project polar - 'love to hate' submission

just submitted my design for the first issue of project polar - under the theme 'love to hate'.
i love to hate computers. i work with them every day, they have allowed me to be creative and i have produced 99% of my professional and personal work on them. but i hate them. oh yes. they crash, they lie, they cheat and they make me as angry as angry anderson. i can't live with them and can't live without them. (my computer will probably error as i try to send this).

jetpac issue 24 - random (and FREE!) postcards

I recently entered a postcard to the Random Postcard Project, and I enjoyed it so much I wanted to do a set for jetpac.
I took a random book, chose 10 random words to illustrate.
If anyone wants one of the original postcards, drop me an email and I'll send one to you (hurry there are only 10 to collect!)

entry for the random project

Posting my entry to the Random Project this morning, fingers crossed it gets there in time.
"The Random project has gathered an international collective of designers and artists to produce typography-led work created in response to random words. Each participant picked a number between 1 and 100 which corresponded to an unseen word cut out of an issue of Time Out magazine. This randomly selected word then became the basis for their project."
