For The Moment! Edition 003


003

Oh shit, I was supposed to make a logo?

Dior Sentai // Raw Cartoons


I got no idea how exactly I came across Hentai all those years back [2009], just like I have
no idea how I came across Dior Sentai. It's definitely got something to do with NoEmotion though...definitely.

This album is basically Hentai x Hip-Hop x "The Internet". The whole style feels like 90's jiggy/gangsta rap, mixed with modern time chiptune-ish electro beats [that's a lot to swallow...pause]. A significant amount of heart went into not giving a fuck with the approach, thus being as vulgar, goofy & shameless as possible, this alone makes the entire experience enjoyable. The albums worth a look if you're a not to overly traditionalist with your Hip-Hop selections, this will also appeal to the "Playstation Generation", the rawness of 'Raw Cartoons' feels a lot like Odd Future's youthful carefree approach to their whole product, feeling both edgy & playful.

§µÅÐʶ®ÏÑ┬: The Mental within social/situational dilemmas

This one is different

The Mental within social/situational dilemmas

This piece was inspired by Paul Laffoley & An Mndsgn album cover designed by
artist 'Yuk', while listening to Hip-Hop artist Blu.

This was originally going to be illustrated, but since I'd started working with this new style,
mixing it with this abstract projection seemed to work. It's an odd Juxtaposition, but one I'm happy
I've laid out. As far as I know, this is the first of it's kind, imagery complied as a photoshopped collage with content similar to Laffoley's "outsider art".

I considered adding more content, but decided to keep it minimal, the basic concepts, [I found]
Were highly debatable enough & adding more to it may make it's meanings too cluttered.

"Fan Page" Cover Art


Some shit I did for my fan page on Facebook.

...yeah, I went there...


Can't remember where it started...

Definitely on a song on Youtube...The album covers/song art caught my eye, but when the sounds became too familiar & too synonymous with the art, it started to feel played out...regardless, I looked more into where this was coming from, mostly one artist, if there was someone else, they were not specific enough [these cats love doing that shit though].

Yuk has create some really nice pieces & after encountering Languids "Lady x Luxuries" cover [http://languid.bandcamp.com/] I started to appreciate the style in many ways...It's simply collages from magazine cuts [or other media of a smilar nature], I'm pretty sure it's all done by hand & scanned or photographed in.

Either way, it's inspired me, I'm going to mess with the style, mostly due to it's resourcefulness & relaxed workload.

FIRST: Polaroid SC-1630 [Smart Camera]

FIRST!
I say this, just in case this fucker catches on & gets played out as fuck...
Is this device a phone? Yes it is [in some circumstances]

As the upgrade is on it's way, I've been looking for a new phone. Unfortunately they "don't do the phones good" any more...so I decided to search up things that were 'Technically' not phones, but you could make calls on & had a superior dominant feature...

I came across this:-

Smooth little bastard isn't he?

So I did some re[Google]search & here are some details/bullet points or whatever;-


- There will be two models, one which is a standalone camera & one which will have phone features. A lot of people were confused about this cause Polaroid did a Nintendo & completely forgot to mention it was also a phone [games console].


- It runs on Android, which version isn't 100% & it was running on 2.0 or something like that at CES [Apparently there's some "ice-cream" version of Android, but I know fuck all about that]

- The fucking lens [3x optical zoom] DOES retract, not sure why people even questioned that but yeah...it does that...


Internal shot exposing slots for the SIM & Micro SD
"Actual proof" it does make calls
- I have no fucking idea if this will get a UK release, but I'm still going to wait...[US release is some time this month]



I does other shit, like connect to the Polaroid printer, but that shit as far as I am concerned is for rich people...

This video add's details I've failed to mention/couldn't be arsed with
