about

Think of this as a digital scrap-book - music, videos, pictures and words from the final months of FaceOmeter's London adventure. In here we see the debut of the Dapper Swindler's new recording studio; the joys of the empty, midnight Jubilee line; the unveiling of the Cutty Sark and the Air Line cable cars; and the further wanderings of the mysterious Monkey Horses. A mixed-media explosion of nostalgia and art, yours for a feeble brace of pounds!
