During your journey you will see strange excrement formations, and knotted polythene bags suspended from small trees and gorse bushes. The locals call these punishment posts; sorting frames used by a vengeful and butcherous bird to prepare for acts of faecal justice.If you choose to walk your dog here, take care to clean up after it makes a mess. You are being watched and you are expected to show respect for the moorland landscape. If you ignore this advice then your car might be subjected to dog muck desecration, or worse still, your beloved pet might get abducted by The Dog Muck Shrike.Letterboxing is an orienteering activity that has its origins on Dartmoor. Following map references and clues, letterboxers search the landscape for weatherproof boxes containing illustrated rubber stamps. Pylon Press Letterboxing Trails reimagine folklore on Dartmoor and its edgelands through the transmission of new and existing stories. To use this trail map, identify and visit the location using the OS or GPS reference, follow the trail to the cache area, and use the clue to help you find the letterbox. Complete your experience by printing the stamp directly on to the map, and leave your name and a comment in the visitors’ book. If you have your own stamp then you can leave a print too. https://pylonpress.co.uk/Dartmorians Tue, 16 Jul 2024 13:50:56 +0000 pylonpress https://pylonpress.co.uk/Dartmorians The Dog Muck Shrike︎&nbsp;philiptrenerry.co.uk Author: Philip TrenerryPublished: 2024Imprint: Pylon SeriesFormat: 275 X 195mm BookletFeatures: Colorplan cover, 24 pages <img width="1080" height="810" width_o="1080" height_o="810" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/f7fe066d68bac8576d456327f09018d769995931c4c0795d10507c4a62337e74/P_Trenerry_Dartmorians_loop.gif" data-mid="214737801" border="0" data-scale="69" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/f7fe066d68bac8576d456327f09018d769995931c4c0795d10507c4a62337e74/P_Trenerry_Dartmorians_loop.gif" /> Description The drawings in this publication are taken directly from Philip’s sketchbooks.

You will find illustrations that acknowledge the reintroduction of native species to wilderness locations and the resilience of animals that have adapted to hostile environments. You will see studies of servicemen who received pioneering surgery during the First World War and dystopian reinterpretations of symbolic British rituals.

 Inspired by public information films like Apaches and Play Safe, I wrote a cautionary narrative that alludes to the fate of two characters who trespassed on the tungsten mine in the 1970s’. The trail map was hand rendered with coloured pencil and risograph printed in custom colours. The stamp is designed to be printed directly on to the map when found and has been deliberately omitted from the photos. https://pylonpress.co.uk/Floating-Around Tue, 27 Nov 2018 13:19:41 +0000 pylonpress https://pylonpress.co.uk/Floating-Around Floating Around︎ @camerthing Author: Cameron WilliamsonPublished: 2016Imprint: Kilovolt (kV) SeriesFormat: A5 BookletFeatures: Lithograph on G.F Smith stock <img width="823" height="602" width_o="823" height_o="602" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/7b75bfc4612129ed4532cf8036a4038fb55da3cb4ed78be0a0c32c92bcd02400/Cameron_Williamson.gif" data-mid="33381030" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/823/i/7b75bfc4612129ed4532cf8036a4038fb55da3cb4ed78be0a0c32c92bcd02400/Cameron_Williamson.gif" />DescriptionThis comic by Cameron Williamson provides a window in to the thoughts of a prospective Plymouth College of Art student on the day of her interview.
