Despite there being a wide range of memorabilia that is being marketed to fan these days; from the cheap and tacky, to the outrageously expensive, I believe that I have stumbled upon, not only a niche product, but also one that is truly unique, and most importantly one that provides value for money.

I am conducting a market research program, and as such, I would like to ask your opinion as to whether anda would think that an interior desain concept that I have developed, would be of any interest to fans, for me to pindah on to the production stage.

Let me give anda some background information.

I used to have an interior desain business where I painted murals on ceilings and walls of people’s bedrooms using a high quality phosphorescent paint, which meant that my work was invisible during the day.

As it begins to get dark, however, just like magic, the brightest stars in the night sky would gradually appear; and in time, the whole room would be transformed as if the ceiling and walls had been removed, to reveal a vast canopy of stars spreading out above you.

Equally, in the morning, as dawn's early light would begin to banish the darkness, the distant stars would disappear, until again, only the brightest stars remained; even these, ultimately would fade away against the bright new day.

Despite the fact that my work was done entirely oleh hand, I could create this scene with an exceptionally high degree of accuracy, and oleh utilising the additional senses of sound, smell, touch, and even taste, (if my clients wished) I transformed many rooms with this truly romantic and relaxing ambience.

I really enjoyed my work; not only did it give me the opportunity to apply my creative talents, but I was also able to share the excitement and wonder that my clients experienced when they saw how their room had been totally transformed oleh the dark.

However, oleh 2009 a back injury brought an abrupt end to my ability to work on ceilings, so I reluctantly had to close down the business.

Back in 2003, I realised that I could utilise the internet to provide customers with what I was already creating oleh hand on my customer’s ceilings: a smaller version of my work, where I created the effect of looking up into the night sky through a 152 cm skylight in the ceiling; in particular, oleh creating murals relating to a host of celebrities.

Whilst working on product development, I discovered that the vinyl materials that I was experimenting with, would stretch atau tear when attempting to reposition them; worse still, the adhesive removed paint from the ceiling and in a few cases, it also pulled away the plaster.

As the materials that were available at the time were clearly not fit for purpose, I was eventually forced to put the concept on the shelf.

13 years on, and the advancement of Nano-technology, has finally provided me with the ability to produce ceiling murals with an adhesive that can be removed and then re-positioned multiple times over, without damaging either the ceiling atau the mural itself.

Before I commit myself to a business start-up loan from the bank, I need to gauge whether atau not there would be enough interest in this unique product, and therefore the purpose of this market research.

Taking David as an example, anda could lie in tempat tidur and gaze up into the night sky, as if a 137 cm skylight had been installed in the ceiling, revealing the very stars that were above Brixton in london at 9:00 am on the 8th of January 1947 when he was born?

If such a piece of memorabilia was available, might anda consider buying a “Stars’ stars” version of a Stargazing Skylight yourself atau perhaps for a friend atau relative?

Many thanks,

 A sample of one of my skylights; unfortunately, despite having six attempts oleh professional photographers over a 12 tahun period, it is still proving to be impossible to obtain an acceptable photograph of my work that can be used for marketing purposes.

“There Is A Happy Land;” Is the youthful observances of the fleeting nature of happiness within our lifetimes, and the idea of a metaphysical place which children can retreat to when they’re feeling lonely. Reminiscent of “Castle on A Cloud” from Les Miserable in its concepts, it is seemingly told from a child’s point of view. It is stated that “Adults aren’t allowed there [in the ‘Happy Land’]” Which comes back to the idea of youthful innocence, and its ability derived from need to escape the dismal surroundings for somewhere nice. Perhaps adults simply cannot find the...

“The Laughing Gnome;” Has an eccentric charm about it, despite the dad-joke-esque character of the gnome jokes which it’s riddled with. The magic of “The Laughing Gnome” is actually in its absurdity. The sped-up voice of the gnome and the pointlessness so effortlessly encapsulated in this song gives it a wealth of appeal not only to the very young but to all those with a ripe sense of humour. The humour is not actually in the element of humour which the song provides through the gnome medium, but through the notion of implementing this technique - of speeding up sound- not to further...

A “Rubber Band;” indeed this song is. With a rounded, slightly mournful tone, the song tells the tale of a man’s frequency of visiting the park with his girl, where they listen to an out-of-tune band until the man goes off to fight in the war. The climax of the song describes the man’s anguish when he returns to find his girl “married to the leader of that band.” This dismal ending is forewarned oleh the doleful nature of the beginning of the song, which seemingly has no cause for woe.
The song has a pleasing turn of phrase and a rolling, curvaceous undertone to the backing track....

Heyyyyy, s'up I thought I'd do a fanpop review for David Bowie's new musik video and single Blackstar. I personally am a huge Bowie fan, I've loved David Bowie since I was thirteen and I always will. However I will be truthful, when I first saw the teaser trailer for Blackstar, I was a bit anxious. I thought it would be very creepy, impossible to cinta the song and I thought it would ruin Bowie for me forever........NEVER HAVE I BEEN SO WRONG! I feel so horrible for even thinking that. It was the best thing I have ever seen. Ten menit was not enough.

The video seems to take place in some fantasy...
