Adam Robertson
Adam Robertson, a textile and graphic designer from Norwich, makes works using systems that express data as patterns. With a background in design, the focus of his works carry a practical edge to go with the theory. Recently, he invented a new way to interpret time. “I have designed and made an application that express time as series of coloured concentric circles. With this piece, I wanted to create something that was visually exciting and constantly changing pattern, while still being an useable clock.” To check out his TimeVisual Clock for android, click here.

Summer Art Fridays: Photographer Cheyne Gallarde
With the help of his studio, Firebird Photography, Hawaii-based photographer Cheyne Gallarde creates poppy fashion shoots and elegantly retro photographs that bring to mind decades long past. That all-is-good vibe, plus the boundless sunshine of the photo above, is why we chose him for Summer Fridays this week.
Describe the piece you submitted to Summer Fridays.
This was a fashion editorial for the vintage boutique CLOTH, which carried unique re-thrifted vintage items. The store itself no longer exists, but the photo (which has appeared in several magazines since then) has become very iconic and synonymous with me.
