Start the day with a new collage. This one came into being in 2 hours – there's still magic! It's about (who would have thought it?) a person from the past, and an ascension. Scan and upload will follow later, after my weekly walk to the laundrette. During assembling and now, after having finished work, I listened and am listening to this nifty little mood piece: https://zeromoon.bandcamp.com/track/03-porosity-33

About this time 6 years ago, my paper collages were published in magazines for the first time, in "Oltre Collage" #2 (Milano) and Roberto Segate's "Grim" #14 (Swansea), with 2 more appearances in Grim to follow. Sadly, due to Herr Segate's illness, Grim is history now. Here's to times gone by with an illustration by the editor himself dating back to our first collaboration.
