Blacky is the man to ask this or maybe some of you could inform me about this . About the cover art ( or any other illustrations in the Nothingface album ) , Does the original works for the Nothingface album still exists ? Cause since i don't do drugs anymore ( well ... exept weed ) i have now the cash to buy one of these original works ( if it has existed or if it still exist ) . I don't know who done these ( don't have my old nothingfacecassette and i'm still looking for the cd ... heh ) and i would like to know . but frankly , i'm not interrested in the artist , it's the fact that it's some voivod art

Any help would be really appreciated

* dreams to have the Sub-effect, Into my hypercube , Missing sequences or Nothingface original artwork in his living room *

That's so funny. Away did all the artwork. Perhaps it's time to ditch the weed too?

eek ! like we say here : '' criss de séquelle ! ''... lol i didn't knew that it was Away who done that =/ shame on me ... Well , be comprehensive : i bought the nothingface cassette back in 92 or 93 ... so when you have 18 and doing everything available to '' break on throught to the other side '' , this is some stuff you don't care about those things sometimes at this age ... Plus , with a daily dose of T ,H & C vitamins , it's something that can be easy to forgot ...

Anyway it's even better now i know that away done the artworks , would it be possible that someone answers to my previous post ( not by quoting 3 or 4 words that you find cool to elaborate a machavelian plan to make peoples look like they are freshly new to voivod ... ) ? Well ?

Peut etre j'me serais moins fait teté par l'autre bozo d'en haut si j'aurais commencé ma discussion en francais ? criss ...

En t ka ... j'aimerais ben avoir des contacts au cas ou ca serait possible de me procurer une de ces oeuvres .

P.s. Pis comme disait Gerry , marci !!!

Nevermind nothingface and his silliness.

Keep smoking the Weed, Man!

You are looking for Origional ARTWORK?
Or is it the Origional CD?

Away has never produced an Art Book yet.
Although we all have been prodding him to do so for YEARS...us Drummers are a bit slow.

Any ORIGIONAL Artwork for that Album are either still held by Away himself, or maybe the Record Label.
Interresting question though!

Cheers!

I'm looking for the original artworks One more thing i would like to know if those artworks still exists is , what is the approximative size of the originals ?

Interestingly enough, I have been working on cleaning up a quicktime file of the "Psychic Vacuum" video which contains early versions/animations of some of that Nothingface artwork. I'd post it but the filesize is too big still (140mg)... gotta get it through Mediacleaner somehow!

Interresting , so if those artworks were made on a computer , maybe a copy of those files would be somewhere in one of Blacky's boxes ?

*edit- btw , if the files are saved in a format that only amiga ( or other old PC ) handles , no problem , there's some amiga emulators easily available on the net *

The Amiga was a computer that was around from the mid to late 80s through the early 90s and was especially geared towards graphics, animation, and video production. Back in the day they could handle hefty graphic and video projects that would have killed your Apple or Windows machine at the time. I think Apple crushed 'em when they took over that market... not really sure. I never owned one, but used them often in early film & video classes. Actually, there are still people who use 'em too! If your still curious, check around on Google, there's guys writing new programs for these machines all the time!

Blacky - What the fuck!?
Snake - Why is he driving a tractor?
Piggy - He's not driving it...he pedaling it along with his hands.
Away - Hey, fuck you guys..you haven't heard the concept behind it yet...
Blacky - ha ha ha ha ha haaaaaaa (falls over from smoking pot too much)

Straight from the horse's mouth...

Here's an excerpt of the '89 "Voivod live à MusiquePlus", in which Away talk of the conception and production of the Nothingface artwork.
