Weekly Geek<\/a>: <\/p> This is a piece entitled “Obsessed” that I did as part of my degree back in 2005. It was a combination digital\/analog piece, with two parts. The first part is the painting\/collage, comprised of all my Game Boy Advance game boxes and manuals I had saved up over the years. I am a compulsive box-saver, and it was quite the sacrifice to cut them all up, I tell you what.<\/p><\/blockquote>
Sure, it looks<\/i> pretty damn cool, but think of all those game boxes that would’ve had swell homes with me<\/i>. Anyway, if you’re intrigued or want to see the collage in its full glory, go check it out at his site.<\/a> And if the appeal of the wholesale murder<\/i> of beautiful game packaging for art gets your motor running, you can even bid on it on eBay<\/a>. Savages!<\/i>
