Adapted typography: Neon Genesis Evangelion title credits

I was bored today and decided to draft up my own interpretation of the opening title credits for Neon Genesis Evangelion. I always love seeing modified/adapted hiragana, katakana and kanji, and the (original) credits are exceptionally styled while retaining cohesiveness and legibility.

I have been practicing a new mechanical style that is dependent on ambiguous perspectives and isometric contours. drawn in ballpoint pen.

Kitty Pride video premiere promo flyer – Justin Bieber Single

I made a quick digital flyer to promote the premiere of the new Kitty Pryde video for her single “Justin Bieber”. The video is produced under my Count Backwards video project and features a virtual video shoot conducted with Kitty as well as imagery curated through mutual correspondence. The video will be posted during HD Ghettos 4, an online event hosted on Tinychat.

Teaadora’s version is a searingly sober interpretation of the themes of rejection and a hard life of difficult emotions. Footage was shot of photos that had been projected through an opaque projector, as well as photos displayed on a computer monitor. Footage of Teaadora Nikolova was taken from a recent performance in Chicago.

Xiu Xiu – Born to Suffer – exercise

This is a small digital composition I put together for the sake of practice. Text is from Xiu Xiu’s song “Born to Suffer” from their new album, Always. I find the phrase fascinating, and have been told that it refers to an older Parenthetical Girls lyric.

How I Quit Crack also released a remixed version of the #OccupyXmas tape entitled “Thee occupy the solstice mix”.  Like the #OccupyXmas mixtape, this secondary release is produced by Baku Shad-Do and mixed by Mike Textbeak. I had the privilege of designing the cover for this release.

I havent been able to listen to How I Quit Crack’s version yet, but I have to say the original #OccupyXmas tape is full of protest/revolt-themed weirdo anthems; I cant wait to hear HIQC’s input!
