Dingo and Pigeon Smoking Pair Fan Art Page.

 One of my favorite fan art themes is the dingo and pigeon sharing a smoke, while the bird is perched on top of dingo’s head. In doing some creative exercises on my iPad Pro, I familiarize myself with some of the extended use applications and how to manipulate images, while working from a generative AI backdrop, which allows for huge shifts in temperament and theme, at a moment’s notice. Some of the images evoke notions of things we have seen before, such as cartoons, perhaps an artist, or an art movement in history. Using this simple subject matter as inspiration, I try to discover, invent, or manipulate the thematic and compositional contents of the premise, and it serves as a rich playground for uncovering new meaning.

This is the basic vector image ink-drawing-styled template, from the Vector Q app.

I found inspiration in the simple lines and playful colors in this randomly generated version.

The triangles and shading in this image caught my eye.

I liked the humorous cartooning lines, here, to top off some fortunate shading effects, of the triangles.

I played around with this image, a fair amount, but I kept the divergent contrasting color theme somewhat intact.

I felt that this dusty rose vector cut out, with a blank background, would be the type of image I could use, later on, as compositing material, in to new compositional settings. 

I liked the bold primitives and gaudy color palette of this one, that I worked on.

This was a randomly generated image that came out pretty neat.

The Fauvist allusions in this randomly generated image are glaringly apparent, I feel.

The neat-o iPigeon.institute homemade instrument of the day (updating).

As an aspiring mobile device-driven music box designer, from various standpoints of development: nature’s form of the instrument (whistles, clicks, pops, bird sounds, and resonant bodies of materials, such as metal, wood, etc.), digital design of the emulated instrument (physical modeling, synthesized sounds, audio recordings, key mappings, and transpositions), as well as the delivery of the app, in a usable form, of some standard such as MIDI, 

I have, on one hand, a lot of free space to work with, given that any individual component would reasonably simulate some sort of more complex mechanical form and instrument structure, for example, my first novelty device:

The Can Drum Bellows Clicks-Flourisher - runs on tar!

Long-time readers of mine know that I’m big in to tar. What a fortunate discovery, to have happened upon this hand-crafted (post-manufacture and consumer use of this recyclable product - an aluminum can) bellows device - a sequential flourish-clicker, if you will, with features of a miniature steel drum; on one hand, percussive, as the form of the instrument was crafted by my own musician’s take on suitable design, for a makeshift tobacco pipe, whereas - as a pipe, for that matter, the instrument is played with the breath. It goes well, with a popping sound, perhaps, as a flourish moment, in a musical idea, whereas the tar, from smoking the aluminum can pipe, with tobacco; then smeared (the tar) across the numerous holes in the can’s smoking bowl section, whereby the can, suitably designed, mind you, would blow out, with a bellows thrust and force design concept, in mind, with both flutish and percussive effects being achieved, in one simple blow. 

It’s a simple thing to construct, yet it takes a musician’s skill and finesse, along with some entrained tonal fine-motor muscle tuning, which goes in to the crushing of the can - perhaps even a newcomer could construct the panels of the body of the instrument well enough; it’s just that this is particularly a musical instrument consideration. The holes are poked through, slightly, with a safety pin, or needle, perhaps, and the blowing happens through the drinking mouthpiece, otherwise, visually, the “top” of the can. 

Try it for yourself! It’s really a cute instrument to pull off, to wow your friends, compatriots, and passersby, alike. Try it with a squeeze pop!

Hear the individual sounds of the instrument, freshly capped with tar, from tobacco!
