The Machine

[aviruserothanatoguru]

Slave of instincts, Taken under control. Built into the program, Like zero and one.

How to escape? Hack the firmware? The system is active, Hunters are searching. Bugs are their food.

This is some kind of grimdark cyberpunk, ladies and gentlemen:

Quote: "British General John Fuller is considered the 'father' of the theory of tank warfare. …

An interesting passage from "The Reformation of War": "Man," writes Fuller, "has become the slave of the machine; not only does he himself seem a cog in the machine, but the whole world seems to him a complex interweaving of gears, grinding each other to pieces." Here, Fuller eloquently expressed the principle of capitalism's relationship to the worker, whom capital turns into a living appendage of the machine, and therefore, from the point of view of the bourgeois activist, this "appendage" has no right to a normal human life.

The bourgeoisie does not want to deal with mass armies composed of such a "restless element" as the working class. Such an army will be potentially revolutionary, because no matter how hard the bourgeoisie tries to intoxicate the working class with tales of defending the fatherland in an imperialist war, it will not deceive the masses for long. Impossible. Bourgeois ideologists are trying to put an end to the problem of "psychology," that is, class relations in war. They constantly declare the army apolitical, dreaming of turning it into a mechanical "gathering of living automatons," ready to go wherever they are ordered and shoot whomever they are ordered.

It was like this - one day, a swan, a crab, and a pike ... stop, that's not the right text ... here it is ...

It was like this - we once drew a picture with the intention of creating a possible print for the band Grace Disgraced https://gracedisgraced.bandcamp.com/

Crush me with a proton star, but yes, yes, I liked this music. It sounds like a non-trivial black death metal with atmospheric inserts, as if the millstones of the mechanisms that process matter are breaking free from the dark depths of the cold cosmos. The album is a single artistic work and an author's statement. Spoiler - the vocalist sings in Russian.

I created a drawing for the "Slavic Grimdark" series.The maelstrom of unresolved conflicts and the infighting of transnational monopolies have plunged the world into the darkness of militarization and cyberpunk.Hiding behind a mask of duplicity, the spawn of the brown plague weave a web of myths and medieval obscurantism..

Leaving aside the lyrics, the plot and so on, the main purpose of creating this illustration was to work out a few purely technical aspects:

1) to combine as much of the narrative as possible, i.e. actions and events, into a single image. To see how it works and what results it gives.

2) to experiment with some compositional techniques used by book illustrators and comic book artists, which I am currently studying.

Track lyrics. Quote: "This single tells about the time when science has stepped far ahead and began to implement ideas on the fusion of technology and biology…"

The music is a solid, conceptual mix of death and black metal with cool atmospheric inserts.

Respect for the metal music and the choice of the warhammer 40K theme!

Vampire cyberpunk.

A graphic element for decoration/design. Icon, emblem, vignette, etc. I tried to combine the feeling of a vampire and cyberpunk.

Das Kapital. (Bred for war) I decided to further complicate the drawing that I drew earlier.

To train my imagination and composition skills, I set myself the task of trying to create a more complex composition and at the same time keep it easy to "read" + fit a longer storyline into one drawing.

"The Last Bastion" is a single by the HUMAN TIME project. Cover.

The cover for the first single "The Last Bastion" of the upcoming album of the project "Human Time"  https://humantime.bandcamp.com/album/single-2025 HUMAN TIME Official lyrics video YouTube : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FRWly1q1OPo No later than yesterday, I drew an illustration for the design of a cool-themed music album - a dark future consumed by soulless technology, an atmosphere of noir and cyberpunk, without colorful "sparkles" and glamorous "plastics." Man and machine, living flesh and technology - what?, where?, for what?. To draw such a thing is just a celebration! I think fans of the visual design of the first Terminator, The Matrix, Doom3, warhammer 40K, and so on. - I think they will understand me.
