I have been writing some copy on my experiences at LUNCHMEAT. It roughly outlines the monumental effort that the LUNCHMEAT crew had undertaken for a first time run of a festival.
Much highlighted here is the centerpiece of the festival that would be Nosaj Thing vs. Aalto. It was everything it was meant to be. As for the Torrent de Bites set, we went on quite late but it was still a great experience in the tradition of ‘the show must go on.’
Was approached by VJ Kolouch (aka Jan Sramek) to do a video piece for a Cafe in Brno, Czech some months ago. Actually lost track of it was to be video or drawings or videos of drawings or none of them. Ideas floated around and then here comes the deadline. Around this time, maybe a week or so, Bleepstreet took an interest in having some existing drawings come together for some cover art for an upcoming maxi single release. I decided to combine the two. Any interesting shots from the video will end up being the cover art and then the single itself will be the unheard sound track of the video to be displayed in Brno. The result will be that on the interwebs there will be a video with the track that will match the cover art.
Video is due soon as it is supposed to go up on Feb. 14th. A pdf that is an online magazine for this project in Brno has been release today. The designer took a lot of liberties, changing the color of some of the drawings to orange, changing orientations. In short, I love it for several reasons. The use of color anticipates drawings I made last summer using color. Somehow the figure in the center looks like a fantastic prince with a dunce cap. Very inspiring.
