Description Ever listened to Radiohead's Paranoid Android? Most people probably have. It's a fine song. This semester we had to do a project that was a 'visual interpretation of a piece of music, fusing traditional and digital elements', and I chose Paranoid Android ... obviously. It's fairly self-explanatory ... the song is divided into movements, so the image is divided into fairly discrete sections ... and I just tried, as best I could, to express the music with abstract images.

The backdrop was painted by hand (very rare for me) but most of the good stuff was done in Photoshop.

So, enjoy. If you have the song, listen to it while looking at this, and let me know what you think.

Oh, and credit to ~umbreon17 for his awesome star brushes.

RADIOHEAD!!!

Yesyesyes.

I am in no state to make a real comment right now, but I got very excited about the Radiohead thing. I have been listening to OK Computer non-stop since I bought it a few months ago

It really is the best album. I mean, it's just the best album full-stop. I'm glad you're liking the album, and I'm glad you liked this piece. Thanks again.

Yeh, I think it works pretty well.. The image feels a bit too pattern-based. Maybe section with the type would benefit from more chaos.

Congrats on getting the dean's award! (I dunno what that is, but the Footscray City newsletter said you got one!)

Wow, I'm in the Footscray City newsletter ... awesome. Yeah, it was a Melbourne Access Scholarship -- which I'm pretty wrapped about, because it pays all my fees for 3 years (with a possible extension for honours) and I get a $2000 allowance per year. It's pretty damn sweet. Not as sweet as being in the Footscray City Newsletter though ...
