From the Vaults: Eye Flier

I've decided to start scanning up some of my old things. Here's something from 2004, back when my dislike of our social science faculty was at times quite acute, but not as chronic as now :).

Ivory Infinity

I'm almost tempted to just start captioning the dang things ...

Slovene Sails On

Falling economies be damned,  retarded retired folks' parties be damned, lack of public support be damned, public debt be damned. Our government will sail on with the ship. Onwards, to watery Atlantis, I'll wager.

Eye of Pentacle

Distression :).

Triquetra

This symbol is called a triquetra. Isn't that a cool name for three interlocking curves and a circle?

Time to move? Tumblr or Posterous?

Good old Prekomorec here at Blogger seems to be getting a bit ... behind the times. Dunno, it just doesn't look as pretty as some of the things to be seen at Tumblr and Posterous, so I'm going to be trialling those two platforms over the next few days.

So far Posterous definitely seems much simpler, but some of the Tumblr blogs and social features seem prettier. We'll see, we'll see.

Update 1: 04.05.2011 ~> for now Posterous is looking much simpler, plus it lets viewers see full size images.

How A T-shirt Design Gets Made - pt. 1

A heptagram, double paths, different stroke thicknesses.

The overlaps marked in green are going to be doubled, stroked, etc.

Overlaps, can't have too many overlaps in this occulty stuff.
This is now just 4 main layers of stuff, 2 red and 2 black.

The circle turns it from a heptagram to a heptacle.

Now to add a bit more stuff to the middle ...

And more overlaps for the pentagram.

Adjusted the line thicknesses and now it's a pentacle in a heptacle.

Going for a Slayer feel with this one, hand-lettered on a computer,
but I see I'm gonna have to modify the Ms and Ns a bit.

Or maybe the full version is just too crowded. Time to sleep on it.

Hugster T-shirts!

Yay, my first T-shirt is up at Cultera! :D

C-Beams in the Dark of HAL

Freedoms is like that ... you feel like you can't do without it, until you realize it's actually air, water and food you can't do without. Actually, there's a whole lot of things in life we think are absolutely indispensable, until the moment the vast cosmick gulf of infinity starts jamming it's frigid fingers down into our lungs and reminding us that time and air are running out, like sand off the sand-falls of Alpha Orionis e.

Shot Through the Head

Bon Jovi is like a latter-day Nostradamus, almost-but-not-quite foretelling Osama's reported death by headshot.

"An angel's smile is what you sell
you promise me heaven, then put me through hell
Chains of love, got a hold on me
when passion's a prison, you can't break free

Whoa!
You're a loaded gun
yeah, whoa...
There's nowhere to run
No one can save me
The damage is done"
