The obvious place is directly above the table, but whilst climbing up and down, to and from your table top might be great exercise, it’s time consuming, potentially damaging to your furniture and props, and not great from a Health and Safety perspective. In this tutorial, I’m going to show you how I approached the challenge, with the help of two very useful JOBY products: the GripTight Gorilla Pod Stand and the GripTight Micro Stand.…

My partner’s father and grandfather were magicians and a couple of years ago, we inherited their magic books. They are a treasure trove of vintage imagery and typography and I’ve been thinking of all the ways I might integrate them into artworks. One idea is a set of surreal postcards.
