Love it when people share these kinds of "behind the scenes" views of their work, showing that we're all just trying to figure things out as we go, often improvising, and making good use of shortcuts to get good results.

Artists Share Broken 3D Models That Look Good on Camera

Floating heads, spaghettified bodies, arms growing from legs, and more.

@[email protected] If you feel up for it please do and say hello! There's definitely something going around at the moment as well.

For any London fans of music and lunchtime pints, I'm DJing at a record fair in Hackney Brewery in Blackhorse Road tomorrow at 1pm.

Come along, have a drink, buy some records, and listen to me desperately try not to inch towards 180bpm.

@JonGretar I haven't, but I'll add it to the list.
@knotnicky Barbarian was another great watch from last year. I'll check out What Keeps You Alive and Triangle.

After 2 crap horror films (The Pope's Exorcist and 13 Ghosts) I need some good new recommendations.

Hereditary was my best horror film last year, so that's already out.

I wrote about my favourite Irish language hip-hop act and being from Belfast. https://www.tommyp.org/blog/kneecap-and-the-importance-of-stories

Maybe I'm too jaded from living in London but we live on a dead end road in a quiet area and last night someone banged on the door covered in blood and my first thought was that it was definitely a scam.

Turned out it wasn't and the person helping him had brought him to the wrong house.
