Radiohead, my favorite band of all time, have called upon the general populous to create the next remix of their song “Nude”. It’s a brilliant idea. They’re obviously testing out fresh ideas to make music the music industry a more interactive engaging experience instead of being like a cold hand that force feeds you through a tube.
Animation wise, they have called on animation artists of all types to come up with provocative adaptations called a music video of a song on their new album as well. I hope they continue to do that. You can check that out here. The finals on June 23rd have yet to take place and I can’t wait to see what comes out of this competition!
Take a closer look at this image to see things that are very subdued in the smaller image, and even in the larger image. I think if I were to improve upon this concept it would be to explore how to push the limits of subtlety and make this image engaging still.
I’m trying for more different approaches to painting concepts. I used custom brushes to make the large forms and shapes concentrating on composition and speed. I was actually just testing the brushes and happy coincidences became instigators to this sketch. It’s actually quite a departure from my usual techniques. It’s pretty hard to work in only muted subtle tones. Hopefully the frigidness of this piece is aptly conveyed.
Ok, i’m not a serious blogger and I don’t pretend to be. It’s getting late in other words and i’m keeping this short and sweet for my own benefit. Maybe when I give a $#!+ if people read my blog i’ll start being more thorough about my posts. I just call it as I see it right now. I’m not on the edge of the razor blade but i’m getting there. Making the $#!+ streamlined is what i’m trying to do right now and writing more, recording what i’m seeing instead of passively letting it wash over me. Sooner or later I want to go back and read this stuff I guess. Or maybe it’s just to cement in my mind that it really happened. Naw, but really, I have work on some stuff before I start getting serious about forcing myself into the limelight. I’m content with doing that yeah… Until then, i’m just-a-dancin’-with-ma-self-oh-ohhhh.
Oh yeah, this is got some good $#!+ in it. Some bad $#!+ too.
