Photos of my housemate, Kris's Roland 'Space Echo' machine. I tried explaining how this works to someone and failed miserably. It makes a nice noise.

Going to Dan of 'Cyril Snear' (great band).

Manchester 10k Run

I'm running this event in aid of local Cancer Research hospital, The Christie. It's the largest of it's kind in Europe and would greatly benefit from your donations.

Please sponsor me at JustGiving

Much appreciated,

I had a photo shoot with a trumpet, it was more difficult than I though, there are reflections to deal with which made lighting hard and it's quite long so focus was an issue. Another shot is on my 365 page.

A collage I made a few years ago from fliers and postcards. It represents moving from the seaside on the south coast to a city in the north near the lakes.

Envelope F

These are taking longer to make than the 1-10 series because a: I'm taking more care over them and b: I'm using slightly larger envelopes.

This one is going to Robin in Lemont, USA.

Live at Deaf Institute, Manchester on 02/02/10... a forgotten photo from the gig where they supported Thao and The Get Down Stay Down. Great night... their single 'Hands and Knees' was posted here a few days ago if you're interested (as featured on BBC 6music).

Defect

I was looking through some of my animations for a show, I quite liked this one apart from a section of music in the middle. It was made from a large number of colour treated long exposure photos, taken on a bus.



The rest of my animations are HERE

Floating Points - Love Me Like This (Nonsense Dub)

Far from nonsense. I can't wait for the debut album.

Envelopes on my website

I'm compiling the envelopes that I've sent out, on a new page on my website peterrea.com

One of a set of photographs taken during the Matthew Halsall sextet live gig at Vortex Jazz Bar in London. Matthew Halsall on trumpet, Nat Birchall on saxaphones, Nick Blacka on bass, Adam Fairhall on piano, Rachael Gladwin on harp and Gaz Hughes on the drums. It was an amazing gig.

My bike was repaired yesterday, I thought I'd photograph this before it got caked in mud and oil again.

Another experiment with lighting. This is an above view of a clay house candle holder. The flame shines out of the chimney and side windows.

A lighting experiment with wood, rope and cobwebs. This is part of an artists book that I made 4 years ago, based on the Tom Waits tune 'Don't Go Into The Barn'. The book resembled barn doors and contained sinister objects, providing clues to the meaning of the piece. A film is hidden in a compartment, with photograms, containing an animation that goes with the song.
