Geeks In Space #1
Geeks In Space is a single-page B&W comic series I started in 2004 and continue on and off. Mostly off. Let's see – of the 36 strips done so far, I did seven in 2004, ten in 2005, three in 2006, two in 2007, one in 2008, twelve in 2009 and one in 2010.
The entire lot used to be on my nonesuchdesign.com site (which goes offline forever on June 16 – just a heads-up). I'm now going to run them all on this blog, starting from the very first one. Hang in there. It gets better as it goes on. I have to add that the strip is intended for readers with a certain level of maturity. Consider yourself warned!

X
I've spent the last 16 days in Sydney, the longest trip there I have had so far. The following is a pictorial account of some of the highlights (that I had a camera in hand for). These are all digital shots; Lomographs to follow in a later post.
The Harbour Bridge on New Year's Eve. The theme for the night was 'Make Your Mark', and so the motif on the bridge was a giant X. It also changed to a smiley face, a hand, a tick and a peace sign, but I liked X best, as a theme for 2011.
This, oddly enough, is the underside of the Harbour Bridge. I took the photo lying on the lawn underneath, looking up.

I'm In Sydney
Happy New Year! I'm here in Sydney, and as expected, the city put on a massive fireworks show. 7500 kilograms of them. One and a half million people turned out to see it. We waited twelve and a half hours having staked out our position on a grassy patch close to the Harbour Bridge. Well worth the wait I'd say. In the next post I'll upload some photos I took, but unfortunately, I won't be able to upload the atmosphere of the night. Especially the way you think the sky is going to crack open with all that noise.
Aside from the festivities of 1/1/11, other things are happening which I hope to capture on film and get it uploaded. I managed to shoot a whole roll of film using the Lomo camera of just long exposure shots of fireworks. I managed to do two of these on New Year's Day last year and they turned out pretty good, so this time I decided to blow a whole roll on it. Why not?
Anyway, Sydney's awesome and I hope the start of 2011 was just as spectacular in your city. But it probably wasn't.
