I should have done that. There is definitely a discrepancy between the upper half of my faceplate and the bottom half. I should have lined them up but I kept getting tripped up by the thought that its a an ultra-wide lens and how much larger things should be closer to the camera. If I had done some preliminary measurements I probably would have been able to recognize my problem. I couldn't get myself to continue work on this tonight but I am working on something else (vector art) which is cracking me up at the moment. Thanks for the kind words though. You too RabbitEars! Until tomorrow. Thanks for the advice Jared! I should have done that. There is definitely a discrepancy between the upper half of my faceplate and the bottom half.

My thoughts on the hex perspective are to use a method that I often employ when doing vector work, take the bottom edge of your gray "faceplate" and duplicate it then drag it down to the top of your hex buttons and make sure they line up perfectly with that, then do the same for the bottom edge of the hex buttons and so on and so on for all the white shapes that create the hex surface. This is hard to explain... The only reason I'm saying to use the bottom edge of your faceplate is because I think that's the part that the viewer naturally wants everything else to line up to. Hopefully this made a tiny bit of sense and helped you. I know you'll get it either way, this is just a short cut I use. Awesome work! Three words: super bad ass!

I'm happy to help. I wish I could see you do that drum/midi performance live. It's just the type of thing I totally dig. @bite - I'm so excited to hear your track that has a bit of my sample in it. Did you use the german bells. I have to say probably the most magical moment of the tour. @rabbitears - I have seen your stuff. Your blog actually inspired give Inkscape another shot. There's aspects of it that are so PC that it's very unintuitive on a mac. I especially like your small stone pedal piece. Thanks you guys! @ Jared, don’t mention it. I’m happy to help.

I have so many favorites these 180 days, especially all posts with music or video involve,and really love all your photos and when you speak with people in the street to do something creative ;) My favorite post was day 72: My favorite recording i was so impressed that i sample you! Only a little sound but it fits perfectly on the song i was working during these days. The song is called Youth and its included on monome community tour.I miss you on this cd ;) I hope at least you like the song. It is part of a soundtrack that I'm preparing for a documentary for a friend about teenagers so i try to be positive ;) This comment it,s too long too ;) Stay creative and all the best for the next 180 days and more...

Your vector work looks really clean. Glad you found a software solution that did what you wanted. Congrats on the no smoking (I'm still hating it/doing it), and the half way point! Also, thank you so much for snagging my album and t-shirt. That means so much to me. Awesome! Your vector work looks really clean. Glad you found a software solution that did what you wanted.
