what does it involve?
- meffid0
for print and non profit, it would be a contrasting style to my black and white work, they'd be good with colour.
in the way that FAILE and alike work I guess.

if they weren't in melbourne it'd all be digital via the net and then released.
if they were in melbourne it could be varied mediums and larger canvases etc.
I was just seeing who was interested and had the time to collab and share insights, methods etc.

I'm drawing on the old demo scene idea here a little, but not so much as a group (no more than 3 artists per work).
Spose you kids all are too young to remember iCE and ACiD and the good old days of 2400 modems.

Okay, this thing wont let me leave a side note no matter how much I edit it, so here's my side note, down here instead:
Thanks Meffid. I love your stuff too, hence me wishing I could do something!

What are you balls deep in SkyPoo? Anything we can see or is it hush hush?

Nah, its not even all that interesting to be honest. I did a thing a while back that was presented as random words doodled in my sketchbook, but really the words all added up to a sentence. I quite like the idea of doing an illustrated sequence where I'm not illustrating the meaning of the words, just illustrating the words so that its all a bit random and odd.
So I picked a huge passage from a book and literally chopped it into little sections of up to five words in length. Whenever I have some time I pull out a slip of paper and make an illustration of whatever's on that snippet without recalling how it fits into the whole passage of text. When I'm finished I'll lay them all out in the correct sequence in a book and be very thankful its all over... I picked a too long passage and unfortunately I have done a significant amount of it now so it will have to be finished. I was originally going to colour them all but I think it will have to be black and white now.
Heres a one word one...
- very very nicemoamoa
- FUCKING. AWESOME.
Are you going to publish it when complete?meffid - Haha Nah, I don't seem to have the right degree of kudos for that sort of thing. I might get it printed...SkyPoo
- on newsprint, planned up so I can hand fold it into a little newspaper and sell it on my webshite.SkyPoo
- I might die of old age first though.SkyPoo
- Haha. Well if you feel the need to roll one up and sent it over, I'll definitely send something nice back.meffid

I'm interested, I dig your works and have some (not too much) free time I could use doing stuff with you.
So hit me if you want, I'd be glad to participate.
