About Me

Up Close and Pixelated is the space of me, Jen, a multimedia designer and general party chick from sunny Scotland and for someone who could talk the arse off a donkey, Im struggling to think of stuff to write here! I fully intend to try out some cool graphics and illustrations and make this look as nice as possible but it's all about getting the finger out....this will do for now :)

My Interests

Just normal stuff like socialising and drinking and partying really. I like music and gigs and dancing and spending time with my lovely mates. I love shopping and fashion and shoes and beauty products and have an ever increasing ebay addiction. Im really into my work and learning new cool things. I'm into art, have a big thing for pop art, illustration and abstract styles. Love making crafty stuff with bits of paper and sticky backed plastic Blue Peter styleee. Cooking and most especially eating what I cook :)

I'd like to meet:

Like minded people who can have a laugh and not take life too seriously.

Music:

I like most music but am particularly digging 2 Many DJs, Groove Armada, Mr Scruff, Lemonjelly, the mighty Fun Lovin Criminals, Frattellis, Kasabain, Arctic Monkeys, Primal Scream, Avalanches, James Brown, Mylo, Audio Bullys, The White Stripes, Hot Chip and loads of other stuff that I cant really think of just now and all the fab mixes by my very talented DJ mates.

Movies:

Love british movies like Trainspotting, Shallow Grave, Twin Town, Ae Fond Kiss, Small Faces. Also, Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind, Shawshank Redemption, Memento are definitely on my list. And I love old movies like Breakfast at Tiffanys and To Kill a Mockingbird.

Television:

Dont watch a lot of telly. Love 24, Kath & Kim, Nip/Tuck, Peep Show.

Books:

Most books by Christopher Brookmyre, Alan Warner and Haruki Murakami. If I had to pick one of each it would be All Fun & Games Until Sombody Loses an Eye, Morvern Caller and Dance, Dance, Dance. I like early Irvine Welsh too, read Trainspotting about 5 times and would love to read the Marabou Stork Nightmares again.

Heroes:

My mate Deryck. He saved my life. Twice :)
