Yeah, I?m still alive. I was messing around with some photos today trying to make an avatar and did some funky stuff along the way. I wish I would?ve made those last few bigger, but I made them after I had already resized. I swear, these patterns just create themselves.

I like the 1st and 4th ones. The 1st one has a real feeling of "penetration," but it may just be sick and wrong of me to see that in it...

Those are beautiful adrug! You were missed. 
How about a short funky stuff tutorial? Are you working in Illustrator or is it all Photoshop? Vectors? Filters? How'd you do that?!?

I missed your presence too, adrug. Stick around this time!
great stuff, reminds me of the Boards of Canada - Geogaddi album art. I love the first one and the second to last one.

those would make good wall hangings.
They're also prime doo rag designs. You must make me a doo rag.

Thank you boys! I made all of those in Photoshop using photography of my own as a base, no vectors involved. Its all about symmmetry and layer effects. Here's a quick "funky stuff" tutorial for you, 3rdPerson. 
DESTROY - take an image or a shape, and just totally destroy it, swirl it around, blur it, whatever you can to distort it significantly
DUPLICATE - take your layer you've destroyed, make a copy of it, then rotate it (repeat duplication and rotation as needed to create symmetrical patterns)
EFFECTS - then I go nuts over in the layer palette with the layer effects, testing out overlays and screens and such on each layer and how it affects the layers below it...no science to it really, I just go visually.

You can also use the Fade option- Ctrl+Shift+F after fucking up a pitcure (i do it after every effect) and choose differance or another one near that one by just pushing the up or down arrow keys and your image will change. Click okay to choose the effect you want.

What if everything around you
Isn't quite as it seems?
What if all the world you think you know,
Is an elaborate dream?
And if you look at your reflection,
Is it all you want it to be?
