Currently, I’m overseeing the design & development of a new automobile line and its Visual Integration System, which is a whole lot of fun … but I don’t think I should be talking too much about that yet. I’ve expanded into a number of different disciplines since, and keep taking on new challenging projects. That was like a lifetime ago, in terms of the development of my design skills and expertise. How has your style developed since the first two designs you had printed at Threadless? I think I know what’s coming, but what inspires you? Also, the plurals of buffalo are buffalo, buffalos, and buffaloes. And, well, you can guess what happens next. Now, these buffalo from Buffalo that were buffaloed by these other buffalo from Buffalo, well, they go on to buffalo some totally unrelated buffalo from Buffalo. Well, its about these buffalo from Buffalo that buffalo these other buffalo from Buffalo. Why did you choose “BuffaloBuffaloBuffalo?” as your brand name? The buffalo that buffalo from Buffalo buffalo. You have an Artist Shop too! What inspired you to open up an artist shop? Is that the show where the third guy from Two Guys, a Girl and Pizza Place plays Han Solo, and Steve the Pirate plays his Chewbacca? I think I may have caught a few episodes. “Leaf on the Wind”…have you seen Serenity ? I combined the two concepts with the photograph of a leaf discovered on the ground, and there you go. Well, I modeled it after the work of Adolph Gottlieb – an American abstract painter that I always admired – whose work always had a very strong similarity to classic Japanese calligraphy. How did you create this design? It has such a unique, calligraphy look to it! Oh, me? I’m just a regular icosahedron with 20 faces and 12 vertices, flowing through the six dimensions of time and space in the trifold duality of a fancy man suit.
We talked to botnet about this design, about buffalos, and about more buffalos (you’ll see).Ĭheck out what he had to say below! (spoiler alert: it’s mainly “buffalo”) “botnet” created a beautiful, simple design that looks both like calligraphy while also looking like a person literally made out of a leaf floating on the wind. Whatever the four-word sentence may mean to you, one thing’s for certain: it’s super fitting for the winner of our Japanese Art challenge, in more ways than one. The saying “Leaf in the Wind” can mean something different to everyone the title of a Legend of Korra episode, an inspirational message about life, a super sad scene in Serenity (Joss Whedon’s character killing spree must be stopped!)
