for the mobile phone query i was thinking of making some phones that had killer features…literally. knives cattle prods all sorts and then make them xray by making them negative on the scanner.
for the concept of grinning faces and dizzying madness i was thinking of illustrating a set of advertising zombies with big disturbing grins
e.g the zombie
Advertising and the cheesey grin
24 March, 2009
An old example of how collage has been used in advertising, in a way it gives enough information in each image to sell the specs. so its like a passing glimpse of what something is.
Advertising is everywhere
Waynes world hit the nail on the head at selling out to sponsers
and its a perfect example of concepts with grinning faces
The movie “they live” directed by john carpenter is a prime example of subliminal messages with advertising even though they take it to the literal sense of a hidden message:

Bringing my work back into a narrative sense i was thinking of the idea of hanging the planets in circles in an environment and then take the image and where the planets are circled i can illustrate in a person i.e the psychic for instance he can be holding his head or whatever, then for the my stance is hardcore i could have a person with some kind of firm arms crossed super man kinda pose. i.e “my stance is hardcore”.
And with this setting it in certain environments, e.g bedroom, outdoors, car park whatever.
For an idea for collage: Melanie Armstrong,
Even the idea of beehives and so on could be considered collage in a way. And links into my other shape/design style.
This man is a genius of illustration and collage: Serge Seidlitz
These guys as well are just great and did the psp 3000 ad campaign:
This stuff looks kinda nice too, kinda tacky, but that to me is just how oriental design in general tends to look (in the acceptable way)

Psychics? Space Time? Destruction?

The basics of ESP.
Space time and relativity
an interesting thought to me is the arguement of space and time being two seperate things or the same thing. but also how could you explain visually the concept of spacetime to somebody, along with what if the perception of time differs from one person/being to another and how could you represent it so a person can grasp your perception of this in “realtime”, which then brings us to the understanding of how bold WE as a race are to call it realtime.
A windowless cell could be seen as a rift in space time, maybe a black hole or even the space between parrallel universes.
From this it makes me think what are the things that suck you in and trap you,
maybe work, family friends, addictions, and so on, from this even what can we say is a psychic relation to this, maybe knowing that we HAVE to go to work, HAVE to get out of bed, HAVE to do the washing up or so on. Our prediction of this could be our own esp.and were just spinning around the black hole of though telling us we must do this.
Mega cannibalistic lol
10 March, 2009
After developing some concepts of cannibalism as a counter intuitive …. thing.
i came across this lovely site looking into some facts about how much meat you could get from the human body-
with such great quotes as….
“You will obviously want a youthful but mature physically fit human in apparently good health. A certain amount of fat is desirable as “marbling” to add a juicy, flavorful quality to the meat. We personally prefer firm caucasian females in their early twenties. These are “ripe”. But tastes vary, and it is a very large herd.”
then of course going into how to prepare it and what you need.
the sites called church of euthanasia…. that says it all really…
