Hello Hipsters! Welcome to the blog for Hipsters we met and liked. If your reading this then you are most likely a hipster that one of us met and liked. And if not, then get out of here!

We joke.

Stay and have a gander. Feel really cool by looking at all the cool photographs we're gonna be using in our uber cool show at the end of the year, which you are part of! So super thanks, or in true hipster fashion, "whatev's, we're over it".

We'll be using this blog for all of us to collectively get a feel for how the piece will be shaping up through the photographs that are being submitted and it's a great way for all of us to keep it touch. This show will be as much ours as it will be yours. 

To get the ball rolling, here is what our beautiful hipster Ruth Smith has contributed with the following text to go with it:

This was taken in Sanya, China during one the big event days. I operate the sound desk/music for the day and there were huge crowds all around the barriers,...so much so that I had to reinforce the barriers with sandbags and my pathetic attempt with rope. 
This boy stood in the gap for the two hours of the event, watching intently and never smiling, looked kind of sad all the time. 
Just as I was playing the Team Sanya (boat) song (Eye of the Tiger - Since they have a Chinese crew member on board called Tiger) as they were docking out to sail to Auckand, the barrier gave way and a bucket full of Chinese folk fell in towards the sound desk, pulling cables and killing the sound throughout the whole village. 
Mayhem ensued with all the event staff and local electricians frantically trying to get the cables back in. And after it was all sorted and all the boats had docked out I turned around to see a little wry smile on this fellas face. 




Now it's your turn! Go for it!
