20th - january 2009

on the 20th of every month, the fine folk at cabinet pin encourage musicians to write and record an song/piece of music, complete in one day without any forethought or post-editing. all the artists then send their contributions in and they are compiled onto a limited edition cd-r. the only way to get a copy of it is to be a contributor. it's an excellent way to stimulate musical creativity. the artwork is also great and is done by a rotating roster of folk. i've had the honour of doing the artwork for a couple of these now - the latest being january 2009. i basically took some pages out of an old ubd sydney street directory, stuck them to some a4 pages for extra thickness, than ran those through a photocopier which printed the text in black. i then folded and sewed them up and this is the end result.
