Floating through space and time , the Deadstronaut is a legend many fear. If seen on a planet or glimpsed out of the corner of your eye while travelling , it is said only disaster will follow. Some say he is a lost soul, trying to return to his long dead home world of Earth. Others say he commited a great cosmic crime and was cursed to wander the universe for all time, a journey never ending. Just pray you never see him on your galactic travels!
This was one of my first attempts at photomanipulation, of sorts. Another early photoshop experiment! I was always a fan of the old fanzines and the cut and paste work of Jamie Reid . I used to make some when I created a thrash metal zine called Metal Inc ( don’t laugh) and love messing with photocopiers and scans. This was a pretty simple attempt and it worked out really well. I really like the Black and White version that I will do something with!!!
Soloman Tumps Intrusive Signal magazine is a great example of old school zine photocopy joy and the work of Tommy Wilson is a joy to behold.
Cheers
