Imposing pages for saddle-stitched zines and mockups is usually a clunky chore. So I built The Zine Machine: a free browser tool that turns regular PDFs into 2-up printer spreads ready for double-sided printing, folding, and stapling! 📖✂️

I just finished making Spiro-Zen! Part retro web toy, part professional vector generator. 🌀 If you remember playing with that plastic cog wheels drawing toy, you're going to love this.

Graphic identities are SO important to companies. It's fascinating to see how they evolve. For example, look at Microsoft: in 1975 THIS is how it began – yeah baby! 😆 I once wrote a whole thing about where it went from there. You might enjoy it: thatkeith.com/articles/mic...

Fairport Convention's Cropredy Festival 2025 has officially kicked off. It's a sold-out festival and the weather is rather lovely too! #fairportconvention #cropredyfestival

Presidential pardons should not be a thing. Everyone should have access to sentencing reviews, but one man dismissing the determined judgement of a whole court process? That's banana republic stuff, it strangles the faith in our judicial system that is essential for a functioning democratic society.

Park by beaches west of Chania, Crete. Long exposure with the iPhone held against a tree – with ants running over the phone, my hand, and over my arm. 😁

Like comedy, photography is about... timing. Sun setting behind the (relatively new, 18th century) lighthouse in Chania harbour, in Crete. No filter, just positioning.

It is now reasonable to think the Stars and Stripes could become irredeemably linked with fascism, just as the Hindu swastika, for millennia a symbol for peace, is now hopelessly linked with fascism and nazis.

This is the official White house twitter/X account saying 'long live King Trump.' We are still (just) within the first month of Trump's disastrous presidency and the US is overthrowing itself, live, right now. If dramatic action isn't taken fast this will be the literal end of American democracy.

We're not even four weeks since Trump took office and we're at this point already. (Yes, this is a confirmed quote from Trump on Truth Social just today, Feb 15 2025.) Anyone privileged enough to be able to do it, be poised to take a long tour outside the US.

Today is Blue Monday, the most depressing day of the year. This year it's doubly dark; a full-on blue-black. True dawn won't be for four years – and when that comes, who knows what devastation we'll be facing.

Actually it's pretty busy! From Statista: "In the fiscal year of 2022, over 14,200 ships passed through the Panama Canal. This represents the highest ship traffic in the observed period."

I talk about things I do on social media – except when there's an NDA of course. I can say this much: I'm part of an insanely creative theatrical production in London's West End, and it just got a 5 star review in The Times: "One of the best artistic experiences of my life" – v proud to be in it!

Connie is a disgrace. She's trying to steal milk, but fortunately (a) her face is too wide, and (b) it's finished. I know, I know: lactose intolerance. I keep telling her! 😂

Actually it's really not that much like US/Canada! Britain, the British Isles, the UK, as the chart shows it's complicated, but it's essentially a country made from countries: England, Scotland Wales and Northern Ireland. The latter was created in 1921, with the Irish Free State forming the South.
