Owen Freeman - New Burrough's book covers


The William Burroughs paperbacks that I illustrated earlier this year along with Naked Lunch just arrived from the printers. Because the art director liked the style of the Silky Shark print in my portfolio for the initial Naked Lunch assignment, I continued the process using a silk screen-style approach and a limited palette throughout the sketches and finals. The Soft Machine, The Ticket That Exploded, and The Place of Dead Roads all followed the same process as Naked Lunch, including two or three layers of drawn tones, which I attempted to keep in tune with the style of each book and as a set. The final layouts and text were done by Jo Walker at Harper Collins and I think they did a nice job of pulling the artwork together.

New Idea Society - Quiet Prism EP

New Idea Society is Mike Law and Chris DeAngelis, along with new members Trevor Watson and Marshall Ryan.
During 2008 New Idea Society was involved in a serious accident on Germany's Autobahn while on tour - as a result, main songwriter/vocalist/guitarist Mike Law was unable to play guitar. During his recovery period, he composed a number of songs, including Iradell and They Won't Find Us, on vintage synthesizers.
These tracks, along with the debut of the brand new song Autumn You (the first release from their upcoming full-length out later in 2010), and two other guitar-based tracks, make up the Quiet Prism EP.

Quiet Prism is a collection of songs created within a time of solitude and recovery. The songs are a prelude to
the larger scope and scale of the upcoming album. Some of the songs can even be classified as solo efforts, as Mike Law attempted to work every day, mostly alone in Brooklyn's Translator Audio while waiting for bones to heal.
New Idea Society (NIS) will tour the U.S., Europe and Japan in late 2010, in support of their upcoming full-length release.
