Description 'In the Winter and Spring of 2005, I started the Shadow Percussion Project, where I attempted to adapt a few tracks off DJ Shadow's remarkable album Endtroducing for a live performance group. By mid-February I had arranged both Building Steam with a Grain of Salt and Changeling for Percussion Quintet. Eager to hear what these arrangements sounded like, I brought the music to the Minnetonka High School Percussion Ensemble, an extracurricular music program that I instruct. The students responded to the music positively, even though it was extremely challenging. After a few months of intense rehearsal, the students performed both tracks for a live audience on Monday, May 16 2005.'

good job.. i have to say a better technique in using thershold in photoshop was needed ( if u even were using that for ur black x white stuff ) .. the design in general was lovley..

most of it was created with the 'livetrace' feature from illustrator cs2. its similar to the treshold adjustment filter, but it converts them to vector shapes instead. i didnt have a good reference picture for the larger dj figure, so it came out somewhat rough around the edges. i plan on fixing it later, but my main focus was the layout and composition for this piece though.

cool.. i know some tricks u may use for such things btw .. but it depends on how much time do illustrator cs2 finish such tracing
