Flashbacks of shutter island. Riven even.

Mind blowing stuff right?

Damn should have brought a picnic.

Roa.

Nanami chalking one up.

Andy Uprock.

Made of plastic cups stuffed into the fence.

Ears.

Banksy was here.

These Japanese breakers were going off. The Red Bull Shadow Wars had b-boys and b-girls from around the country battling it out in front of a pretty huge energetic crowd.

The warm-up floor was pretty cool to watch too.

You can actually pay to camp overnight on the island, or even rent one of the houses at the very top if camping isn’t your thing. The sheer amount of work on display had me wondering whether the artists actually camped out whilst they put Outpost together.

Then we found this hole in the wall.

The tunnel was lined with art, and went forever. Reminded me of the entrance to the batcave.

James Jirat.

Ears.

As huge as it gets with a spray can.

Prosciutto pizza at the bar was awesome. Beers, wines, champagne, people were getting wasted in the sun, trapped at the bar!

Beers and pong!

Oh hai it’s James!

Ben Bigeni & Ken Taylor battling it out live at Secret Wars.

This T-Shirt exhibit was crazy tight. Would work as a standalone exhibit anywhere in the world.

I’ll take that one, and that one… and that one and that one.

Kid Zoom got arty with it.
The OUTPOST PROJECT has to be the most massive street art project I’ve ever seen to date. My visit there yesterday left me gobsmacked (great to see our Govt. get behind something like this!).
Held at Cockatoo Island in Sydney Harbour more than 150 renowned artists have been let loose on the entire island. In sheds, on walls, fences, anything and everything was covered in art.
You have until the 11th to check it out. If you’ve got nothing to do right now I highly suggest you check it out (bring your mates). Entry is free, you just need to pay for your ferry ride (ferry rides are always fun right?!) and the island itself is amazing. What was a dockyard during WWII is now a barron industrial landscape. I spent half the day checking out the art, the other half just exploring the island!

I attended Shirley and Jing’s Wedding last Sunday. I’m so happy for these guys. I had a great time, it was an awesome celebration! I’m sure you’ll find new entries on Jing’s Blog and Shirley’s Blog soon.
SUGA and I went and saw Drive this afternoon. I liked it despite the shit ending. My review is on Zen.

I overheard quite a few first time gamblers at the TAB today, not to worry! There was a guy at this table to help you place your bet.
I was pretty sure I wasn’t going to gamble today on the Melbourne Cup. I got a text from Rob at Zen, told him not to wait up for me (I had the CTATC Design School Talk on earlier today) but when I got into work the race hadn’t started so we hit the pub, then the TAB.
It’s strange that the entire nation is encouraged to gamble just for the one day huh? Especially considering gambling is a problem in Australia that ruins a lot of lives. Why not promote smoking a cigarette the one day a year instead? Give it a go, you might get hooked?!

Karting action.

It’s the me!

My GTI (love this shot!).

Clifton and Timmy sleeping together (lol).

Hotel sweets.

Hotel.

Felix and I.
Jing took waaaaay better shots than I did, more on his flickr.

Kartatak indoor karts at Villawood.

Clifton wearing the Angry Bird outfit that Jing had to wear all night.
Jing’s Bucks party was on last Saturday. We hit the Karts earlier in the day and just before we got on the track one guy flipped his kart in the tunnel (the black thing in the picture above) and almost knocked himself out (not to mention losing a lot of skin). That kinda freaked everyone out but once we were on, it was on! The track was tight. Crazy hard to overtake which made for some good contact. I was sure to T-Bone Jing out of a corner, Cliffy got the fastest lap of the day (looks like I’m always destined to be mr 2nd on kart days!). Later that afternoon we all smashed pre-dinner shots in a swanky hotel room in the city, hit Churrasco for dinner (was perfect) then I can’t talk about what we did after, but holy shit it was full of laughs!

Dad and my sister Jamie at 11 weeks.
Love this photo of my Dad. Freaky that I’m older now than he is in the photo. Spent some of the night going through old photo books of Jamie when she was a baby, comparing her to Miles, they have the same nose but everything else is Richie for sure!

Soooo cute!

Mum and Miles.
He’s smiling heaps more, laughing and giggling too :)
