- The first Christmas dinner of the season 🍽️
- decentralised referee? 😢🇬🇧
- Alighieri Jewellery
We made this lovely film for a jeweller. The brand have just designed a hand of god emblem for the top of this years Christmas tree outside BBC television studio. It's to bring a beacon of light and hope to the holiday season. The brand is also donating a percentage of profit to the refuge charity - a worthy cause and great to see this festive period.
- A signal has been received 🌐📡
- I’ve started a diary in notes on my phone, I keep it brief and just the highlights and the main events from each day any key stories will be jotted down. Does anyone else do this?
- Pepsi, where’s my jet. I might have this on repeat for the winter. I love it. Will Netflix be making 4 part documentarys on the campaigns being ran today. NO!
- Nice quote from today at SLUSH, this one from Linnea co founder of Enride; aimed at founders… Enjoy the ride. You can’t control everything, focus on customers, team and aim for success.
- Early for @stani’s fireside chat in what was the building of the finish stock exchange.
- One of my favourite quotes of this week is “Behave honestly on social media” think that’s really key. Honest and Authentic are two great approaches right now.
- Helsinki, but first Stockholm. Finally a coffee and cinnamon bun. Is food first on anyone else’s mind when waiting for a flight or just me?
- If we would do a Lens meetup in London, how many of you would come? Collect this to signal your interest in attending
- @paris the dream team. Also undefeated. 👻
- My socks have just dried out from this mornings walk to the office. Right in time for my return. Love you London x
- On the tube does anyone else get the inner self want to start fresstyling inspirational messages, slightly Jordon Belfort, but with a hint of john Lennon?
- Gm - London in this weather is possibly my favourite time of the year. Long list today but a really fun and varied one. Avoiding the news & my Instagram grid of halloween content but welcoming reading magazines and books. I wish our leaders gave us daily updates like this 😂
- This years fancy dress halloween is a @letsraave.lens t shirt 👕 in my fav colour scheme.
- Mom! Ronnie is in The Economist! 👻

- Lina stores, soho. Best sandwich I’ve had this year.
- Now we’re talking.
- My 35mm film is back from the developer. This makes me happy.
- Nerding out on Orb while eating dinner with @timlove.lens priceless
- Imagine. BBC television Coldplay gig before it was redeveloped.
- I had my birthday on a long haul flight and now have a cold. The team got me a cake however. X
- Love the machines they create to make airplanes fly. It’s like they had me as a 7 year old on the design team. With no evolution over the years. Would pay in eth to have a spin in one of these though 🙂
- Me and the fireman @raave we both loved seeing Henri, the heart installation & the overall warm vibe, Ronnie was on good form also. Today back to central to hear ideas and thoughts, see an artist in the PM and find some more storys.
- "Youtube had to sell to Google because it couldn't cover the infrastructure costs" Is my key take out from today and I can see why, we've lost count of hard drives in the office and have never found the best solution for storing videos and raw rushes.. More thoughts and ideas again tomorrow. But right now we're charging the batteries for our time with Ronnie. @raave.lens
- I’ve joined Orb and finally feel at one with social.
- Have loved shooting A TRES MANOS the past few days.. They're just too cool. @thegallerydao.lens - Can't want to unveil tomorrow what they've been spraying/painting/drawing. #art #ai #streetart
- We've found a new story.
Yesterday in Bogota we visited design & street art trio A TRES MANOS studio. Within their charming studio we heard what drives them to create & how mixing new with old will form their latest mural in partnership with lens @ Dev Con this week.
- Chapter 1:
Important to know: Why I love the Rolling Stones.
It was summer and my dad bagged a couple tickets to see a stones concert in Hyde Park, London. I was 18. I'd been brought up on listening to them in the car since a child, but being immersed in their world for 2 hours was something else and is now my go to for ideas, story's and walks to the office.
The energy Mick, Keith, Ronnie and Charlie brought to the show was nothing I'd seen.. but it was the level of detail they went into within the show that I found really impressive.
They weren't just a band, they were something more. Cultural links within onscreen graphics, incredible motion visuals & a story running through the show right up to the crescendo. Mick conducted 50k people and had everyone in the park on one of the hottest days of the year watching every move and chanting every chorus. Keith was there for the hero riffs, Charlie the heart beat to the band and Ronnie to paint the set list before & bring a Terrier like energy to the stage.
I reference The Stones at work in the studio on a daily basis. They keep it reel, simple and use cultural links to connect with audiences on a deeper level. The riffs through to the stories they sing are on a platform of their own. But most importantly they know what they are and who they're not.
For me the ultimate story, band and brand.

- This feels like a nice place to hang out. I'm happy here.
Story's to follow.
