buyers and sellers or lenders and borrowers to the affiliate ID scheme agreed by the affiliate.

In a nutshell 10% of the fraction we save for each member of the affiliate ID scheme agreed by the affiliate is reinvested. Yes reinvested, back into the affiliate ID scheme agreed by the affiliate. Each affiliate ID scheme agreed by the affiliate has its own affiliation agreement and different conditions and prices will apply to each affiliate ID scheme agreed by the affiliate.

Although we will do our best to keep the information up to date regarding the affiliate ID scheme agreed by the affiliate in the communications with the Affiliates please understand that the affiliate ID scheme agreed by the affiliate may change at any given moment. The timing of the return of fees will also depend upon what is stated in our affiliation agreement with the relevant affiliate ID scheme agreed by the affiliate. The savings will be available to the affiliate ID scheme agreed by the affiliate one month after the affiliation agreement states. This will ensure that enough time is given by the affiliate ID scheme agreed by the affiliate to report the details and the transfer of any monies is completed.

Its THAT EASY!

Any further information will be reported to the affiliate ID scheme agreed by the affiliate.

How much will it cost me?
Just $500.00 one-off fee

How much will I make?
It depends on the affiliate ID scheme agreed by the affiliate, but anything in the region of 5-50% of the fractional sum of the purchases or lending in any given quarter divided by the affiliate ID scheme agreed by the affiliate.

meetings

2008-03-19T11:41:00.000Z

Friday is team meeting day at the offices of the Daily Object, probably the greatest journal, newspaper diary amalgamation to hit a sheet of paper since Robert Maxwell (RIP) sat on the can. Here we are (pictured below) discussing, debating, deciding, deriding, chiding, colliding and projecting ideas, thoughts, graphics, concepts and hairstyles with the skill, wile and guile of a team of brilliant publishing warriors.

I love this job I really do. Nobody could tempt me away from it with anything less than the offer of actual money. No way.
I'm proud, that's why; too proud to have spent too many long long hours, sometimes days working on the Daily Object through day and night then day and night again till we got it right right to the end of whatever that might have been whenever it was, for whomever and for why ever it was. Not leaving, not budging from the spot! That's me at that meeting table, I'll be there at sunrise, at sunset, shifting only for the cleaner to hoover under my chair nobody else, not until that page is perfect, that text succinct, those colours exact, the fonts immaculate, the layout stunning.
Actual money would be nice sure, I mean I could sure enjoy speculating on positive equity?
I want ideas as bright as my shirt, I see people down on the street from here on the 66th floor and I enjoy the fact they have to look up to see me with my nose pressed against the window pane and my hands on the hips of my cotton wool mix trousered legs.
I feel I'm conquering my vertigo for them!
Take your money and shove it competitors everywhere! Unless you have good benefits too..

repetition of data

2008-03-19T11:35:00.001Z

Day one of the Daily Object begins. Its raining outside, but for a moment the downpour stops and light breaks through the clouds.

What a view I think. What a view.
It is as they say just "eye candy" though. It gives me no sense of relief. I'm still shaking from the recurring dream I have had every night for the last 3 weeks. It's Christmas, I'm an adult trapped in a child's body, mother takes me to the department store...to Santa's grotto, and....

pr & pr - coincidental abbreviation duplication or...?

2008-03-13T11:49:00.000Z

PR as in 'page rank' and PR as in 'Public Relations'. A coincidental abbreviation duplication or part of a global conspiracy to create duplicate abbreviations of everything perhaps? I think there may be some fact in my suspicions. Such an occurrence would throw the efforts to create a shorthand more efficient world into a dark period of confusion and chaos?

In desperation to attempt to speak, quicker, we may thus find it impossible and never achieve any kind of life at all. Stuck we will be with massively long turgid sentence structures because some group of subversives lurking in their cynical camp somewhere, have destroyed our ability to say what we need to say quickly and get home for our tea. Preferably just before rush hour.

A sad time indeed.
