Spring Art Roundup 2: The Institution and Skinemax

2 Jul

Just in case some of you were not totally conviced that I am a gigantic dweeb, let me tell you my idea for a video game: a job-based RPG in which skills are learned based on majors at a university. In the above illustration, we see an American Studies major weilding a baseball bat and a Colt .45, an East Asian Studies major citing “Amaterasu,” and a Zoology major using the skill “Falconry.”

This is an Art major and a Psychology major. Character details, including skills, weaponry, knowledge, plot points, stats, and clothes are determined by their major.

Here we see the Central Quadrangle, an important section of campus where many violent debates take place.

Finally, here is an American Studies major brandishing a Cherokee spear and citing “Benjamin Franklin,” who attacks a Level-2 Football Player with a lighting-charged kite.

Moving on, I did some storyboards for my friend Angeline Gragasin, whose creative output is akin to a volcano, or a bottle of champagne opened with a saber. She’s working on an abstract dance video of neo-animistic feminist satire (or some such thing) called “Skinemax.”

I, for one, am looking forward to the finished product.

New Yorker Cartoon No. 2 ニューヨーカーカートゥーン第二

19 Oct

Here’s the second one! The original idea for this came from an actual situation I was in a couple weeks ago. I told Laura about it, and she had another idea for a caption that I thought would be funny, too. I’ve put them both below the cartoon. Please leave a comment to let me know which I should send to the New Yorker!

“Excuse me sir, but could you be so kind as to tell me the way to the nearest public toilet?

Or:

“Excuse me sir, but could you be so kind as to tell me the way to the Ritz-Carlton?”
