Now and Then/
Shit Birthday is currently in development, it dawned on me the other day that anyone visiting the site will be greeted with a bit of confusion if anything, (and that and half the time the site explodes because I'll change something in the CSS which causes every singe post to load and trash your browser) but lets not go into that...
Shit Birthday is a collaborative idea thought up by Jamie Harrington, Francis Qureshi and Thomas Shannon, our goals are constantly changing, but our main means of this website consist of creating a new media publication and blog within art and design, able to communicate through out the internets in all ways possible.
Creatives/
We want to help out creatives of all disciplines, as well just posting work we find that interests us. Our future prospects include the feature to submit work for consideration, interaction through comments and links within social networking services.
Shit birthday will also become the home of our portfolios, collaborative and individual, our roles as curators are only small aspect of what we wish todo.
Print and Distribution/
As well as being an online publication, we still have a great interest in the physicality of print and books, thus we plan on creating various prototype catalogues, in the form of small fanzines, large format photo books and annual catalogues.
Feeds, Articles and Junk/
As of now we are looking at creating three or so feeds, each with the ability to be filtered with search and tags. They consist of featured artists work, articles written by ourselves or guest contributors and a quick-fire tumbl style blog of things we love. These content aspects will be constantly evolving, until we settle down on what we want, which will probably be never.
Design/
As Artists, Designers, whatever you want to call us, we are conscious of what things look like. Horizonatlalism is the way forward, in terms of an infinite canvas, for centuries the scroll has been read in columns laid out horizontally. The computer has come a long way since its birth of a vertical command line interface, it's about time it was turned on its side.
