"Is it really so sad and dangerous to be fed up with seeing with your eyes, breathing with your lungs, swallowing with your mouth, talking with your tongue, thinking with your brain, having an anus and larynx, head and legs? Why not walk on your head, sing with your sinuses, see through your skin, breathe with your belly: the simple Thing, the Entity, the full Body, the stationary Voyage, Anorexia, cutaneous Vision, Yoga, Krishna, Love, Experimentation. Where psychoanalysis says, 'Stop, find your self again,' we should say instead, 'Let’s go further still, we haven’t found our BwO yet, we haven’t sufficiently dismantled our self.' Substitute forgetting for anamnesis, experimentation for interpretation. Find your body without organs. Find out how to make it. It’s a question of life and death, youth and old age, sadness and joy. It is where everything is played out." - Deleuze & Guattari, "A Thousand Plateaus: Capitalism and Schizophrenia," 1980. . . . . . . . . . . . #bwo #design #darkambient #drone #albumart

Some more public pieces. I love seeing how they slowly (or quickly) change.

"It was deep calling into deep, - the deep that my own struggle had opened up within being answered by the unfathomable deep without, reaching beyond the stars [...] The perfect stillness of the night was thrilled by a more solemn silence. The darkness held a presence that was all the more felt because it was not seen. I could not any more have doubted that He was there than that I was. Indeed, I felt myself to be, if possible, the less real of the two." - An anonymous clergyman, sourced from William James' "The Varieties of Religious Experience" . . . . . . . . . . . . . #occultart #macabre #occult #blackmetal #horror #mixedmedia #darkness #darkambient

Keys to the kingdom

"Comic Book," 2022. . This piece was made during a very formative period in my life, and much of my work at this time was spent exploring chance and indeterminacy. To work with forces outside of your control, whether you believe them to be supernatural or coincidental, continues to be an important part of my work to this day. "Comic Book" was incredibly important in learning this, as was "in illo tempore" and in my work with Efface. . This piece is a sort of "negative" collage. Every figure and shape that had been cut out was deliberately chosen and removed from 35 pages, with the backing card shown on the last slide being used as the cutting mat. Can you tell what is missing? What can be realized when a story, a singular work, a genre, or even a medium has its most vital component removed? Can I really claim this to be my own work? What can be gained from loss? . This post only provides the first 10 pages from this piece. The work in full can be viewed on my portfolio site tonymillerart.com by clicking on the cover artwork within. . . . . . #collage #indeterminacy #conceptualart #analogcollageart #mixedmedia

in illo tempore, 2022 Mixed media collage, 10" x 11 4/5" . A reupload of one of my favorites with a proper scan this time. “No event is unique, nothing is enacted but once […] every event has been enacted, is enacted, and will be enacted perpetually; the same individuals have appeared, appear, and will appear at every turn of the circle. Cosmic time is repetition and anakuklosis, eternal return.” – Henri-Charles Puech, as cited in Mircea Eliade’s Myth of the Eternal Return (1965) . . . . . . #collage #mixedmedia #landscape #albumartwork #albumart #abstract #eliade

Collage, 2025. “It is true that war kills, and hideously mutilates. But it is especially true after the State has appropriated the war machine. Above all, the State apparatus makes the mutilation, and even death, come first. It needs [its subjects] preaccomplished, for people to be born that way, crippled and zombie-like. The myth of the zombie, of the living dead, is a work myth and not a war myth....The State apparatus needs, at its summit as at its base, predisabled people, preexisting amputees, the still-born, the congenitally infirm” - Deleuze and Guattari, A Thousand Plateaus . . . . . . . . #collage #powerviolence #powerelectronics #darkambient #tapemusic #albumart #diyart #occultart

Album covers I have made for @effacethe releases "Tell" (2025), "Plaint" (2024), "Fares Over" (2024), and "Shroud" (2023). With our shared values of creativity and its execution as well as album artwork being one of my favorite creative mediums, these pieces are some that I am most proud of to this day. These can all be viewed on tonymillerart.com and these releases can be listened to wherever you choose to digitally stream music. . . . . #albumartwork #designinspiration #graphicdesign #albumart #albumcoverdesign #musicartwork #gigflyer #tapemusic #avantfolk #darkambient
