The self portrait I have been using on this site and elsewhere online was getting old. The original line drawing is from the comic Abstraction that was published in Wonderful Comics #10 in 2008.

Since then, I have changed my hair style and I started wearing glasses more often. More importantly, I have aged quite a bit since I made the first version.

In short it was time for an update. Below you can see a few of the steps in the process.

I designed this t-shirt print as a birthday present to my old friend Fredrik. It’s Cthulhu surfing near the sunken island of R’lyeh – an Elder God spoof of the Old Guys Rule brand.

Now you can buy your own Lovecraftian surf wear at Redbubble.

Min fanart till Stockholms internationella seriefestival.
Det fantastiska originalet är av Lina Neidestam.

 

This comic was published in the international comic art magazine C’est Bon Anthology volume 22. The theme of that issue was singularity, so my comic is inspired by the technological singularity.

• Simulation hypothesis
• Digital physics

Last year I went to a concert with Carsten Nicolai a.k.a. Alva Noto. It was a great show with abstract electronic music at unexpectedly loud volume and accompanied by amazing visuals.

I was reminded of the Alva Noto-comic I made in 2011:
Förra året var jag på konsert med Carsten Nicolai, a.k.a. Alva Noto. Det var en fantastisk spelning med abstrakt elektronisk musik. Jag blev överraskad både av den höga volymen och den imponerande grafiken.
Jag blev påmind om en serie som jag gjorde 2011:

Här är en serie som jag tecknade till Wonderful Comics för länge sedan. Tyvärr är den fortfarande minst lika aktuell.
