The ‘Shapes & Things’ section contains the visual output of happy accidents and accessible look at the role of coincidence and bits of inspiration. The title ‘Shapes & Things’ is taken from a quote by Barney Bubbles, the most audacious record sleeve designer of the 1970s and early 1980s.
‘I spent two years wondering, ’Should I paint?’ instead of just painting,’  He told Dave Fudger in the 1981 The Face interview. ‘I suddenly realised that what I am doing is painting!’  It’s only bits of Letraset, but still shapes and things’.
