Cd Design - Blog Posts

I actually finished the Apollo CD design portion of my own personal project that I mentioned back when I posted the Artemis half of the project.

Of course, I’ve made Apollonian gaskets central to the design of this particular set...as well as the sun, because Apollo is a sun god.

I decided to make myself an album design project centered around something I used to doodle a lot in my early college years—Sierpinski gaskets and Apollonian gaskets. (Incidentally, I think I may have found the one thing that’s easier to draw traditionally than digitally...but perhaps that’s because I’ve been drawing a lot of economics graphs for exams for the past four years, so I’m used to drawing geometric things by hand at this point.)

While I know there’s no such thing as an “Artemesian Gasket”, I decided to assign Sierpinski gaskets to Artemis, because Apollo and Artemis are supposed to be diametrically opposed twins, and triangles are the opposite of circles, imo (because triangles have the bare minimum of three points for a shape, and circles have theoretically infinite points on their circumferences.)

I’m currently working on Apollo at this time, and I’ll showcase that one in the near future.

(Oh, and as full disclosure, the mock-up file I used is here.)
