Pretty Ugly People

Gurning02In the UK there’s a tradition called gurning. It’s the ‘art’ of making really ugly faces for sport. We even have competitions to find the ugliest face in the village. An old man with no teeth always wins.

Anyway, back in July 2011 I worked at a company called LogLogic. The people there were cool enough to let me play with their egos – I held a gurning competition.

I constructed a very unsafe light ring out of a hula-hoop, 16 household light bulbs and lots of tape, and set about making them ugly. The photo above is me. I didn’t win.
