Robot at the River

What Good Is A Heart?

Monsters V. Robots

I mentioned these prints in a previous post but have finally gotten them up into my etsy shop. Each one is hand silkscreened and chronicles the start of the Monster V. Robot wars that are sure to occur once they've finished wiping us out. Each illustration was printed only 10 times, creating 10 sets of the 4 prints, each signed and numbered on the back. You can buy them all together for $120 or pick and choose at $40 per panel.They come with an easy to affix wall hanger and each panel was treated with a light poly coat to protect the image. The plywood is FSC and the inks are non toxic and water based. Everything was hand made by me. You can order them from here.

Beep & Boop Valentine's Special

There are moments in every robots life were the p-ram is blasted out, the preferences dumped and unfamiliar commands are issued as if some crazy love struck admin is sudo’ing thier heart out in a bash shell.This is one of those moments. Beep and Boop bot are meeting for the first time, and the binary floating around them is a flurry of terminal commands ushering in this new love…

Just in time for valentines day, the Beep and Boop Bot shirts are available now in my Etsy shop, singles for $20 or buy them both for $35. Each shirt is hand silkscreened with waterbased inks. And yes, the binary does translate to things like

Boopbot:~ Boopbot$ mkdir ~Library/Application Support/Heart

Your welcome to decode and descramble it all…

Robo Attack

Sometimes Robots do attack... and sometimes they have laser beam eyes... This is important to note. If you see a giant robot outside your window that running up to the roof top to wave hello might not always be the best idea.

Cry Bot 5000

He's sad cause I'm going to be M.I.A for a few days. Have a great holiday weekend for those of you stateside.

Robo Heads

From doodle to final form

Recently I've been making these binary robot cards. And I thought this was a good time to review how I often go from doodle into a "final" form.

To begin though, I should note that the cards original inspiration comes from a doodle over 3 years in age, that resulted in a painting I currently have hanging in my living room.

One night while looking at the above painting, hanging rather uncomfortably over the edge of my couch I doodled onto my floor what would eventually become a limited series of silkscreen wooden and paper cards.

Below is the first iteration from floor drawing to hand drawn wooden cards. The last of this series I managed to ship and sell on Etsy, while the first, the heart one, I gave as a "tester" gift to my sweetums.

The second derivative of the floor drawing was a more refined limited silkscreen run on smooth found wood silkscreen prints and a companion limited paper card series. From the hand drawn series I expanded on the use of binary as a geeky but unique and appropriate method to say "Thank U"

All of these, of course, are now on my Etsy site, *hint*hint*wink*wink*.

I hope, in sharing these stories, it'll make you think twice about what can come from those meandering lines you may be scrawling about.
