Animation Big-Ups Comedy Development Music The Precinct June 28, 2009June 28, 2009 by David

The new Precinct project

First, something unrelated: in case you didn’t know, Tony Martin and guest writer Justin Heazlewood both have new writing on The Scrivener’s Fancy, a website which appears to have popped up out of nowhere to make me happy.

Big-Ups Comedy Twaddle April 9, 2009April 9, 2009 by David

I like comedy

The other night we saw Matthew Keneally and Josie Long at the Comedy Festival. They were both fun, but Josie Long gets the edge over, being that she’s COMPLETELY ADORABLE, made us laugh ’til it hurt AND she makes her own zines and hands them out to audience members. A friend of mine told me …

David Blumenstein

I’m a service designer, cartoonist and co-founder of Squishface Studio. I’ve done comics for The Guardian, Crikey and Australian MAD. Currently also deputy president of the Australian Cartoonists Association.

I usually write about things that shit me off, from bad workplaces (The Bret Braddock Adventures) to pick-up artists (#takedown) to white supremacist trolls (The Internet’s Most Trolled Cartoonist).

I’m working on graphic novels called Sciensatics (about cultists) and Free Money, Please (about wealth and passive income).

Sarah Howell

I regularly collaborate with my wife, Sarah Howell.
