Debbie Hill
UK illustrator Debbie Hill recently graduated with a first-class degree in graphic communication. Her work is ‘quite process driven. I like to experiment with using a range of techniques and materials. I often try and find an illustrative process for each brief that really reflects the subject matter. For example, I used paper as my sole material to create an animation about origami and have created imagery for a book about button phobia using actual buttons and embroidery on fabric’. Her piece – ‘Origami’ – has been selected for a student illustrator prize in the 2006 V&A Illustration Awards. [see also Janey]

This website hosts a nice collection of quirky, sometimes mind-boggling, sculptures from around the world. There’s a certain Dali-esque feel to a lot of them – those surreal, dreamy hallucinations turned into a warped reality. I’ve always been a sucker for art that really catches you out for a few seconds, and these certainly do that.

Kirk brings Molly to meet his family for a pool party but she doesn’t have her swim suit. Kirk, an average Joe, can’t believe his luck when gorgeous babe Molly falls for him even though he’s the first to admit She’s Out of My League. In cinemas April 1.
Here’s another commercial building, and no doubt a nice one too. But just another commercial building. Yet there is something different here and it’s in the materials used. The cladding is a fibre-reinforced polymer, or a FRP, and has a finish similar to that of a car. Read more
Austin band The Low Lows are one of my most prized finds of the year so far. It’s introspective music — staggered harmonies delivered by a distant, agonised voice that filters through a wall of tranquil guitar distortion and measured drumming. Every instrument carries a powerful emotion, sometimes keeping their distance from one another, floating up and around the airwaves, and other times colliding and crashing back to earth.
