SUMMER OF SLACKNESS - INITIAL COLOURBURST

FIRSTLY, This is the cool concept of ""colourful things"" that you can experience. O-kay here goes, this vibe is like a cool slacker vibe. To cliarify, I think I will do the Experience/Dissertation/Presentation starting from a concept which I will break down at the end, but it revolves around the idea of SLACKNESS VS. CULTURE which is an article title and is about Dancehall music lyrics and how the slackness is about women/drugs/guns and the culture is rasta/the government/freedom etc.

The vibe has a fairly obvious early-90s one, which you will see.... obviously... but i like it. Major influences would be Nike ACG, humidity, sweating (obvious link to humidity), shorts, saltwater, searing heat, really loud music, appropriating seriousness/serious things for idiocy and stupid purposes


NOTE ---- The post and all the subsequent posts, will be broken down by Video - Audio - Pictorial, so that you, the reader, can go from the most full-on experience, to initiate you to the idea, to the less-full-on-experience, for once you probably have a handle on things.


OKAY - BREAK-DOWN completed - ENJOY THE FIRST POSTERINO.........

SUMMER OF SLACKNESS - INTRO

De Beginning of Summer is a good time to consider the options for the months ahead. The past few days' rain is v/ good for sitting in your house and thinking or going outside and having to wear waterproof-ish shoes and shorts. I thought to myself, "Why don't you try and show some of the people on the internet what you think about?" I then thought to myself, "That sounds like you want to start a tumblr blog, ostensibly a '' VISUAL DIARY ''" Then i thought, "Jesus Christ, shit, what if you are..?????" Then I thought of the blogerinos which I like and that post a lot of image-heavy content and I thought, "okay brus, just go ahead and do what you want, isn't that the whole point of the internet".

SO, widout further adeu - SUMMER SERIES BY THEO LANDON.

Blade Star Makes Good

This is the best version of Me & Bobby McGee I've ever heard and I doubt anybody could disprove me. I never got into Kristofferson, because he seemed pretty cheesy, but hey, rhodes scholar etc etc here goes.

Interesting Art

Friend Sam (aka OnIslands) Posted this interesting picture on his blog, of a sculpture in the garden of the British Society of Dentistry.

It is entitled, "A Visual Representation of the Teeth of the Average Briton"

\_A_/ (that's the cowboy hat)

Okay, hey readers. I found this great photo by this nice photographer, Richard Renaldi (click on his name to go to his website) and basically, the look/outfit (of the man) is what i would probably wear, if i could. Maybe it's too anachronistic/what a tool for an inner-city-liver like myself, it's also coming up to summer (so sans jacket), but perhaps even the "Colour Pallettee" is even very, very, nice. Even if none of this works out, my general demeanor can easily be matched to that displayed (just joking).

I've about exhausted this thing for now, but I really like it.

exposed these social networking guerillas, hope they don't get put up against the wall

This person calls this Butter Chicken Bolognaise

It'll probably be a well curated selection of men's ephemerea, accompanied by a well-informed discussion of style and what constitutes this as well as

- I'm thinking of starting a blog, what do you think?

- Hmmm, I'm not sure, what'll it be on?

- Well, things I like, but with a focus on style, more than fashion. Because I think that fashion is really fleeting, but style is something that is lifelong and encompasses a lot more than just the clothes you wear.

- Yeah, that's an interesting point. It seems like it could be a good idea.

- Yeah, I think it will be.

- Oh cool, so so you have a name for it or whatever?

- Yes, I do, I have called it; The Age of The GOlden Experience

- That sounds interesting

- Yeah, I really wanted something that sort of is ambiguous, but conveys a certain mood or emotion. Because the theme itself will not be any one thing, rather, whatever comes to mind or would appeal to an audience.

- Cool

- Yeah, anyway, I'll see you soon.

- Okay, bye, have a good day.

- Yeah, you too

"hello Julie"
"Hi, John, how are you?"
"Yeah, I am okay. How are you? what's up with your life at the moment?"
"ah oh yeah, not much, just getting around with uni. you know the drill"
"haha, oh yeah, me too"

Faceo Booko Picso Part One-Oh

I'd like this to be more in the spirit of a folk-art-found-objects type thing, than an internet-trawling-life-magazine type thing, but here are some photos i've found on facebook. I don't think it's surprising that most of these photos are portraits and I don't there's much more to make of it, than that that's the nature of social networking (DER)

I have a friend, Sam, who's moved over to Ireland. He has this blog that he puts all these photos he takes up on; it's called OnIslands and on it he posted this photo, for all the workerwear fans

Dead Photographer

The photographer, Corinne Day, died a few days ago. Anyway, I didn't immediately know her name, so after wikipedia-ing her and reading she did this topless photo shoot with a sixteen year old Kate Moss, I immediately searched Google for this shoot. Nothing THAT good came up, which I kind of expected. Here are some pictures of Corinne Day's and it turns out I knew who she was, I'm just shit-as with names.

Do Not Recommend 1

Today at university, I was starving. I went into the refectory and I got a piece of wholemeal bread and I put caesar dressing on it and some hot chilli sauce and I jammed it all into my mouth. Sauce went all over my hands and around my mouth; the bread was hard to eat and not very tastey. I tried to kid myself that it was borne out of some starving necessity, but I think I just wanted to seem cool and desperate. After I did this and tried to swallow it down, I went and bought some noodles in the container that you put the hot water over, which were pretty tastey, but jammed with MSG. The noodles satisfied me and they came with soup as well.
