jules Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 (edited) Revised a bit. I am not sure about the avatar images but I tried to handle them a little more subtly than in the big quari squares. As far as having watmm in there, I think the "this doesn't sound like autechre..." bit is a little more of a nod or reference to an inside watmm joke vs putting the actual letters in there. But I am open obviously to the consensus of the group. Edited November 13, 2020 by jules 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auxien Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 good job with the avatars, i think that works well (jules, not xox you dork lol) but the text seems too much like it is. not sure a solution but i think that’s all busied up a bit too much imo. looking really great overall tho!

jules Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 (edited) you think there is too much text? Maybe it was too large. Revised... edit: Also revised the date section to be more in line with the tour poster from then. Edited November 13, 2020 by jules 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auxien Posted November 13, 2020 Share Posted November 13, 2020 that breaks it up much better imo! different weighting or size with the underlined sections vs not-underlined, all helps to clear it up. the great art’s getting me hyped for the tunes, re-listened to the set again a couple days ago, gonna be awesome to hear it recreated.

However, it could be right that Ios and Digit appear with their real names: this is something that will have a significant following around the world, and will remain over time as an appendix to the Ae discography, not just as a bootleg: isn't it limiting that their work remain linked to the self-referentiality of the forum? I agree. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

xyrofen Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 Do y'all want the barcode to output actual information? If yes, what? I work with this shit every day and can easily encode a string in there that any basic 1D barcode scanner can grab. Shit, I can get you a 2D one, but this isn't EXAI related.

natios Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 watmm link probably? also what do you think about changing the colors so its not a digital ep cover rip off? lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think a link to watmm might be cool 8 hours ago, natios said: watmm link probably? also what do you think about changing the colors so its not a digital ep cover rip off? lol I was thinking that too. The color palette is black, white, grey and that blue. The tour posters from that era were blue. I did a black version that might be cool but I do really like the blue. The grey is too much like the versions album imo. I can post the black one later or tomorrow to see what everyone thinks. How is everyone feeling about the avatars? I kinda don’t think they should be in there, personally. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Adamovich Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 Is this going to be uploaded on watmm for good or just wetransfer link for a week and that's it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IOS Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 wetransfer for sure, and hopefully here on watmm as well. I had tried with the incomplete replica a few months ago, but it wouldn't upload here. Will try again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaderpansen Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 +1 blue. i remember the tour shirts had some alternate color schemes, but i can't seem to find em online. anyway fuck it, blue! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jules Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 I was basing mine off of this maybe not a tour poster but I’m pretty sure it was from warp 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baph Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 I don’t think the avatars look right aesthetically, but I do think the code should credit IOS & digit somehow. Could link to this thread. Or use two codes and link to their profile pages or whatever they’d like individually. Just a thought. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just a thought. the barcode could lead to a page (somehow connected to WATMM) with credits - this at the discretion of Ios and Digit - and the story behind it all, a link to download the set and, how it was been proposed, a reference for a donation. Speaking, I am quick, unfortunately the technology has an idiosyncrasy against me, and if I tried to do such a thing, the monitor would explode in my face to punish my arrogant optimism Edited November 14, 2020 by Draft78 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BUNKUM Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 Blue version for me too. As for the avatars, they look better than I expected but probably better without them. Great work @jules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natios Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 the orange one is dope, for some reason i’m imagining a yellowish lime green 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Draft78 Posted November 14, 2020 Share Posted November 14, 2020 17 minutes ago, natios said: the orange one is dope, for some reason i’m imagining a yellowish lime green the orange version is the negative of the original; the idea of negative was for a graphic strictly connected to quaristice (therefore not colors chosen arbitrarily), but clearly distinguished from the official releases. There could also be a latent meaning: if the 08 live is the result of impromptu moves, the reconstruction is the extreme effort to replicate them methodically. The negative is the only idea that came to my mind to visually represent an opposite. I don't mind the result, but I don't know what I prefer ... I associate quaristice with blue, and the graphics of the promotional flayer of the tour is certainly a consistent choice 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
