Seeping Through The Rafters
15 11 2009Latest illustration. Designed as an A3 poster. I’m currently not uploading the higher resolution version (the one you can see all the tiny details in), as I’m thinking of printing this one out at some point and submitting it for an art show.

Thunderface Games
9 10 2009I decided to make my games creation a little more legitimate, and so I’ve started to work towards getting a company identity up and running. I present to you,

I’ll also be releasing some information on my upcoming games project ‘KSTS’ in the coming weeks, so keep an eye on this blog, and my/thunderfaces twitter streams.

Post Brisbane Twestival
12 09 2009
So its all over!
Brisbane twestival was held last night at the Joshua Levi Galleries, and what a lovely night it was. Kudos to all at the @bnetwestival team.
Tea with Sloth was auctioned off for charity, and ended up selling for $200! Which is way more than I expected and is absolutey awesome.
I bought myself a rad TwS badge, which you can see pictured. All in all, a lovely night. Thanks all.

Twestival Art Auction : Tea with Sloth
7 09 2009I was asked by my friend Julia to draw a picture for the Brisbane Twestival Art Auction (Friday 11th September, Joshua Levi Galleries – Tickets Here). So I got to work and have drawn a special new twestival exclusive which I shall share with you all now, I call it “Tea with Sloth”.
The prints arrived back today and I couldn’t be more happy with them. Behold in all their blurry cameraphone-d goodness

Now in Print Form!
I’m taking them to the framing place just down the road after work today – and fingers crossed everything will be ready in time for Brisbane Twestival this friday. Those in brisbane, all are welcome to come to twestival. Tickets are on sale now, and it’s for charity folks.
So come to Brisbane Twestival, and you could own this one-of-a-kind artthing!
- Anthony.

Twitbirds : A Simple Twitter Search Visualiser
2 09 2009Those of you who follow me on twitter might have noticed I’ve been showing some pictures of weird fish-bird things lately. So I thought I might let you all have a look at the early version of my Twitter Search Visualiser.
Twitbirds
(http://tenfiftyfour.com/twitbirds/twitbirds_v1.swf)
‘Twitbirds’ is a very simple twitter search visualiser, originally designed for twitter-centric events (possibly projected onto a wall to encourage users to tweet about hashtagged events). It searches twitter for a keyword, finds the user that submitted it and creates a bird representing that user. Birds flock around the screen and symbolise a sort of ‘hive’ of activity revolving around the topic.
In the bottom left corner of the screen you’ll find three boxes. The first is the progress bar, which tells you how long until the next search refresh. The second is the search box (fairly self explanatory), and finally the status bar – which merely updates you on how many tweeters have been downloaded.
Currently, the program is set to refresh every 30 seconds, and will only return results that have been tweeted since the program was opened. Twitbirds searches for the keyword entered, find the user who submitted the tweet, then creates a bird-avatar for them. Birds will flock around the mouse cursor, and happily fly about the screen.
The more they tweet, the larger their bird gets. If a user doesn’t tweet within 3 minutes of their last tweet, their bird is removed in a puff of feathers.
Currently the app isn’t that optomised, and there is a variety of security sandbox issues ( files being hosted on different URLS cause issues with flash sometimes ) still to be resolved. However the version that is up now is fairly stable and should be fine for most of you to test! ( if you get an error, just ‘continue’ or ‘dismiss’ it, and see what happens…
Feel free to post comments or suggestions. Enjoy.
