I designed and created the packaging for BLÆRG’s "Auspices and Vagaries". The design was inspired by the themes BLÆRG explored in his music, and was intended to provide a rough retro-futuristic look. The design was laid out in Photoshop and then hand printed and assembled. The music was issued on a 3" CD-R, and the package was limited to 50 copies.

"Ever watch a 60’s movie set in the future? The kind where the sets are stark white with oddly shaped chairs in bright colors that don’t look the least bit comfortable, where the cars fly but are roughly the size of pontoons, where people get their meals by speaking into little boxes and out pops a plate with a small, unnaturally colored cube on it? Yes, it all looks futuristic and ultra-modern but it still, without a doubt, is stamped with the impression of an era long past and it’s still really cool.
BLÆRG’s latest release, a 3″ CD by the name of “Auspices and Vagaries” is the perfect score to a meal of Soylent Orange or for a drink at the milk bar. It stirs together bits of futuristic rhythms, strains of jazzy flavor and a splash of retro flair into a wonderful little breakcore appetizer that leaves the palate whetted and the appetite craving more."
