I’ve just relaunched my Architecture + Interiors Photography website and in conjunction, over the next two week or so, this blog is going to be completely relaunched and revamped as well. We’ve about thirty or so posts in the drafts folder ready to be posted, so keep your eyes peeled!

Handmade Brighton Christmas Market

theclickclickpress — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 22:28:04 +0000

I’ve spent the day finishing off the poster for the next Handmade Brighton. It’s going to be mega – thirty-odd very talented local designers selling their wares downstairs at Komedia (Gardner St, Brighton). It’s on December 5th, from 11am ’till 4pm with free entry and you’ll pretty much be able to get all your Christmas shopping done under one roof. In one day!

See you there!

Mysterious Letters

theclickclickpress — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 14:43:47 +0000

I defy any decent human being not to read these letters and have their heart-warmed, their day brightened or their face smiled. It’s a beautiful, beautiful idea and you can even get involved in the next phase over at Kickstart (which, in itself, is also a beautiful beautiful idea).

Michael and Lenka decided one day to write a letter to every person in the world, starting with Cushendall in Northern Ireland. Their letters are generally about not much at all – that isn’t intended to do a dis-service to them, as this makes the project even more momentous – that they find something new to write about with each letter.

Head on over here, for more wonderful letters and here, to get involved!

Handmade Brighton

theclickclickpress — Mon, 12 Oct 2009 15:47:44 +0000

Our Kirst organised Handmade Brighton last week (on Oct 4th) and it was a brilliant day and a great chance to meet some of Brighton’s most talented designer / makers working today. The stalls were excellent, music great and the free cakes delicious (the bar was open to, so that was pretty good)!

Here are some pics from the big day….

Check out their blog (which looks remarkably similar to ours…..), and their facebook….

Made of Myth for Amusement

theclickclickpress — Mon, 24 Aug 2009 08:15:51 +0000

I’ve never been much into computer games. When I was a lad I had a Sega Master System II and got well into Olympic Gold and Moonwalker, but since then I’ve not really picked up the baton from my childhood. However, had I had Amusement to read, maybe I’d be more into them, because they make them look all sexy and cool, replacing the image of middle aged men playing online fantasy games in their disappointed parent’s basement, dreaming about the day Lara Croft will turn up to rescue them from it all.

This latest story, Made of Myth, reveal how early computer games weren’t created in developer’s labs, but forged and created for real in factories all over the world. The accompanying text fits the photos perfectly. Check these photos of Tetris blocks, Pong pieces and Sonic rings being created…

Walking City

theclickclickpress — Mon, 17 Aug 2009 12:41:31 +0000

Well, let’s done talk about photography again. I’ve just spent the large part of this morning running back and forth through Walking City’s photos on flickr. This young gent is an incredible talent, his portraits, combined with landscapes, are simply beautiful and amongst the first to get me excited in a while. So clean and fresh. I stand in awe, as he’s nailed that cleanliness and it’s bleedin’ hard.

Anyway, let’s have a good look at some of Christopher’s photos….

What is hilarious about all this, is that he describes himself as “just a wee hobbyist”. Bloody hell, we’ve no chance if the hobbyists are turning out work of this quality. Great great stuff.

Wordle

theclickclickpress — Mon, 10 Aug 2009 17:35:39 +0000

I’m sure everyone probably knows all about this by now and is thinking “come on, this is so Jan 2009″ or whenever. But just a quick nod to Wordle, created by Jonathan Feinburg, as it is really simple and very addictive. Just upload your words, or link to a blog and it created this crazy beautiful word clouds based on frequency of use. Then you can edit the font, colour, layout etc etc. If you have a blog, you’ll be hooked. Here’s our very own clickclickpress done chucked through it….

Oh, fun. Cheers Wordle.

Amy Bennett

theclickclickpress — Mon, 10 Aug 2009 08:18:52 +0000

I’ve been meaning to blog about this for a while now, being slightly obsessed with Architecture and Architectural Models and such. Amy Bennett builds little cardboard models of street-scenes and then does a painting of them, and the result is these beautiful images that look like dioramas. Lovely serene stuff.

Amy Bennett folks, check out her website for lots more info and images.

Aha! The clickclicksocial

theclickclickpress — Sat, 08 Aug 2009 22:00:11 +0000

Seems like a while back now. Also seems a lot like we should have blog’d about this a while ago, beens as one of our esteemed number curated, hosted and shot the whole thing. But, such is the rampant and regular delays on this blog, we’re only just getting around to it. Or rather, I’m only just getting round to it. Now.

Okay, to celebrate the first massive months of the launch of the Architectural Photography branch of clickclick towers, clickclickjim, we decided to have a party at the flat and invite all my cohorts and collaborators (and clients) along to have a few drinks, listen to some music and get some proper photos done did as I set up some lights in one corner of the room and snapped away. Great fun was had by all, my arm was a couple of times bigger after lugging that flash head and ringflash about but it was more than worth it.

You can see a few more over at the webiste, here.

Thanks to all who came.
