Will you help me make more variations of my logo?
Hello? Will you help me reach my target of “near infinity” logos? Will you help me populate image searches with these, my perfect language? It is starting to seem as though I may never realize this dream alone.
If you can use illustrator, and have 15 minutes to pump out a variation (examples) , I will send you a postcard in thanks. Then I will post your variation with credit.
E-mail hello AT rayfenwick.ca if interested. I will send you a template file with “instructions”.
Yrs infinitely,
Ray
Pastoralia @ Mass Moca »
In honour of the fact that my band, Pastoralia, is playing at the opening of “Oh Canada” (the largest survey of Canadian art outside of Canada) I thought I’d put our last album up for download. You can get it in all sorts of decent formats.

It is free, or rather, pay what-u-feel. Just put in 0$ to grab it free.
Did you know that you can highlight text in os 10.7 and output a spoken version? I did not.
The Descriptive Camera »
“The Descriptive Camera works a lot like a regular camera—point it at subject and press the shutter button to capture the scene. However, instead of producing an image, this prototype outputs a text description of the scene.”
I did a text piece on the wall outside my studio.
I seem to be moving more towards video and performance these days, but I do like the potential of these large text walls. I’m thinking about them kind of like “games” with specific constraints, played out over a wall. Not unlike the Sol Lewitt wall drawings—which I definitely think of as having a game-like quality.
We shall see what happens. I definitely think I will explore this over other forms of painting.
What About This Voice? (8:50)
Maybe you should trance out to the sound of my own voice? Some new video art, meant to play in a loop in a dark room. For 1000 years.
My logo/brand system is a system which has infinite variations, infinitely complex meaning relationships and infinite gradations of rhetorical appeal.
“RIP-OFF FOGS” - - - A new art video.
The door to my studio at school.
