an insider said it's "pop art, very bright colours, totally
what you wouldn't expect actually". taster:

He had cool hair. Kind of looked like my bunny ears.

i think you should focus more on his art instead of his hair
;-)

"pop art, very bright colours, totally

"

Can't wait! I think (in a way) Ok Computer, Kid A and
Amnesiac have had somewhat similar artwork. (not identical,
but you can tell they belong together)... imo it's a good
idea to go in a different direction this time around.
Damn... i'm equally excited about seeing the artwork and
hearing the music :-D My expectations are sky-high for
both!!

I'm sorry, I just don't see what you can get from
this. Sure you can say it's a commentary on uh the
clash of tradition and modern society, and exploitation of
non-Western culture as a parallel of capitalist exploitation
of physical resources and the way minds as well as lands can
become colonized, but that's pretty fucking facile - where's
he going with it? What, specifically, is it trying to
articulate? Is it trying to "make me think"? Gee whiz.

Actually, hold on a minute, I'm starting to like it. :-)

For "Western" read "European"

Well most of all i just like the way it looks. Right away,
without thinking about it. I'd gladly have that painting
hanging on my wall.

I'm not really sure what he means with it, or what he's
trying to get across. The man made alot of strange paintings
:-p Some looked like the backcovers of (imaginary?) records.
With songtitles and which musician played what parts and
all... really cool (i thought anyway). When i saw some
slides of his work during an arthistory-class, i immediately
ran to the library afterwards to check out some more of his
work :-)

Anyway, do you realise it's been almost a month since i
wrote that? :-p How come you suddenly brought this back up?
