Yeah it's missing a lot of the crazy, surreal sauce of the books that Lynch tapped into. I enjoyed the Lynch film a lot more than i expected i would

All of this rocks in your style but the Harkonnens absolutely rule. All of it does, to be clear, in a way i wish i wasn't tired so i could word it properly - your interests and preferences don't take over what are clearly inspired book designs What did you think of the newest Dune films?

Published in 1812 as part of Katsushika Hokusai’s revolutionary instructional manual Ryakuga Haya-oshi (略画早指南, Quick Lessons in Simplified Drawing), this page illustrates the master’s pioneering methodology for art education.

Displayed across a open two-page spread, a remarkable pedagogical demonstration contrasts geometric scaffolding with organic artistic realization. On the left page, Katsushika Hokusai dissects a complex scene into fundamental geometry: overlapping circles (maru), triangles (sankaku), and straight lines construct the underlying anatomy of a traveler mounted on a packhorse beneath clustered circular pine needles. On the right page, these rigid compass-and-ruler guidelines dissolve seamlessly into a fluid sumi ink rendering, bringing forth a weary traveler wearing a broad straw hat (suge-gasa) slumped gently atop a grazing horse under a textured pine canopy. Surrounding the figures, delicate calligraphic annotations guide the student's hand. The woodblock print evokes an enlightening sensory atmosphere: the rhythmic scratch of a brass compass pivoting on fibrous washi paper, the smooth glide of a bamboo brush loaded with dark indigo-black ink, the quiet concentration of an Edo-period apprentice in a sunlit workshop, and the intellectual joy of discovering order hidden within natural form. Published in 1812 as part of Katsushika Hokusai’s revolutionary instructional manual Ryakuga Haya-oshi (略画早指南, Quick Lessons in Simplified Drawing), this page illustrates the master’s pioneering methodology for art education. Designed to democratize drawing for amateur enthusiasts, textile designers, and aspiring artisans across Edo Japan, Hokusai demonstrated that any subject—from human figures and horses to ancient pines—could be reliably constructed using simple drafting tools like the compass (bunmawashi) and ruler (shaku). Rather than relying solely on intuitive copying, Hokusai’s analytical approach broken down visual reality into modular geometric building blocks.

So I was thinking about Valve's Prospero recently #y2k #art #illustration

a landscape of flowing purple shapes dotted with shiny glassy spheres and trees with airplane-shaped leaves. On the hazy horizon there is a city destroyed by sharp angular shapes of red and black stretching into the sky. On the foreground, a giant black woman with rocket engines in her hair locks is half-lying down, her face is a shattered void, and on her chest is painted a blood-red hexagon. She is surrounded by levitating monks with red hexagon prisms instead of heads, and is approached by a small human figure

#photography #Yorkshire I took a photo at sunset and couldn't balance the exposure in post, whilst messing around with Camera Raw Filter, i realized that by dramatically bumping Curves up and down, i could isolate only the sun *and* lift the remaining light hitting the bottom of the clouds.

Deep edited red sunset and high contrast steely blue sky. Looking towards Ingleborough on the far right, Craghill and Gragareth on the left, Howgills on the far far left I believe? Yorkshire is on the other side of the valley, i'm standing in Lancashire.

I know i know, long story short my HL2 guide was eaten both by a parrot and a dog, and long loved on car journies with open rainy windows, so i've replaced it with a better copy. I never cut up books that are otherwise untouched by anything but age.
