Thank you to @d_and_ad @newblood_dandad for the invitation to be a judge for War Child x Secret 7". I’ll always look fondly on Secret 7" — it gave me the opportunity to experiment with lenticular printing for the first time. Around 15 years ago (maybe more?), @orlandoweeks and I both submitted sleeves featuring lenticular images of our eyes, designed to avoid eye contact when viewed. Since then, I’ve gone on to create lenticular vinyl for @the_mura_masa , @anotr.music and @runthejewels , to name a few. Also thanks to my wife @stephaniehaughton for the ongoing help with the vinyl filming . . . #dandad #newblood26 #dandadnewblood #secret7 #warchild

I had the pleasure of speaking at Salford University last week. Was really inspiring meeting the hugely talented @salfordgraphics students. I spoke about a career in music, my work with @undercard.studio and all the interesting people you get to meet along the way. A big thank you to @cutshapemake for inviting me and @pkbcollection for taking the great photos. . . #Salford #Lecture #Manchester #music

DLX vinyl for the incredible @wetlegband . This is a 16 step lenticular with a right and left animation. The 16 steps gives the illusion of depth and dimension and the right and left is Rhian smiling (and not). A big thanks to @_samuelwilliams and the production department @dominorecordco as this took a lot of samples to get it right. The cover was shot by @irisluzzzz (go to her page for full credits) thank you also to @asia.szyczewska and @itgirl.c00l for getting us on board. . . . #wetleg #wetlegband #moisturizer #vinyl #lenticular vinyl
