I honestly didn't even know him, but I searched for his work (I found him under the name Al though, not Magnus 🤔) now you've mentioned him and I am obsessed 😍 so he might become my new favourite!

Fun drawing I did this morning. A bit messy but I still like it! (done with my most recent flirt, a maru nib 👌)

In search of a rare, only once seen butterfly, Pauline and Tyler venture to a remote island. Fluttering and flittering, their discovery evokes a unique response in each of them, testing their relationship to its natural limit.
'Tropisms' is a new comic from @vincentlalalau.bsky.social!

Detail of a wip at the back of a comic page that didn't work out. For now I've called it 'Unearthing and Re-burying"

AI filmmaking is peeing. It’s pooping. It’s throwing up. It’s a new kind of liquid coming out. It’s hated by the establishment. It’s what goes in the toilet. It’s wet. It’s what’s in the bathroom.

AI filmmaking and storytelling is punk rock. It’s hip hop. It’s counterculture. It’s a new type of creativity. It’s a new medium. It’s hated by the mainstream film and art establishment. It resists ideology. It ignores gate keeping. It’s uncomfortable. It’s scary. It’s viral. It’s accessible. It’s refreshing. It’s welcoming. It’s here.
