About me

I live and work around Shoreditch, London. My obsession with making Internet stuff leads me to spend my days heading up the tech side at POKE. What you’re looking at is entirely my doing, though, and as you’ve probably guessed, in no way reflects POKE’s views on anything, at all, ever.

In addition to providing me with a soapbox, this site tracks what I’m up to online using feeds from Flickr, del.icio.us and others.

Wait.

Wait.
What a dejected, disconsolate train-waiter. Note well the rounded hunch of the shoulder, the crestfallen tilt of the head; the ennui, the loneliness. The intolerable »tick, tock« of the oversized clock, ramming home the inescapable passage of time, a constant, ever-present reminder of the fleeting nature of human endeavour, wrapped up in meaninglessly snazzy luggage or not. Haha, well, never mind, eh?

You'd never have got signage like this in the Soviet Union. That's for sure.

    i like the way you cropped it too - the order to 'wait' adds a slightly disturbing layer of meaning --looks like it's from a film like Brazil
