Blender head - As Seen on TV made using Art Alive!
3Ever get the feeling your brain is leaking out of every hole? Like someone shoved a mixer in your skull and gave your insides a good whisking? Blenderhead does.
Even when looking calm at the beach, nothing behind the shades is working like it should. I know Blenderhead resonates with a lot of people. I’ve been described as chilled out. Rarely do I feel
relaxed. Drawing, painting and art are some of the few things I feel I can totally focus on.
I called this collection of images As Seen on TV because once you turn the console off, the original is lost forever. There’s no way to save the originals of these pieces. There’s no storage on the cartridge and there’s no export options in the software.
By using screencapture software I was able to save copies of the artwork and record how it was created. I also took photos of each piece once they were done to capture how they appeared in their original form on an old CRT television.
Sega's Art Alive! has a lot of limitations. 16 colours, a control pad for input and no way to save your work, but I wanted to create something beautiful. 'As Seen on TV' is a collection of art made using a Sega Mega Drive, a control pad and a copy of Art Alive!. I recorded the screen to capture the process knowing the original drawing would be lost as I turned the system off.
