About Me

Hello! I’m Julian, a graphic designer & photographer. My goal is to tell stories through disruptive design. My work has been described by my peers and clients as edgy, dreamy, experimental, and glitchy. This is because I draw inspiration from glitch art, punk design, and grunge design. I am also heavily inspired by music, as I have the ability to visualise lyrics, melodies, and rhythms.

RUCKUS!

RUCKUS! is an indie/alternative music zine. In the context of the zine indie/alternative refer to styles of music that share an ethos of authenticity, DIY culture, and general defiance of mainstream music norms.

The purpose of this zine is:
1. Promote indie/alternative music by celebrating the musical achievements of already established indie/alternative acts, and promote smaller, up and coming acts.
2. Explore the visual culture of indie/alternative music and the importance of supporting visuals in music.

This zine includes artworks based on song lyrics from 5 different artists (Death Grips, Father Deer Hands, toe, Loathe, and Origami Angel). As well as, artist bios, personal anecdotes, and music recommendations.
