november mixtape #1



So here it begins. I've finally started to try get my head round some software and ultimately the aim is for an online radio show/podcast month by month filled with banter and good (and maybe not so good) tunes. Seeing as this is my first attempt it's completely devoid of banter I'm afraid (and all for the better, probably). I thought it's best to keep the first one simple, making it roughly an hour of music...

British Airways' new adverts

Okay, so although this isn't in tow with what I'd normally post, I thought I'd share as these as I find the following adverts aesthetically pleasing somewhat. Earlier I was flicking through The Creative Review's online escapades and came across the BA's latest "outdoor" ads. It's nice to see lush photography and a good use of negative space brought to our widestream attention; apparently i'm known to be a bit partial to the ol' negi-loving (not my words), so what can I do?! These ads warm me cockles. Nice idea, too, wouldn't you say?
