Here is my attempt of photoshop! I used the shapes of items i found in this geocache and moved them  about.

scanned in a my drawing...

Hours later.....

I would like to do a screen print of this design in maybe 4 colours. 

Repeat. Repeat!

Ideas for digital prints. - Would like to try different colourways.

Cylinder

The secret loch

Lots of calling cards left in this cache. Would be a good idea to promote blog!

Swap!

Loch Morlich

Can you spot it?

Tricky!

Sometime they are very difficult to find!

Tollohill wood

My own geocache.

I think its time for me to starting thinking about making my own geocache, finding places to hide them then publish their whereabouts.

I need too -

Find some containers and magnets

Make a log

Find an appropriate place to put the cache

Find the coordinates of this place

Publish the coordinates

WAIT!

Here are some example of home-made containers.

Thoughts and ideas.
+ I have been having ideas about asking people to write a word along with their log name that they feel about geocaching... that would be in wee caches. I'm trying to think of ways to involve the people that find my cache in my project somehow.

 + I'd also like to make hand made books to log this in so I would have a record of this.

+ Concentrate on how the cache are hidden

+  What are they hidden in?

+ Are they disguised?

+What shape is the container?

Constructed textiles

How do i translate the cache i have found into textiles?

Look at shapes ? = Cylinder 

Multiply/repeat

( Architecture couture- Peter Gehrke)

Create cylinder like forms with moldable fabrics. 

- vacuum forming

- embossing 

Possibility to make constructed textiles that items can be inserted and hidden into.

Nano.

"Field of dreams" This cache was attached on a pipe at the football stadium.

The clue was " come on the reds" hmmm football... YAY?

Where is it?...

Finally, a wee one that I could actually open! 

Grey

"Grey" was the clue here. Where do you think it is?

This is outside the Satrosphere science centre

 An wee camera film case attached with magnets well hidden at the between the box and the wall

"Howard's house" I think is my name. I hadn't written the house bit yet...

Rachel Whiteread

"Ghost" 1990

Cast of the entire inside of an old Victorian house. Shows sign of the place being lived in eg. wallpaper and specks of colour from the paintwork.

Second find.

"The Zoology Building"

Clue- "up and just over"

Who would have thought there was something more interesting behing this metal bar?!

I got to log my first one, but shortly after realised I probably should not have written my real name?! Better remember that from now on.
