Martin Parr, photographer acclaimed for observations of British life, dies aged 73 From sunbathers to Conservative clubs, Parr’s images were often in vivid colour with more than a dash of humour

Sad news. Parr was an inspiring figure. www.theguardian.com/artanddesign...

Especially irritating with complex programs when you know what you want to achieve, but you don't know how *this specific program* implements it. I just want to know what button to click in After Effects!

Sengoku-era cavalry trample their way over fallen infantrymen with looming silhouette of castle gates and an ominous sky behind.

Finally saw Kurosawa’s “Ran” (1985) last night. I’ve been holding off until I could see it in the cinema, and wow, was it worth it. A grand, pessimistic, and chillingly beautiful piece of painting with light.

Outside Recicletta’s building in Cuenca. Liam holds a mountain bike over his head with one hand and makes a V fit victory with the other. Next to him are Svitlana Topor and Anthony Alleyne.

Returning the bike we borrowed for the #danny-boy-patches-it-up pitch to the amazing folks army Recicletta San Anton in Cuenca. They recycle bike components into whole bikes for anyone who wants one, including donating bikes to folks in refugee camps in overseas Spanish territories. 💖

Pagoda at Toshogu Shrine, Ueno Park, Tokyo. In the foreground is a row of four ishi-doro stone lanterns that lead the eye diagonally towards a four-storey pagoda.

Pagoda at Toshogu Shrine, Ueno Park, Tokyo. In the foreground is a row of four ishi-doro stone lanterns that lead the eye diagonally towards a four-storey pagoda.

The Asahi headquarters in Tokyo. A golden-coloured slab-sided tower about 23 storeys tall with a silvery top three floors that are supposed to resemble the head on a perfectly poured beer. To the left of the tall tower, a smaller black building has an irregularly shaped golden squiggle on top, which from this angle looks like a pear, but which from other angles looks like a sperm or a turd. It was designed by Philippe Starck. Reflected in the left side of the tower is the Tokyo Skytree, Tokyo's tallest building.

Some tall things I saw in Tokyo. Pagoda at Toshogu Shrine in Ueno Park, and the headquarters of the Asahi brewing company with the Tokyo Skytree reflected in the northern face of the tower. The golden blob on the shorter building was designed by Philippe Starck.

Silhouette of a young man holding a guitar over his head on a beach during a yellowy-orange sunset. His legs are set wide apart and he is facing the camera, looking like he might do the guitar an injury. Someone has drawn the outline of a heart in the sand in front of him. Above his head, the words "Danny Boy Patches It Up!" are presented on cut-up pieces of black tape. At the top left of the image there's the logo of the Conecta TV market and in the bottom right some text reads "a musical romantic road trip buddy comedy on bikes from MYGOSH.co"

This time next week I'll be at the Conecta Fiction & Entertainment market in Cuenca, Spain, pitching a half-hour comedy series I've dreamed up alongside co-writer Svitlana T. and producer Lamar Hawkins of MYGOSH.co

I don’t know who to share this with, so I’ll share it with whoever sees my skeets: Massive Attack backing up Liz Fraser as she sings Song to the Siren from This Mortal Coil’s 1983 album It’ll End In Tears isn’t just a heart in the mouth moment, it’s a deeply respectful act of homage. 💗💗💗

To mark VE day, I am posting an old folder of anti-fascist posters from the Spanish Civil War.

I originally started collecting these to try and choose an image for my book cover, and kept going because they're objectively awesome. Lost many in the last laptop migration, but the best remain...
