Client: Breakbone Danceco

My Etcher image was used as the cover and in the promotional packaging for the production of "Deadtech" a post apocalyptic dance/ short film produced by the Breakbone Danceco <website>.  It was released in 1994, but I hadn’t seen it until now. Thanks  Atalee!

I am proud to have contributed an image for the book – 60, Unite for Children, as well as participation in the world wide traveling exhibition.  All proceeds go towards UNICEF.

 
"We contacted sixty recognised or up-and-coming artists and digital
designers from every corner of the world, whom we invited to join in
this project.  Our initiative found an echo among them and they
kindly agreed to participate in it, convinced that Childhood is worth
illustrating, as pictures may sometimes have a stronger impact than
words This project called "60, Unite For Children" is made up
of 2 parts. The first is the execution and publication of a graphic
creation’s anthology. The second is the organization of an touring
exhibition. "

The Queen B video for Puscifer that I directed has been released.

I worked closely with Maynard to realize his vision. 

YouTube user comments, always entertaining

Click HERE image for some still frames from the video.

Siggraph (the largest digital art and technology show) was a lot of fun (work) this year.

I was in the middle of the Puscifer video project, so my assistant Dean Deakyne and I were forced to load up our equipment and drive it all down to San Diego so the deadlines could still be met.

 Dean working during Siggraph in the W Hotel as others were having a good time.

Pixologic had a large banner advertising my artwork .

I gave a quick lecture at the Gnomon booth where I was also showing off my first few pieces of holographic motion art.
I’ve partnered with the company that has the technology – Rabbitholes (www.rabbitholes.com) and plan to really push the boundaries of this new art medium.  Collectors can look for my pieces soon in galleries near them.
