photographers, visual artists...collaboration??

[rbnyc]

I've really been enjoying making videos lately for some of my old salvaged 4-track recordings. You can see them here: http://www.youtube.com/my_videos?feature=mhee

I'd like to make 2 more. I would love, love love it if any painters, photographers, or other visual artists were interested in contributing images for the projects.

If you would like to contribute images for me to use for either of these songs, please post them here. Let me know what song the image is for and if and how you would like to be credited. Also, please let me know if I can manipulate your image or if I should use it as is.

I really hope some of you are interested. I know when I posted my videos recently, there was not a lot of interest, which I totally get. But I thought I'd just put it out there anyway.

Songs:

The Retreat: http://kiwi6.com/file/rod37j63z1

or

Jar: http://kiwi6.com/file/ikmolmxu3h

The lyrics to each are below. Feel free to ask me anything about them.


The Retreat

I am ready to make myself as dull as it takes to get some sleep.
I would give up anything for sleep, most easily friendship.
But don't I still owe for the phone bill?
And all the time driving on your gas money?

Loyalty and gratitude are for guilt lovers.
I love sleep.

But aren't I still indebted for your initial faith in me?

Loyalty and gratitude are for guilt lovers.
I love sleep.
Dead sleep winter, I love.
Winter doesn't hold me to standards of spring, lets me lie.
I need no color to apply.
Dead sleep winter.
I love sleep.


Jar

Sealed in a weekend.
Sealed in a weekend hotel.
Sealed in a cross-section, floating in a jar.
I had to leave it there.
I don't lie.
I don't lie.
I don't.

Sealed in a weekend hotel.
I have you floating in a jar.
I don't lie.
I don't lie.
I don't.

4. I have some various abstract stuff that you're welcome to use.

I don't need any credit, and you can do anything you like with them. Once I'm done with my art it's free to anyone for any reason, even something I didn't like. My drawings I'm a little more attached to, but the abstract stuff isn't a big deal to me. It would be cool to see someone take them and create something new from it.

Here's a handful, but I have about 80 along these lines. And as you'll notice, I'm a big fan of symmetry...













And because one can't do symmetry ALL the time...

Thees are beautiful. I fill have fun playing with them too.

I like your attitude. I'm much the same way.

5. I enjoy your work rbnyc, bust most of my stuff is sports and nature.

Don't really do the kind of images that would work for your tunes, otherwise I'd be happy to contribute. :)

Best of luck, and I can't wait for the finished work.
