Continuing the work on the posters adding some elements to one of them cause I felt it was lacking something, getting closer now almost done :)
I've found some nice "articles" about creativity and illustration and work process that I found interesting I though I would share.

Just randomly bought this graphic novel while on a visit to Stockholm, I really liked it and got me really thinking more about my plans on creating a graphic novel, I should really start writting on a story. Anyway Sixteen miles to merricks is a mysterical graphic novel by Barnaby Ward. Check out more of his work here.
Best right now:
The hood internet - Great Mash-up act, been listning to their stuff alot lately.

Pictoplasma just released that the third conferance will be held in Berlin 2009 in march. I will defenetly go again, had a blast last time. To bad it won't be any conferance this year or well there will be a smaller one in new york but I guess I'd rather wait and go to Berlin next year.
Here are some more of my pictures from the 2nd conferance:

Behind the scene
Got my order from the Astropitch today.
The latest Subtle 12" on red vinyl. A Themselves tee, and Doseones latest cd "soft skulls" that consists of him reading poems from the forthcoming subtle, themselves, and 13&god records and a few classic poems and a few other things :)
Great stuff anyway, Doseone is by far my favorite poet very inspiring and strange stuff :) I hope he will make a sequel to his book "the pelt" one day, not to far from now.
"the photophobic poet has onehundred dollars to his name
and must go see both the dentist and the therapist.
and both does he desperately need"
/ doseone - the pelt
"twinkle twinkle
There will be no ape with a fire for a face
singing a word like fate while banging a fork on a plate
no gates no stakes no plants that are fake…
just the simple tetrahedron and it's vagina of states.
did you really think that hydrogen was made to make apes…
or maybe made to make an ape to make a net for catching whales in space…
and that's why we whale
I'm crack some ink
hugging the rock
wind wound around bone…
every raindrop calling earthsick."
/ doseone - subtle 2006
I just finished watching the latest David Lynch movie. I'm a huge Lynch fan and have been waiting to see this movie for so long now. I absolutely loved it. It's so strange and mysterious and scary it's like you're watching someones 3 hour long nightmare, with worlds within worlds within worlds within movies within movies within movies :) Well if you've seen Mulholland drive and did not enjoy that this film is not for you. This is like a more complicated and bizarre version of that film. Anyway some seens are just brilliant and I love that he put it some parts of his mini series "rabbits" to.
Here is the UK trailer on youtube:
