Slinkachu is a street artist who takes microscopic painted people and creates scenes with them on the streets of London. I particularly like the man that has shot the bee, and the stags on the street corner with the cigarette butts.

I am always intrigued by scale and what happens when you start to mess around with it.

Slinkachu has a book of these photographs which recently came out called "Little People in the City". If you are in London check out his site.

There was a book launch on the 31st August at Cosh Gallery on Berwick street where they did a treasure hunt. When you registered, you were given clues and had to find four of Slinkachu artworks around London. Sounds like quite a funny and mad day. Wish I was there...

I don't often check back on the little people once I have placed them on the street. If i do, i usually find that they have long gone. The cash machine installation however was intact the last time I saw it, a few months after it was placed. I checked again recently, but the little man was gone. The cash machine was still there though, although it looks a bit vandalised now. I decided to put a new little person down and see how long she lasts...

LOL @ earwax. I have never been a big fan of Pioneer headphones. The last Pioneer headphones i purchased were the SE-NC70S and in about three months the right side died out and the battery life was crap. What I do like about pioneer is the sound q...

Well I have the 2006 80 GB classic & the 32GB iPod touch both sound qualities are great but I must agree about the classic being better. I've been getting alot positive feedback about Sennheiser so I'll give it a shot. Thanks for the info!
