porch: ghost of Blogmass past

tomorrow is the start of blogmass 09 so here is a look back at blogmass 08

well i had 284 hit 12 comments (including my replies) so that see if we can beat that this year

but more importantly you got your hand on 8 free mp3 from Hunbakk and even got to see him in dressed like this

and in the nude

check out all of last years post here but remember the links to the mp3's have expired

addressing the imbalance 2:underground resistance

addressing the imbalance

my brother just pop round a point out that my blog has got a bit t-shirty lately so to try and addressing the imbalance here is a photo of a art work in it very early stage

this started of as a chair but then i got my hand on the and pulled it bits and stretched a roler-blind over it and tried to paint on it but it went a bit wrinkly so i decided if it wand to be a bit messy why try to change it mind so i slap some new paper on top and rip it to let the unfinished painting show though and that as far as it got but now i've post it up on here maybe inspiration may hit me and i'll finish it only time will tell.

Blogmass Non press release

Blogmass Non press release

usually the first step to promoting an event is a press release but with the newspapers losing there power to bloggers, Twitterers and social networkers. I have decided to write a non press release for all of you with your own voices in the hope you will use you power of mass communication to give me some free publicity so here it is my non press release

It's Blogmass

young talented sexy artist Ian Byford (well someone must think I'm talented and sexy) is embarking on a advent blog fest he calls blogmass from december 1st -25th Ian Byford will be bloging daily(unless my computer throws a wobbly) at www.ianbyfordart.bolgspot.com/in this period Ian Byford will be

• opening a new wed shop at www.zazzle.co.uk/ianbyfordart*
• launch new products (well you can't have a shop without stuff in it)
• posting new festive stories from his distopeian scrapbook
• making mp3 by Hunchbakk, from there sound art project available for free download

Ian Byford's Blogmass will show you why this super duper artist with overwhelming talent and charisma (maybe I went over the top there) is making a name for himself with his art work taking to the street in the form of wearable products and taking to the air in the form of music crafted by the talented and innovative hunchbakk. based on original art work by Ian Byford in there collaborative soundArt project.
