This sunny Monday morning I'd like to shout out floppy disks for being surprisingly resilient. Lots of my #Amiga disks were kept poorly. Some were kept in atrocious conditions (damp). And they were never looked after to start with. They lived in school blazer pockets or on my bedroom floor.

Here's a little drawing I did today for an upcoming party. Going softer and slightly outside this project's usual style as it's more of a low key chilled sort of thing than their usual parties. Yeah! #illustration #drawing #music #the2bears #dashthehenge #housemusic

If you write, record, paint, draw or use and enjoy any of the products of people who write, record, paint and draw, please appeal against the upcoming AI legislation. #StrengthenCopyright
Creatives! It's the last day to appeal the upcoming AI legislation. The website is here: ipoconsultations.citizenspace.com/ipo/consulta... and the key bit is the section below. TICK OPTION 1. Strengthen copyright! Option 3 - which the government prefer - is no good for us.

Who’s been putting off filling in that government consultation on AI then? Because you took one look and realised that fucking thing was designed SPECIFICALLY to put you off?

Thinking of all the lone creators spending their time filling in the consultation on Copyright and AI, on top of their other jobs as finance, marketing, R&D, IT etc, in the hope of protecting ourselves from some of the wealthiest, best-resourced entities on the planet.

My oh my. Adobe Illustrator gets crashier and crashier. Hasn't quit cleanly or liked to be minimised and restored for months. Still has some 30 year old bugs, like ghosts haunting the code. I have supernatural backstories for some of them.

This type of drawing just seems to appear over the course of several passes with different pens. I HAVE to harness this for drawing comics. It's so much faster than my usual process.
