Yup, just one more Carbon & Chemicals show to go, and there’s just one week to go until that very night!

It’s taking place at Workshop store in Bristol, next Friday, the 4th April. It opens at 6pm and goes on until 9pm.

Workshop is located at 1-2 Perry Road, Bristol, BS1 5BQ (Opposite Zero Degrees, just down the road from 5050)

They’ll be the boards, screenprints and lomo photography so there’s going to be plenty to feast your eyes on - come on down tocheck it all out and end the ‘tour’ with us at the lovely chilled place that is Workshop!

Hope to see you there!

Friday nights opening of the Carbon & Chemicals show in Nottingham was fantastic, we had a great turn out and it all went off without a hitch (despite a flood during the set-up!)

We’d like to thank everyone who came to check out the show and everyone involved in the whole thing, as it wouldnt be possible without you!

Here’s a few select snaps of the night but you can see all the photo’s in our Flickr pool @ www.flickr.com/groups/xyncarbonchemicals/pool/, on SPT’s blog, on Boardroom Daves blog, my blog and a couple of videos on Pones Vimeo

The show is up until the end of this week so if you couldnt make it down on the night, be sure to check it out this week!

That’s right folks, just one day to go until the Nottingham show! Im currently sitting in my room in Bristol, surrounded by artwork and stuff to take back, as in an hours time I make the journey to Notts to meet up with Waste, Klingatron & Pone to start hanging the work!

I really hope you can make it down, we’re going to be working as hard as we can to put on a great show - so from the work on the walls to the live art, you can be sure we’re giving it our all!

The goodie bags are being prepped too, I’ve burnt off just 10 copies of the hand-made / super8 film by Robbie Keast & Danny Wainwright onto DVD and popped them in a random selection of goodie bags, and Ive also put an all-black one-of-two production sample of my vinyl toy ‘Droplet‘ in one random bag too!! (I only received 2 black samples, the first prototypes I ever got to see so it’s pretty special!)

If that isn’t enough to entice you, well then I guess I’d better mention the free drinks then hadn’t i… They’ll be beer & wine available at the show* and then if you’re carrying on to the Orange Tree with us for the after party, show off your xynthetic logo hand-stamp and you’ll get another free drink or two** plus happy-hour price cocktails!

It’s bank holiday Friday, what else are you going to do with your night?

That’s just, just 7 days remaining until the 2nd installment of the Carbon & Chemicals trilogy!! Things are heating up now, ‘to do’ lists are getting longer, feelings of panic are getting stronger, excitement is building… you get where we’re going with this!

Not only are we displaying the work we’ve already created (which consists of painted boards, screenprints, photography and a projection), we’re busy adding MORE things for you to peruse… more boards, more prints, more photos!

So we’ve established there’s more work for you to see, but that isn’t the end of it!

To tickle your earholes we’ve got beats supremo ED209 on the ones & two’s, providing the soundtrack for the evening and to titillate your eyeballs we’ve got live art from myself, WASTE, Klingatron, Pone AND Mr Jago painting prints for you there and then, which will be available to purchase as soon as he’s finished them, how’s that for a slice of fried gold!?

We’ve got free Goodie Bags for the first 30 people that come and grab them - packed with stickers, badges and stuff you need in your life! Don’t worry if you miss out though, we’ll all have some Xyn badges to dish out to you, so just ask us for one!

All in all we’re working really hard to make this Nottingham show as enjoyable as possible so if you’re around, please do come down and check it out! Here’s the details…

Feeble, word!

That’s right folks, just 2 weeks to go now until the 2nd Carbon & Chemicals show in Nottingham!!

We’re all real busy creating new, fresh pieces of work to add to what we’ve already got, so there’s going to be plenty to feast your eyes on!

So, to recap, there’s going to be boards, prints & lomo photography, plus a hand-created animation by Robbie Keast and a Super8 film by Danny Wainwright. They’ll be 30 free goodie bags to give away to the first people that snag them, oh yeah, and free drinks too!!

As if that wasn’t enough, we’ve got mr ED209 on the decks providing the musical delights all night and a spot of live art from us that’ll be there (Looking like WASTE, Pone, Klingatron, Mr Jago, maybe Danny Wainwright and then myself).

Then, once you’ve had enough art, we’ve got an official after party at The Orange tree in Notts City Centre, where you’ll get cheap drinks when you show your Xynthetic stamp on your hand (come see us to get yours!)

So let’s make a night of it shall we!? Add Friday March 21st to your diaries! The show is on 6 - 10pm and then we’ll go Orange Tree afterwards, hope to see you there!

Just thought I’d blog some of these sweet photo’s of Mr Sam Taylor because, put simply, he kills it.
