Alt/1977 in Wired UK

tuesday, august 17th, 2010













Once again I find myself the darling* of the British press. This time, the ace blokes over at Wired UK included a cutout of Alt/1977's Pocket Hi-Fi, a time traveling iPod and ode to ABBA's timeless musical supremacy. As always I'm well chuffed about it. Thanks, guys!

*Fleeting novelty.

Alt/1977 in the Guardian Guide

monday, august 2nd, 2010













A recent issue of the Guardian's weekend Guide magazine gave two thirds of page 5 to an Alt/1977 feature, placing it ahead of a cover story on Johnny Rotten and multi-page articles on Mad Men and Inception. I can only conclude that the entire United Kingdom therefore considers my loosely satirical set of print ads the most culturally relevant of all the aforementioned, probably combined times a billion, in fact.

Or I'm just missing the fact that page 5 is where they stick the latest gimmick that no one will remember by the time they've turned to page 6.

In any case, my ongoing love affair with England is really starting to give America a run for its money.

Alt/1977 in the Guardian

saturday, july 17th, 2010





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.

Interview with The Black Harbor

wednesday, june 30th, 2010





San Francisco's own badass collective The Black Harbor was awesome enough to interview me and thoroughly illustrate the whole thing. From Justin Bieber sex tapes to showering in prom dresses, we cover pretty much every relevant topic. Enjoy!

Group Interview with Psdtuts

sunday, june 6th, 2010





Psdtuts recently conducted a group interview with a number of artists about their methods for creating visuals through photo manipulation. My response was a little unorthodox as photos don't really enter into my process, but it was fun nonetheless. Check it out!

Elektrotrash in Advanced Photoshop Magazine

thursday, april 8th, 2010







This month's issue (#68) of Advanced Photoshop focuses on "creative type" and includes a brief overview of how Elektrotrash was made on page 25. As usual, however, us silly yanks are a month behind, so it won't hit newsstands Stateside until next month.

Interview with Designious Times

thursday, march 25th, 2010





The awesomely-named Designious Times was kind enough to interview me recently. From my incorrigible sense of humor to my precocious use of impressively big words, you're bound to agree that I should be bludgeoned to death with a shovel.
