[matilda] 0742 WHAT ARE THAY UPTO?

[19896 19896]

0742 has documented the techno-economic change in the omnipresent layers of 
Sheffield's past all reformation leaves a ghost of yesterday he would tell 
you. He takes images of the urban paranoia he simply explains as the 
metropolis of Sheffield. With this he also take images of nature based in 
inner-city landscapes and out the place bucolic landscapes along with empty 
abandoned and non-abandoned buildings. 0742 has created an archive 0f 3000 
plus images here pretentious artist dot com

He stopped work there in November 2004 (the dots are links) as he felt it 
was becoming rather imposing. He positions this archive as a counterpoint of 
tactical interventions by often-symbolic occupations of your MIND. His work 
now continues at pretentious artist dot com Now working on another project 
using a old vidio camera of which he plans to put onto a CD and give out for 
FREE. Disposable propaganda for a Disposable Age. Meantime he has completed 
work single35mm. We can only watch with interest at his next tactical 
intervention. No doubt it will make you THINK and feel a little cold. But 
then that's his aim.

At the age of 40. 0742 has been witness to grand projects of urban 
regeneration and neglect. He was a part of the now demolished Kelvin, which 
become Europe's biggest housing estate following the demolition of Hyde 
Park. He lived there as a child. Played and sniffed glue in the former 
Infirmary Hospital. Where as 13 year old he walked and part dragged a 
relative from Harcourt Road off their head due to a smack overdose. Before 
he got to the hospital, he watched her die. He was also a part of the under 
culture of Hyde Park. It was at the age 0f 20 scoreing smack from this vast 
estate. He watched parts demolished other refurbished in 1992 following the 
world Students Games.

This also transformed his birthplace of Attercliffe Common. He has watched 
Sheffield become what it has become today. There is a real ease in his work. 
He published propaganda for over 9 years with a friend. Which has leaded him 
into the world of Digital images. Hand coded Html and in the recent past, he 
has introduced himself to CSS. He will no doubt will be placing these skills 
into Edition 2 of his http project pretentious artist dot com

We can no doubt expect 0742 or his other ego of Freak Peace to create more 
stunning images both still and animated. There is little doubt he has found 
a path of self-expression via his work. The future might be a little unknown 
and un-expected. Likewise, the work of 0742 aka freak peace is just the 
same. We guess he plays upon this fact. You can e-mail him at 
worldwarfreeatriseupdot Finally there is someone documenting the ever 
changing moods of Sheffield. Of all we can do is say Thank You and hope the 
work of 0742 or is that 19896 goes on.
