“Scanned over a 1 hour period, and then saved onto a “hard-rom”, Jones presents the next attempt at a new drawing style (thin pencil lines drawn on smudgy velum or grid paper, using geometric shapes and simple figural forms to construct a formal pictorial dissection of contemporary art, life and humor), soon to be the next artistic statement seen on Justice T-Shirts and/or Art Collective’s large smelly big pieces of drawing paper.”

“Dust is everywhere, a perennial presence in the corners of culture. Dust can be deathly (domestic dust is mostly desiccated human skin), deadly (poisonous dust is the product of industry and war) or beautiful (the dusty matte surface of make-up, a light dusting applied by the confectioner, glittering motes caught in a sunbeam). In British English, “dust” is another name for dirt, or matter in the wrong place, implying that it can be moved from one spot to another, but never–as with matter or metaphor–completely eradicated. Cabinet 35 examines dust’s ubiquity.”†

“Inspired by the ghoulish soundtracks of Goblin and the synthetic drama of John Carpenter [...] a potent blend of darkside Italo with a demonic suspense made to fully grip the floor. While the arpeggiated basslines and drum machines are purely retro vintage, the dynamic synthlines and hi-end processing give this away as a modern production, but that’s a large part of its spellbinding charm”

Universal Pictures are retrospectively learning that a 12A rated children’s animation in which the Raggy Dolls visit The Matrix apocalypse is a commercially flawed concept, even if Tim Burton’s producing. Nevertheless 9 is an intriguing exercise in ’stitchpunk’ character design, or a stop-gap for those awaiting Disney Dystopia.

“[A] collection of short stories drawn with great delicacy and told with subtle nuance [...] The setting is the pre-modern Japanese countryside of the author’s youth, a slightly magical world where ancestral traditions hold sway over a people in the full vigor of life, struggling to survive the harsh seasons and the difficult life of manual laborers and farmers.”
