Apologies for not updating sooner. It’s been quiet on the music front here in Studio 813 the last couple of months, due to broken equipment and what not.
I have been updating the photoblog fairly frequently though.
Not to mention posting photos to Twitpic and, just this last week, starting a Blipfoto Journal. (Which I just realised, I have not updated today! D’oh!)

Anywho, while I have nothing new to report music-wise just yet (I am working on stuff though), I thought I’d update anyway to
a) let the world know I’ve not forgotten this site and
b) share with you this awesome animation.

I already shared it via Twitter, but I’m sharing it again because it’s great.
The official site appears to be logorama-themovie.com but it wasn’t loading when I wrote this.
Maybe it works now though eh?

I’ll try not to wait so long before the next update.
I’ll also try and finish the site revamp too.

This is the first in what I hope will be series of posts showcasing some of my favourite architecture from around the world.
I figured I’d hit the ground running by starting the series with what is, quite possibly, my favourite house anywhere in the world.

I bring you… The Bubble House.

Situated near Cannes in the South of France, this spectacular house was the creation of Finnish architect Antti Lovag, but is probably more commonly associated with it’s famous owner, the legendary fashion designer Pierre Cardin.
Lovag originally started building the house in 1975 for a wealthy industrialist who sadly died before it’s completion. In the early 80’s, Cardin was searching the Cote D’Azure for a new summer home that suited his avant garde sensibilities. He came across the construction site and rest, as they say, is history.

For more information about the house try these.
