Victrola Cri


iVictrola by made-craft

My first acquaintance was with Matt Richmond's iVictrola. It is still at the top of my list, largely due to the brassy distortion. All of the sort use simple principles of amplification in order to achieve their resonance, hence wireless.

Minus earbuds, of course.

RGB Wallpaper




via Yatzer.

Though it looks like a botched registration job, the disorienting imagery becomes distinguishable as three individual layers when you shed some light on the subject. Not a particularly new trick and mostly composed of clip art, but the scale is impressive. Would really like a closer look at the papers with repeat patterns.

Time to revisit my Dover Publications collection it seems.

Counterfeit



Artists next on the list for personal appropriation include Frédérique Morrel & Lisa Lefebvre.

I immediately think of Méret Oppenheim, albeit completely reversed and without the looming gray cloud of feminist sexual commentary. Not missed.
