“Sod the wine, I want to suck on the writing. This man White is an instinctive writer, bloody rare to find one who actually pulls it off, as in still gets a meaning across with concision. Sharp arbitrage of speed and risk, closest thing I can think of to Cicero’s ‘motus continuum animi.’

Probably takes a drink or two to connect like that: he literally paints his senses on the page.”

BIKINI SHADES DREAMING LOGOCO

One night in the gale I was kept awake by a recurring worry about the placement of a few triangles. They woke me all night with their shuffling about, going from this starter to this

and bigger to eventually grow some totemic polemic to this

which eventually of course fell backwards to become a logo for Alcohol Tobacco and Firearms which we don't even have in Australia but I'd heard about on the BBC as I was falling asleep ... any really big agencies need a loco logo? See my people ... all images, nightmares etc. by Philip White ... we could probly do straighter outfits than ATF
