Birmingham Words tells us about a new online route planner for Brum- expect that this one is for people using Shanks’ Pony. (Cheers Brum Blog) A big ol’ snake at the Nature Centre is about to make tiny snakes come out of it’s stomach, eek!, bbc.co.uk/birmingham has a webcam. (via up yer Brum) Photographer Gary Knight doesn’t like Selfridges, and calls it “another bloated and sad inner-city blemish” while photographing it for the beeb’s Britain In Pictures. The show also has a flickr based photo compo, why not flood it with pics of Brum? The exhibition at Gas Hall at the moment is well worth a looksee. How to Improve the World, 60 Years of British Art. I popped in today – don’t forget to have a look round the back.
JB Birmingham Street Atlas : Originally uploaded by bounder. Roads, like music, crystallize memories. Here are some roads that make me remember. Why not make your own ‘street atlas’? See it in all it’s glory here I’m not saying why, or where they are – you can guess if you like. They are all in Brum tho’, I had to make a cut off somewhere and it might leave room for a follow-up that isn’t just Brum. It was actually quite an emotional experience in a couple of places (not to mention dangerous when standing in the midlle of the Pershore Rd to get ‘just the right angle’). See it as a flickr set. It’d be great if people made their own and we eventually got a shot of every road in Birmingham!
