What’s with the weird title… and… what the heck is it??
The title is from the text in the drawing, with the addition of the year (1988) in which I drew the original.
I re-drew this (whatever “this” is) in Affinity Designer for iPad, with the aim of keeping it as true to the original pencil drawing as possible. After my first iteration of the re-draw, I realized 2 things were missing in the original: an on-off switch, and a base on which the whole mechanism lives. One other glaring omission might be what the actual function is. But such is the beauty of art – there is no requirement or rule to always reflect reality. After a few modifications, the final version is still very close to the original.
I can’t tell you what the mechanism of this drawing is supposed to do or be used for. Even if you follow the circuitry/mechanics of the drawing, there does not seem to be an apparent outcome (seems a little like a closed loop of purpose). I’ll let you know if/when I find out.
Fun fact: The original pencil drawing measures only 5.75″ x 4.75″ – partly a testament to how good my eyesight was back then!
I took things a step further and created an alternate piece of artwork based on this drawing. Get it now on a poster or t-shirt.
