Its really odd but, your art work is simillar to my own...however mine is either just one pen color or on a white board. I love your music too...for instance, you know how every one says you should listen to mozart because it helps your mind or helps concentration? Well the music you make and stuff semi-simillar to yours is what I think helps release a creative mind. I would like to introduce myself as well, I Am colin and I got to an art school, I play bass guitar...etc also I would like to mention STS9 which is a band you may like. STS9=sound tribe sector nine. :D
eject.eject.eject. the set form of conscious, its an illusion u know. there is no real threat.no evil. we do it to our- selves. fake glory with no reality. slaves to the illusion that hides ar truest capabilities.. . thanks for the [a]dd Coloringbook. ..f-dn[a]
Thank you for allowing us onto your page....what an incredible project, image, and above all, sound you have created here. So varied and so multi-textured.
