Richard Gallon: mydeas

I'm an interactive / user experience designer, based in London. I also like tapes. A lot.

Here are some ideas that I wish to share: some things old, some things new, some things borrowed and some things blue.

Richard Gallon: mydeas

Something borrowed

Well, sort of borrowed, as was actually given to me. Inside front cover of a hardbound ledger. Suspect the re-order number is no longer valid. More’s the pity.

Something new: Art Mapping

The first piece of new work, and first post, for quite a while. I took part in the Tate’s two-day Art Mapping workshop, and have now created a page to put together all of the recordings that I made on my rainy 1.5 hour journey around Pimlico. All work was tagged & uploaded to Posterous at the time it was made (connection permitting), and you can see the collated results and a bit of the backstory here.

No art at any time

Something old:

With the slew of ‘cassette-only’ release that seem to be popping-up everywhere at the moment, I felt it was a good time to re-post these.

Funkturm and Friends. 60 minute mixtapes, on cassette. Hand packaged.
These 60 minute mixtapes, recorded on cassette, are packaged in handmade covers, created from re-purposed vintage vinyl sleeves.

Something borrowed

Although I actually bought this collection from a stall in Brick Lane. Am assuming that ‘Blankpool’ is a typo / variant of Blackpool?

Something new (-ish):

It’s been a while since I posted. I now have a half-share on a shiny guillotine, so will be producing lots of books with neat edges as soon as I get the chance. Here is shot of some initial tests, notebooks that fit into cassette boxes, made from recycled envelopes & tape covers.
