It won in Website – Content & Design
This is a project I art directed and designed as my parting shot at magneticNorth. It was built by the talented team at mN in partnership with the BBC. I did the art direction, concept sketches, the little character, lots of UX and the landscape, I chose Danny Brown to do the gorgeous generative flowers and he did some magic voodoo.
I have resisted bragging about all the awards it has won but it was such a labour of love I may as well list them all here as payback for all the sleepless nights. So in no particular order: FWA, Pixel Awards, Adobe Y, IVCA Clarion and now a BIMA. Other stuff I do wins awards… maybe I will post that (one day when I can be arsed).
Here’s a pic of the work.
Bloom – ‘Smart Choices For The Carbon Conscious’ is a project I’ve been working on for a while, and it is now live and kicking, albeit BETA kicking at http://www.bbc.co.uk/bloom/flash.shtml
It’s an mN project produced in partnership with the BEEB and Danny Brown did the flower code magic.
It helps you find things that you can do to help stop climate change. So come on kids FIGHT APATHY… or don’t, whatever. It’s also my last piece of work for magneticNorth as I’m off (Dick Whittington stylee) to new places.
Here’s the new artwork I’ve made for the Mungolian Jetset versus Mari Boine release. This is shortly to be released by Luna Flicks on N.E.W.S

Yo The World! Did you know that sometimes garden gnomes get all fresh and excitable with digital media? Probably not. Well they do, and when they do they become Webby Honorees.
This is a project I worked on at magneticNorth (for Urban Splash) so check out the full story at this hot url www.mnatwork.co.uk (hey there’s even a stop frame video or at least a photo of me painting the little fellas someplace).
There were 11 of these gnomes all customised and broadcasting bluetooth messages around Leeds last summer (2007), this one is called Rod because he’s a hot rod gnome… of course!
Some work I have done. I have put my signature in the top in that spiders web for kicks.
I’ve just finished the design for the first release on Luna Flicks. It’s not printed yet, so still plenty of time to be utterly dejected by rubbish print quality but here’s the design: front and back of the 12″
Luna Flicks is run out of Oslo and is best described as Norwegian Disco (or just plain old psychedelic), and if that’s a good enough description for Piccadilly Records then it’s good enough for me. The stoat photography I use on the front is by Karina Lax.
