totem time

these were made by layering textures in photoshop. i call them totems for some reason.




the experience has been enlightening, but it also creeps me out a little to construct an image entirely out of other images. expect more comic assimilation into a flexible frame of space in the following days

monolith // monolith

THE BUS SHEPHERD

"wasn't it the rotator cuff that finally gave out after all those years of driving?"
pay a college kid 5 dollars back then up in montana just to put the chains on the wheels.
kid'll say, i'll do it. chains and rubbers. rubbers was a star that held the chains together

the image is holding hands
bicyclical like teeth on the bus
but is it biblical? it's certainly not
a bus driver

USDA CERTIFIED

as structural framework: where exists the image, and where exists the frame of the image?
if image is absent
then it's electricity that hold itself up so well

VICTIM

or:
bad night out
or:
bad night in

or: how does this image exist within sensory space and perception? what can
actually be seen of the woman depicted? what can be seen of the woman once
the image has been retranslated to a computer screen?
a victim of false information: you can reference the source, but the woman remains
painfully anonymous. but that's okay because there's two of her

FALSE IDOL

i gave them a body and more feet. dizzying - abominate - unrehearsed structure.
this image is a lie, instant 30 second monolith

EXTENSIONS

or: barrel monkey theory?
the image confined to a vague, unrehearsed axonometry simutaneously
suggests and discourages the prescence of a new architectural space.
thus the nature of proper orientation: an image held to 45 degree angles
projects itself into an axonometric framing system, however distorted
or unaligned the cmponents may be.

--------> axonometric design creates a forced dimensionality on an image collage,
one that cannot be avoided by depicting an image unreal with grotesque perspective.

45 second horizontal spread experiment

collage: design gods

designs: vegetable piece

these are some ideas for something that has to do with vegetables. more info later
