First I made a large silkscreen design. Then my friend, Bill Homans, wanted it for the cover of his album, (first release), Merry Airbrakes. Next I used the artwork to create a metal plating in tin/lead, & nickle, with the copper etched away to reveal the blue backing. Finally years later, I scanned it for this animation, Merry Airbreaks (21, 770K).

Change is the Way of Nature.
Meet change within yourself. Understand your own Opposition to change. Regard other people's ideas. Adjust your thinking. Don't be Stupid. Think positively
Use Influence judiciously. Assume responsibility. Generate a Following. Organize before you implement. Put resources to work. Do not step on your Friends
Change is both internal and external
The Image
Light up the Earth. Know your own feelings. Employ Imagination. Be Gracious.
