Old Designs:
Graffiti work for Australian DJ forums. Really happy with this work. I wanted to get a lot more color into it than my other stuff. Graffiti seems to go so well with the promotion of music styles - obviously it started out being associated with hip hop and rap however I am a big fan of having evil drum n bass on while designing. The energy of the music seems to suit the style of design.
Also tried to get some more technology into this work as along the way I have moved away from my original idea of combining technology and graffiti together to form something different than traditional graff.

Hardcore version of kranky digital
Kranky Digital online internet radio -This is my favorite Drum n Bass online radio channel. Lots of evil breaks and tasty drum n bass. Download the high res wallpaper and be sure to tune in.
Eva - I wanted to do a piece using the same shape of geometry repeated. In this case the lettering style for the E is essentially the same shape for the V and A - it makes for a nice balanced work. This work was inspired partly by the design of Eve in Wall-e. It's interesting that people are aware of the design style of white/raytraced as a way of indicating futurism. Maybe this is thanks to Mac design in mainstream culture? Either way it seems the future of technology design is to cover up the workings in reflective surfaces and have the intelligence of the system as the selling point.
At long last - a 3d graffiti piece in a scrollable panorama! I've wanted to do this for a long time now - i've never seen it done before and graffiti is perfect for it. Considering that most of the time graffiti is flat 2d painted on walls I want to explore all different ways of using technology to display my work. I'd love to make this interactive somehow and have it projected so that people could control the movements or even control what happens inside the vision.
Just a simple composite you can download the hd wallpaper. Driving past these houses I thought it would be cool to add a massive piece to the top of the building. I think if this ever happened in real life people would freak out - the angles of graffiti aren't accepted in society. The community would find it disturbing and not tolerate it
Minimalism - Want to amp up the style and start making my work move. Everyone has seen the basic 3d style but it’s hard to find graffiti that’s animated.
Complex graffiti - This art is the start of many more complex pieces. I don't just want to repeat the style that is already out there but bring something new that only 3d in machines can bring. In this work I wanted just to be able to get the arrow lines to bend around the lettering so it truly is a 3d object rather than a 2d extrusion.
Added to the download section at HD res.
BNE
- It's
about time for some environments. Nature and graffiti a perfect match.
"bas" added a full HD render to the downloads section. A piece exploring z-depth within the lettering like the cross bar in the "a" comming out in space. One of my favourite works.
Space - Another work trying to get a sense of movement and atmosphere rather than just a static image. I was inspired by some lame tagging on a public bridge that I saw, obviously kids who had no idea. At least learn your craft before costing the city money to paint over your abomination. Or hey, do it on a computer. Download high res image
Unleash started off as an experimental work I wanted to get some real wildstyle going on with a sense of movement. If I am to use 3d instead of paint I want to push the boundaries of what the machines can do. I will be exploring partical based systems and fluid simulations after working on this piece.
01/07/08 Electron Microscope
Electron Piece inspired by images taken with an electron microscope. I wanted to get a close up lens effect on these images showing that the lettering would be microscopic compared to cells.
Neon tag
Tests for light tag "neon". Takes a long time to render as it has global illumination, depth of field and motion blur. Each point of light is emitting photons into the scene. Uploaded HD renders and test render:

I will come back to this and make the text write on, the original idea was to have the floor crack as it got the the base of the "e".
"Freq" graffiti Frequency
"Freq"
Started out as a tribute to the Nagra 4.2 professional audio tape recorder - was inspired by the vector lines and VU meters on the front however ended up as a sort of anime 3d mecha robot graffiti work from hell. Hard angular lines!
Cat5 Graffiti tag
CAT-5 "The revolution will not be televised". It will be on torrent
Inspired by the endless amounts of CAT-5 cable. wiki. This work was about bending the lines enough in z-space so that it looked like tagging. I really like the idea of using technology as the next wave for graffiti - the internet has had such a role in spreading styles/ideas and allowing artists to connect and collaborate. It seems only fitting that people use the technology to advanced the medium. Projects like taggedinmotion are not only on the fringe of graffiti but on the fringe of technology - I love it.
Hanimex E300
Hanimex E300 - old super8 movie editor for 8mm film
Recently finished an experimental film - Displaced Threshold - using super8. Nothing beats retro equipment for practical design, I wanted to create a piece using an old editor for film this bit of gear actually requires you to hand crank the film through the rollers projecting it on a tiny sceen. I've been following projection bombing - this retro gear is where projection started.
Atari 2600 graffiti
Atari 2600 Graffiti - the console that inspired so many. You could argue that these early gamming consoles heralded the age of consumer based electronics on a mass scale. Along with TV these were the pioneers in electronics allowing people to bring what was clunky upright gamming units into their home. Great site about the Magnavox odyssey how awesome - pong! This was truly one of the first.
Construct graffiti
Construct - If you don't like heavy earth moving equipment there is something wrong with you. These machines are graffiti magnets the orange/yellow color makes a nice background I guess however i am more inspired by the machines and their functional and technical design.
