THE BABYLON ACADEMY - NEW FROM SLOWMO!, by s-editions on Jun 18, 2008 10:04:41 GMT 1, Slowmo's seminal 'We Have Your God..' stencil on a Zimbabwean newspaper is now available on the Babylon Academy website at www.babylonacademy.com .
As many of you know, Slowmo is an active member of this forum. We are delighted to include him in The Academy. Slowmo has himself described the piece as 'sixth form wank'. We think it could be more accurately classed as 'fourth form wank', but we love it anyway.
All profits to The Elizabeth Fund, a charity which aims to help street artists develop their work and maybe even make a living from it.

If 50 of you want to get together and pay ยฃ10 each we can ask Slowmo to cut it up and we will send each person a signed piece.

It will be random. Maybe someone could organise a Swap Shop.

s-editions will pay all shipping costs, in order to ensure The Elizabeth Fund receives all profits. The only deductions will be PayPal fees and all net profits will be donated to the charity. There will be no administrative or packaging fees charged by us. The charity will be asked to audit receipts in order to confirm they have received all monies due to them. Their donation receipt will be published on this forum and on The Babylon Academy website.
All the best, All @ s-editions

THE BABYLON ACADEMY - NEW FROM SLOWMO!, by s-editions on Jun 18, 2008 21:07:45 GMT 1, We seem to recall a body of opinion on this forum that we should have arranged for 100% of the profits from the dr.d release at Selfridges to go to charity, rather than a mere(!!) 40% of retail. Put the boot on the other foot and ask people for a measly tenner and the silence is deafening. The only person who has paid up so far is Slowmo - and he's the artist!
Come on people, the money from this is going to a charity specifically set up to assist street artists. What could be more suitable for a street art forum to support?

They are not numbered, but if it helps we can ask Slowmo to write a big '1' in crayon on your piece for you.

We try not to let him get too over-excited, but if we can keep him calm we will let him have a bash at colouring it in for you.
Oh, and many thanks for your donation!

THE BABYLON ACADEMY - NEW FROM SLOWMO!, by s-editions on Jun 19, 2008 20:19:17 GMT 1, Three people have contributed so far. Three!!
The Elizabeth Fund is the only charity we know of that directly helps street artists. If a forum dedicated to street art can only come up with 30 quid we should all be thoroughly ashamed. It is just not good enough to criticise others - we should be leading by example.

not being funny but on average I get stopped 5 times a day either by a beggar or one of them charity collectors on the streets, you need to realise that emotionally blackmailing people doesnt work and wil just tarnish your reputation even more.....

The Elizabeth Fund is a new registered charity based in Bristol. Bristol is of course pretty much the home of British street art. Their aim is to assist street artists in developing their skills and to earn a living from their art.
