Small Things / Photoshop is Fun
Robin Willis, 02 Sep 2008 @ 03:16 AM
I have rediscovered Photoshop as a really fun and interesting way to experiment and come up with visual impressive pictures in almost no time. Here are a few things I made earlier this summer, some for fun some for friends that never used them so I thought wow i'll put these on my website. I originally wanted a blog so I could post sketches and small things quickly but then realized I was too lazy to scan stuff, so this is perfect. Enjoy. School starts tomorrow so it will probably be another month until I post. Click something around here to view them all nice and big. |

Gourmet Food not so Gourmet Photography

For some reason whenever I cook i have a huge impulse to take a picture of whatever I make. I am consistently shocked that I have created something that I can put in my mouth and it wont kill me. These are some of my winter dishes(created by yours truely except for the first, they are almost all remixes or mashups of other recipes or things I have eaten). Too bad I don't have a nice camera that can do these justice but hey.

Dark Water 23

Heres a little piece I made while staying in New York around the same time as this one. I don't know what to think of these, they both definitely come from images in my head stuck from There Will Be Blood. While they have nothing to do with the earth bleeding or of greed it is something about the water being like silence you can only find in nature. I dunno I need some feedback. I have recently been finding all kinds of little graphic tidbits that I made a while back and forgot about so I will post those soon. I also just finished a design for the cover for an ep and am in the process of designing another. I will post those as soon as they come out. I just read a truly insightful essay by James Corner called The Agency of Mapping: Speculation, Critique and Invention. It tought me alot about myself actually or at least made new connections between different things that I am interested in that I never before saw. It is from the book Mappings and I highly recommend it to anyone interested in space, time, media and little social people. I posted a little blurb on my classes shared MIT utopian blog about it. Note: The portfolio link is broken if you want to look at my previous work go to myplaybin.com or to selfportrait.net - sorry I will get it straight soon, broken links are my nerdy pet peeve.
