The Guardian was nice enough to post a multimedia feature on Alt/1977, proving once again that everything in the UK is cooler than its American equivalent.
In related news, my repeated offers to pen a comic strip for The New York Times about an anthropomorphic motor scooter that solves crimes while adjusting to a new life as the single stepfather of two wisecracking teenagers continue to be ignored.

I've been dying to share this and it's finally time! One of my biggest projects ever, complete with before-and-after photography and shots of the finished product, all posted here.
This month's transportation-themed issue of the excellent Surface magazine (#83, July/August) features 11 pages of illustration and fashion photography brought to life by art director Chris Mozsary, photographer Daniel Bernauer and myself.
The concept was to merge a model shoot with disjointed freeways and parking structures, using my original Pavement Loop series as the basis for the style. In just under two weeks, after getting access to a high-res download of Daniel's awesome photography, I put together the scenes you see in the final pieces using entirely original assets custom-made for the project. It was a pretty huge crunch but both Chris and Daniel were awesome guys and made the process as easy as could be imagined.
Surface is a pretty slick magazine anyway, so pick up a copy at your local newsstand. I've already bought like 9 because I'm a huge dork but you'll probably only need one or two.
