Skull Thunder graffix

Ah, the wonders of Photoshop. Here's a handful of unsolicited graphics work I've done.




The following works were done in a spirit of experimentation. This next one is based on  the Minimize filter. When I was nearly done with it, I realized that there was at least one method that could bypass the regions that developed into rectangular forms, but by then I was ready to be done with it.




It took a mad amount of tweaking minor details to get this next result.




And look! Video! It's a silent thirty second loop, so I suppose you could put on some music and trance out. There's an HD version, but the fine details are smeared into Technicolor mud. What can you do?




I adore this effect. Not an easy thing to accomplish.




Hey, more video! Like Heavy Metal Omelette, it's a silent thirty second loop, and available in a higher-definition version -- but unlike Omelette, the fine details are the point, and yet here they are, lightly stomped into artifact grunge. But, hell, it's free, so why complain?

And thus we come to the end of the Blogger line

No more artsy videos left on this blog. Anywhere. So why not create some art of your own? Here are links to some click-and-drag finger candy.

Keep in mind while you doodle on those windows that it's all infinitely less permanent than anything ever assembled by a three-year-old kid. Have fun!
