Working on a gun that's pretty special to me :D Extra points to who ever can guess what it is.. I will give some hints (I'm not a monster :P ) It's a fictional Rifle from a famous 90's Anime..
place of rest for rovers
wellington, western cape
it was a cold, misty, rainy day.
as i was driving past the scrapyard for the umpteenth time i thought, 'perfect weather for this gloomy yet exciting personal project, provided i get permission to do so'.
so i turned around my vehicle, parked and went to the reception of the body-part cemetery. five minutes later, after adjusting camera settings i was ready.
some abandoned vehicles in various conditions of being used, consumed or abused ended up here, by choice of some human being having a passion for rover vehicles.
in the distance some vulture like human beings with crude instruments/tools oblivious to the weather (like me) were pecking away at the metal and plastic carcasses in search of specific body-parts or useful spares to temporarily extend the life cycle of similar creations.
ultimately most will be stripped bare to an abstract metal carcass, often that in itself will be usable, alternatively off to the smelters to be re-purposed.
somehow makes me think of us humans and our lives.

finally found time for a "me" project. blogged: katiecupcake.blogspot.com/2009/06/current-projects.html
Extended Play presents:
MASSIVE ATTACK - 100th WINDOW (Special Edition)
This is one custom album packaging of a 4-series piece entitled Extended Play, which is intended as a personal project by !nodoro™. It is a tribute to some of my favorite musicians/artists around the globe - a collection of new interpretations, perspectives and formats to their classic covers; hence the word “play". It is by all means an experimentation without boundaries to the concept. Music and Art are two things that complement each other enormously; they go hand-in-hand and in my opinion, are of absolute equal importance. Thus, I consider an album cover highly reflective of the record, or a critical introduction to it. It is the passage into the music.
Extended Play also serves as a way of sending out the idea to every graphic designer/musician to play a big part in coming out with the best interpretation of music through a rich visual experience using the best material, method and execution possible. Simple or unconventional. Pronounced or obscure. Independent or commercial.
As both crafts are related, the idea of co-existing in creativity makes perfect sense - we give importance to the music and to the musicians who provide them just as they provide the necessary inspiration and direction for us designers.
As a final thought, one could only hope that despite this digital age, every music fan will continue collecting physical records like owning an actual fine art piece in your hands and truly say "Print. Still. Matters."
Concept: Massive Attack is perhaps one of the most innovative/progressive musicians around without question. The idea for the album packaging is to decipher the random actual lyrics found on the cover and back and slip unto using the acrylic plastic case to see the main titles and track lists. It allows depth and interaction at the same time.

my personal project was eyes because I believe that is what makes us who we are are. they are the windows to our life, thoughts, memories, and most precious of all our soul.
"I have been applying to multiple jobs. I meet all the qualifications, in fact most times I am over qualified but I never tend to be the 'right' candidate. I always get to the interview phase but I just never receive call after the interview. I am not sure what it is. I have a masters in journalism with a few years experience and I'm in the middle of finishing a second masters in Women and Gender Studies. I am struggling a lot to find a professional job. It seems like as an international student, people just expect you to work at fast food restaurants and I refuse to do that because there is a reason I am working so hard at school, it's to have a better future. I feel like as an immigrant I constantly have to prove myself to others and that is exhausting." Sumaira Alwani is from Pakistan. She has been living in Canada for close to three years as an international student. She has completed her masters in journalism and will be finishing her masters in women and gender studies some time next year. Photo by Madina Azizi.
