"Sometime in the near future in a reality not so far away advanced technology has become indistinguishable from magic. 

A gathering of Technomancers against dystopia is born. 
Armed with open source grimoires. 
Codebreaking the occult. 
Hackers of the arcane. 

MASTERS OF TECHNOMANCY"

Did you do this with the help of some special program or is it a long work with layers?

I so wish you would work with Mind.In.A.Box, their albums are just majestic to me and your art would make the cd just perfect.

Nice use of the transparent effects and the holograms look very convincing! The dark shading on the character is a nice touch to the cover as well

Love the way you create simulate glitches.

But, have you ever tried real glitch art?
You might gain some insight in how real glitches can work.
And it's also a lot of fun.

Valenberg In reply to I-m-a-g-i-r-o [2016-02-20 11:24:04 +0000 UTC]

Yeah want to do that. Have you experience with that?

You should definitively try it out if you want to, it's actually not that hard.
The simplest method is:

1 - open a file in an unusual way, like opening a .jpg or a .gif in a texteditor or in audio-editing software
2 - modify the file slightly, add, remove, loop, copy, paste, reverse, relocate text/information/audio/ect
3 - save your modified file
4 - open it like you would normally
5 - ???
6 - profit

Try looking for tutorials on youtube, and experiment!
It might not always work, you can permanently damage your files, such that they won't open anymore.
Different file formats and modification create different results, gifs produce the most interesting distortions.
