Flyer and Poster Design: FUTARO Acoustic Live at Cotton Dancer

This is my latest Flyer and Poster design works. Size is A3 and A6, printed to the natural paper and cardboard paper printed by RISOGRAPH. The coloring is the fluorescence orange and the navy to the A3 poster, and the vermilion and navy to the A6 flyer. Imaged from the late 1960's Psychedelic posters and the modern old school Reggae and Dub posters, the album cover artworks and the flyers. The top's logo is the original style of handwriting which I processed and was designed. It is written as the FUTARO with the Japanese Chinese character. This Chinese character was simplified from the formal style of handwriting. And I am future-like a figure and gave the worn-out feeling by aging to this character. Since it is printed by RISOGRAPH, printing is reproduced by multiplication with glassiness. Therefore, the portion with which the color has overlapped was transparent and the back color has overlapped. I traced and drew his photograph whose illustration of an artist is a performer by the AI. FUTARO which is a performer is the Folk-Rock musician. I drew the fender tele caster's neck which he has always used regularly. The following is his profile.

 Futaro’s messages in his lyrics permeates in to changing the clock hand into slow flow with the beat over the music divide with warm ambient. He encourages gently people who live the time made closely packed. And the heart of the rich susceptibility sometimes throws social various inconsistencies and questions into relief, and tells the tragedy which man's ego produced. Just like a Bob Marley...

Live on 2014 Sunday 22nd June. Floor open at 8pm - Performance start at 9pm. Entrance fee is 1,500 JPY with needs 1 drink order. Live at Bar Cotton Dancer. 11 min. walk from Kokura Station, Kitakyushu-City, Fukuoka, Japan.

Flyer Design: Minami Masato Live at Cotton Dancer

This is my latest flyer design work for the Bar Cotton Dancer. I love the silk screen poster of a psychedelic movement which was in fashion late in the 60s. And I also like the propaganda poster of a communist country. By using the ink of the fluorescent color which employed the characteristic of the silk screen print efficiently, the psychedelic poster has heightened the eye catch effect. A psychedelic poster carries out the visualization of the hallucination by LSD, takes LSD, and can appreciate an art like a kaleidoscope like the mandala. The vision effect by LSD will not be acquired so much, since I created this flyer without taking LSD. Since I did not have the cost which makes a silk screen, I decided to utilize Risograph. Risograph is the printing machine which a Riso company made in Japan. It can print in a high speed, budget prices, and the special color like a laser beam printer. Risograph can use fluorescence pink and a fluorescence orange. Riding of ink is bad like Toppan Printing, and a photograph has the noise blurred like a newspaper. Since I had arranged the photograph of a deep color at the back, the color on the back was transparent and the surface logo portion failed in me. Paper is using the bad thin paper of quality like recycled paper, and became the result which has the flavor of tactile feeling coarsely in the bottom. Since it brews the feeling which is completely different from the printed matter of offset printing in a general coated paper in the present age, it becomes a good eye catch.

About Minami Masato
Masato Minami is an artist representing Japan of Folk-Rock. He reached 70 years old in born one in 1944. He is the keyman who visited America before the psychedelic movement and inherited the hippie culture to Japan. He is a singer whom the scenery that perform many live in Japan or Thailand and children are playing out in the fields under the tree suits very well. I am looking at his live from ten years or more before. "Niji no Misaki Matsuri" performed in Aso looked at his live first. I have appreciated his live at the festival since then every year, and was allowed to soften a feeling very much.

DOPE EYE "Drop Acid not Bombs!!"

The Vietnam War age when love and peace were cried for, and the young man that does not want to be conscripted ran away from home, and became a hippie. However, it does not escape fighting. In order to avoid the battle with Chinese people, Tibetans committed suicide by fire. Their message made Sekai's people think by performance called suicide by fire. China will be exposed to blame from people in the world. Probably, it will be easier than the direction to fight avoids a battle. The message which put anger to such the world is offered. It is never playing a trick.

Think.


Recently, the town rubble collapsed came to our town by earthquake and tsunami. It is because our mayor accepted it. Citizens are worried that radioactivity may have adhered to rubble. My friend caused the demonstration in order to prevent it. It was going to stand in front of the track loading with rubble, and was going to prevent carrying in. However, it was arrested by two persons. They were agitated by Facebook and the twitter. The agitator of the demonstration is speaking ill of the bad influence of rubble by the own blog. A friend does not know that a certain profits are concerned with the agitator of a demonstration. They were trifled with and used. If you are out of Japan, all Japan will consider being polluted with radioactivity by it. I will think that north will be polluted if you are in the south in Japan similarly. Although the atomic bomb dropped to Hiroshima destroyed Hiroshima completely, it was one city level. Even as for the atomic bomb developed in order to kill people, there was only only one  influence. This time, the nuclear power plant completely destroyed from tsunami flowed out few radioactivity. Mass media was cried for all over the world with the big speaker. Becoming nervous can be understood. however, it is the same as the housewife who thinks that the news of TV is seen, it resembles the whole neighborhood, and the murderous fiend lurks. It is dangerous to believe the information which flows from mass media, and the information which has fallen on the Internet of you as it is.
