Here are some photos from our collaboration with Sonic Boom - Animorphia. The piece was an experiment in print, light, and sound, inspired by the concept of animism and explorations into visual distortions both man made and those found in nature. It was great to see and meet so many people enjoying the experience and ruining their eyes and minds, we hope you are all ok now :) Big thanks to Sonic Boom and to Craig and the rest of the festival crew for making it all possible. Thanks to Keith Ainsworth for the amazing fish eye shot (2 photos down from top).

We set out last week with a snowboard bag full of prints from our last show Spectral Nation, plus a few new pieces. We are super happy with how the show looked, and also how it sounded thanks to the Timon Botez sound installation collab. Big thanks to those who made it down to the opening and a massive thanks to Timon at Galleri Storck and his family for their hospitality. The show will be up until the 15th of this month so if you are in the area drop on by. Bjerregaardsgate 29C, 0172 Oslo. 12noon-4pm Tue-Sat.

YOUNGHUSBAND / DROMES

Their first album release 'Dromes' is out this September 16. We have worked closely with the band and record label Sonic Cathedral for the last few months, and the result is all oozy and warped, a fluorescent neon eye popper to gaze out to. A thousand thanks to Nat and Euan for asking us to be involved with this great record and allowing total retinal freefall, one love..... hurry up and get your hands on a copy it looks much better in the flesh.

ULTRAMARINE - THIS TIME LAST YEAR

 photo ultra_zps0142dab4.jpg  photo ULTRA2_zpse5dc44a8.jpg  photo ultra4_zps14e206f1.jpg It was about this time last year we met Paul Hammond from Ultramarine. Those with memories long enough will remember this electronic duo from the early nineties scene. He asked if we would like work on the artwork for their new album 'This Time Last Year' due for release this September. This is their first full album release for too many years, and we jumped at the chance to be involved. Paul has a great understanding of print, so we are super happy with the results. Here is a little taster in the form of a tour poster from the project. We will post more about this project.... realsoon.net.
