'HAIL CHIPTUNE'

Another super fun illustrative flyer for the crew for their upcoming post-chiptune focused event. I got a little carried away illustrating some old modding chips and chip tune set ups along with some subtly sinister beachy vibes to meet the 'neon satanism' part of the brief.

The design was influenced by a series of Japanese (or possible Korean) posters I discovered that lean into the Manga / Comic style poster box formats but with more sunny vibes, colours and themes. I assume there is a name for the style, but so far I haven't been able to work it out, and unfortunately my second language skills are severely lacking to work out what the various tags mean.

TYPOGRAPHIC DRAWINGS

A few of my favourite typographic drawings from the past few years. Always fun to be able to take refeence from old protest posters style.

1) Rhythm Express art created for worked up with
2) gig artwork
3) 'Take A Stand' album art for - some of the 3D effects here where completed by his usual artist. At some point I'll get around to posting the animations for Krooked Politicians.
4) Plus an old (2013 maybe?) craft beer advert for . More type layout than drawing but still a favourite.

THE FUTURE IS NOW!

I've been lucky enough to work with Zerotonine and the Laser Highway crew for a few years now. Never short of an interesting brief, the most recent of which was based on reimagined 80s VHS designs. Lots more Laser Highway work to revisit at a later date!

If you are in Melbourne the event is on this weekend and is sure to be cracker for those on the sythwave / italo side of the musical spectrum.

A series of image manipulations for the forth iteration of the and Sunday winter day parties (don't quote me on the number of years).

Primary focused on the use of abstract organic close up and macro photography combined with difference filters, grain and overlayed street posters textures to give the colours extra vibrance. Ultimately much of these images are covered with text and colour panels (check the last slide) but I enjoyed making these too much to not give them a little bit of time in the spotlight.

Big props to all the photographers provided such excellent source material on Pexels. Recommend for your stock photo needs.

TETRAMER

Sometimes a lot experimentation goes into ultimately subtle animation. This collaboration with my brother Nicholas Thayer produced a lot of interesting pixels sorting and datamosh experiments that deserve to see the light of day.

The overarching theme we where exploring is the interaction of digital artefacts and organic elements, as such a representation of the underlying electric elements that are infused with traditional classical musical with the Tetramer album (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC7Yd6lfWm3vFrTdWbzUh4dA/videos)

Check slide 4 for visualisation experiments and 7 of my IG post (www.instagram.com/coreshotdesign) for a selection of my favourite moments from the final visualisations. These where created using audio reactive code to control the pixel sorting strength. Some are aligned purely to electronic effects and some to the classical themes. Check the full album and visualisations over at his IG and youtube.

These experiments with pixel sorting led into a whole series of portrait experiments, many of my favourites can be seen in this post. Original photos taken by

THE BUSH
A lot of artists and vecnues I work with like things to be loud. So it's been a lovely change to work on a series of public holiday event flyers with for .

The theme has been abstract Australian landscapes. A partiular favorite has been the dancing sturt desert pea's, something I'll always see from noe on.

I only wish I was in Melbourne to give their cocktails a taste.

PETRICORD
Over the past few months I worked with to develop art for her recently released Petricord EP. With the refined concept of being 'within the art' we ultimately circled back and used the fantastic portraits by within some closeup images of an existing artwork.
However the developnment process produced a lot of interesting images that uiltimately didn't get used. Swipe through for a qiuck view of the process. And pop over to e Marije's page to watch the video for the video for the first sinle This is Us.

ACIIID!
Recently worked with and embracing those smiley acid house vibes I missed by a few years as a kid.
For those interested in the technical side of things, slide 4 is the distortion map I created to make the fabric effect.

A series of neon styled icons developed as part of a rebranding concept that ultimately went un-used by the client. After a few rounds of concept development and drafts it was decided that the hawker / street food references weren't the correct direction for the company. Still a fun series of icons and .ai graphic styles to create.
