I’m reading this now. I bought it a year ago, but got busy and didn’t manage to finish it. I don’t remember a single thing from what I read last year, so this is kind of like a new book to me. I scanned the cover because I love how it’s so clean and simple.
Hmm. Maybe I should go scan more interesting book covers in my house.
1980 Olympic Coke Can (by thehouyhnhnm)
Description
“This Coca-Cola can, as I understand it, shouldn’t exist. This can, which was to be sold in the USSR, commemorates the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow, and Coca-Cola was to be the official soft drink of this Olympics; Олимпиада-80 in fact means “Olympics ‘80”. U.S. President Jimmy Carter ordered a boycott of this Olympics in protest against the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan in December 1979. Mr. Carter also spoke personally with Coca-Cola’s CEO in Atlanta to persuade him not to allow Coca-Cola to be sold in the USSR during the Olympics.”
Whole Different Game
“Radio is a medium of entertainment which permits millions of people to listen to the same joke at the same time, and yet remain lonesome”
-T.S. Eliot

It’s great when you discover an artist, I find Julia’s work both inspiring and beautiful. Julia’s latest exhibition at Castor + Pollux, Brighton, UK, features the Signals series. Created from Julia’s collection of ham radio cards from the 1920s - 1950s.

Thank you Julia.
Today marks the last day for the current layout of this site – the ‘Refresh’ is going live sometime tomorrow – what better way to go out with a bang than to feature some exclusive new work from Leeds’ finest.
