hipgnosis
Now I'm like OBSESSED with finding out more about Hipgnosis. All the books I can find seem to be out of print. I can't even find out why the book is called "walk away rene". I found one of the founder's (Storm Thorgerson) websites. Here's a little thing he wrote about a Led Zeppelin cover that used to fascinate me. Now that I tested the link (like a real scientist) I see that the website is set up so you can't go directly. If you really care, go to "anecdotes", then "golden oldies" and then click on the Led Zep "presence" cover. And if you do all that you have wayyy too much time on your hands. Can there be any designers more responsible for the art look of the 80's than these guys? It's crazy.

There's a bit on Hipnogis in Nick Mason's book on Pink Floyd. Storm did the cover.
I can't fucking spell it but you know what I mean.
heckasac,
do you know if there are photos of the actual puppet towne? i was trying to explain it to my friend and wished I could show him a photo because you have to see it to believe it. I looked at the link from the show and no dice.

Does anybody have flickr puppet towne photos? of course you could just wait and see the puppet movie when it comes out. what's the progress on that, anyways?
progress report: the director was supposed to get the repaired camera back this week.
