Distortion Rectrix // The New Insane
Creation is liberation from nothingness. That is the creed of EidolonEntropy.
My work is a response to the things I find to be absent in the media landscape today. I borrow cartoonish sensibilities from older works restricted by the technology of the time and merge it with a neotribal futurism, reflecting the biggest theme of my work: DUALITY. I wish to create experiences that are both fun and enjoyable while encouraging a deeper interaction and engagement with the ideas they present. Above all else is the inclusion of a certain maturity and depth that I find absolutely integral to the best stories.
I create largely in the realm of the digital, using creative problem solving to approach production, following no standard rules. I make technology work for me; no one else will attack a problem the same way I do, and that is my secret weapon. My work pulls the best from both 2D and 3D sensibilities, using my interdisciplinary background to make something unique and striking. I owe my inspiration to artists of all sorts including Michael Emerson, Marilyn Manson and Tim Schafer, though nothing but the most niche is quite like EidolonEntropy.
Interactivity and external contribution has always been a vital aspect of my work. From both a production standpoint and an audience standpoint, my work thrives in collaboration. By presenting my worlds as games, I can tell you a story that is just as much about you and your choices as it is about the characters you see. I hope to provide ideas from beyond the hypothetical and make you question them, yourself, the world around you, and meaning itself. All is IN THE NAME OF LOVE.
Raise eidolons, defy entropy.

All the seven deadly sins are man's true nature. To be greedy. To be hateful. To have lust. Of course, you have to control them, but if you're made to feel guilty for being human, then you're going to be trapped in a never-ending sin-and-repent cycle that you can't escape from.
You know what's hard about being the smartest person in the world? Everyone else is stupid.
I [think] that without scars, emotional and physical, you can't really find yourself. It doesn't mean you should want to have scars, it's just that the people who have gone through the hardest points in their life growing up, tend to be [...] people who I find to be great artists.
Tell me what you regard as your Greatest Strength,
so I will know how to undermine you;
Tell me of your Greatest Fear,
so I will know which I must force you to face;
Tell me what you Cherish most,
so I will know what to take from you;
And tell me what you Crave,
so that I must deny you.
Though the chains of destiny may bind you, though you may be fated to fight, know that a noble heart is as strong as a diamond, and as free as golden wind in the sky. Though you may be imprisoned in a sea of stone, you can keep walking toward the light. There's always a blessing waiting in the wings, and as many signposts to guide you as there are stars in the sky.
Unwinding is the mortal coil that drives the gears to tick and toil, until at last, it rests, unwound, and we lay silent in the ground.
For every person who dreams up the electric light bulb, there's the one who dreams up the atom bomb.
We are all just frequencies in the same beam of light, rainbow-bound and bonded.
Observing doesn't simply mean to look. It means to look carefully. It doesn't mean to just listen, it means to listen well.
Make love, not war. Actually, make war. And love. MAKE IT ALL.
If it looks like a duck, and quacks like a duck, we have at least to consider the possibility that we have a small aquatic bird of the family anatidae on our hands.
Be true to yourself,
don't miss your chance;
And you won't end up like the fool who ripped his pants.

Bodies of Works
Series of works are as follows:
Sins Series
An exploration of both the positive and negative manifestations of the cardinal sins. Each piece portrays characters from Takeover as one of them falls victim to sin, while another uses it to benefit themselves. These sins are personified through the feline demigods Omega Antediluvians. With wisdom, these 'sins' can either be one's greatest asset or biggest weakness.
Frutiger Series
Each work in this series features a Takeover character with a unique colour palette, identifying pose, and signature shape. They are a study of both character and design, with each entry used on products available here.
Grunge Series
These works blend modern style with a dirty, old painting feel to portray the members of the Blackstar family. Each has a position relative to each other that matches the fates and trajectories of the pictured character. If they were to be printed, they are intended to be done on metal or an otherwise holographic material.
