q4 is here, you hungry?

listen up friend.

A cartoon billboard with the text "consider bork" flanked by two halves of a pigeon.

A graphic featuring the text "Content! No purchase necessary!"

A vintage advertisement for Bork. The ad features a large etching of a pink bork and uses bold lettering. The text promotes the product with the slogan, "Bred. Fed. Packed. BY OUR FAMILY BORK FARMERS SINCE 1848. No Middle Men!"

Bred. Fed. Packed.

Promotional sign for Ground Bork 85% Lean 15% Fat, displayed at an "Everyday Low Price" of $4.00 per pound, packaged in a 2 lb size.

A composite image of the moon. The moon is enclosed in a box. Inside of the box is a yellow circle. These shapes only change the colors of the photo and do no block it out.

What about tomorrow?

A black and white illustration with the text, "the computer keeps obscuring us" at the top, and "we must retvrn to clip art and system fonts" at the bottom. Centered in the image is a stylized illustration of an angel lifting a man off a cliff. At the bottom corners, there are groupings of simple flowers.

Bandwidth Exceeded

A teal, lightly speckled field. Five cream dots joined by pink lines form a constellation, the topmost dot haloed with smaller dots. A single flat white cloud crosses the middle, cutting the constellation in two.

A blurred night street rendered in thermal-camera colors: deep navy darkness with a huge yellow-orange glow blooming in the foreground and small orange lights receding down the block past silhouetted houses and poles.

A photograph looking up at a wooden utility pole against a clear blue sky. Crows perch on the crossarm and the wires, and a large orb-weaver spider sits at the center of a wide web strung beneath them. A helicopter passes in the distance at right.

Ceiling Spiders

A soft-focus photograph of a dried, blackened flower head on a bare stem against a pale grey-blue sky, with a second withered bud on a lower branch. Small white text reads "a new kind of possibility."

a new kind of possibility

An overhead photograph of a bleached fish skeleton, spine and ribs and skull intact, lying on a bed of sun-bleached crushed shells.

A blue-toned photograph of a small plastic skeleton figure hauling itself up over a rock ledge, one arm reaching for the top. The words "friday, huh?" appear twice, offset and overlapping.

A saturated, color-shifted photograph of pigeons on gravel and patchy grass, one in the foreground rendered in blue and lavender with another behind it. White text reads "get bread."

A macro photograph of a caterpillar with a mottled tan body and two glossy black head capsules, crawling across coarse teal woven fabric. Small white text reads "don't mind me, passing through."

passing through

A heavily dithered black-and-yellow halftone image in which a face dissolves into blooms of yellow light. Italic yellow text in the corner reads "LegacyPC."

A close-up of gravelly soil scattered with dry leaves and twigs, where two dozen or so dark blue-grey pillbugs cluster and crawl over each other. Text reads "*unintelligible*".

*unintelligible*

A vast flat blue sky with a single tiny heart-shaped balloon drifting near the center. The word "tgif" is set four times around it, each at a different rotation, one upside down.

A near-black frame streaked with motion-blurred hot pink and red. A pair of white eyeglass frames floats over the blur, a small orange spider hangs at top right, and a red checkerboard floor tilts across the bottom corner. Purple numerals read "15 00" and "6". Text reads "check your shoes."

check your shoes

A collage: an upside-down desert rock formation against a blue sky with circling birds, a black circle holding a red nebula resting on the horizon like a dark sun, and a band of glitched, pixel-smeared orange across the bottom. Black text reads "nevermind, bad idea."

nevermind, bad idea

Two cartoon figures in matching blue shirts stand shoulder to shoulder against a periwinkle sky, watching a small dark burning blob drift at left. Hand-lettering curves down their arms: "IS IT SUPPOSED TO DO THAT??" and "HMM MAYBE."

is it supposed to do that?

A blown-out cyan sky of clouds crossed by a thin contrail. A diamond-shaped window cut into the middle reveals deep blue open ocean where a white ferry cuts a wake. Small white text reads "invalid destination."

invalid destination

A pale yellow scene: a tiny head with spiky hair and dark sunglasses sits atop an impossibly long neck at left, watching an enormous navy scribbled mass that fills the right half of the frame. A small figure at its base raises one arm. Red hand-lettering reads "HMM" and, curving along the bottom, "THIS CAN'T BE GOOD."

this can't be good

On a dark purple background, a pale purple sketch of a boxy head with spiky hair and one large eye faces a bright green ball of frantic scribble. Handwritten text reads "yeah, probably not."

yeah, probably not

A grainy cream field fading to dark at the edges. A bare lightbulb lies glowing on the ground at left, trailing a wavy cord off-frame. At right, a potted plant with three yellow flowers casts a long shadow while small insects hover around it.

Loose orange line drawing on a deep plum background: a long scribbly creature with one eye and a spiky crest holds up a sparkler throwing yellow sparks. Handwritten text reads "Hmm, quite."

A halftone-dotted lavender sky over a cream ground. A large dark red segmented shape, like a caterpillar or a sausage, sails diagonally across the upper half. Below, a small insect on the horizon emits two jagged black lines. Scattered red rings dot the sky.

Listening. Learning.

Coral-red line art on dark navy: an ornate stack of layered, patterned shapes suggesting a boat or hull, with a crane arm extending to the right where a weighted line drops into a small ripple.

A grainy black-and-white drawing of a desert horizon: a saguaro cactus at left, low hatched mountains, and a small open circle of a sun on the horizon throwing long straight rays across a stippled sky.

A stylized character on lavender speckled paper: a melting, drooping face under a tall red ribbed hat, one wide eye staring out, with dripping white and yellow forms below that end in small hanging beads. Text reads "beef."

A cream background with a grey mountain-shaped house on a thin horizon line, a peach door at its base and three white-paned windows set into its slope. Handwritten brown text reads "Shhh... I'm thinking."

shhh...I'm thinking.

Black ink on off-white. A wild-haired, wide-mouthed figure recoils from an old CRT monitor displaying a large red exclamation mark, an exclamation point bursting over their head. A desk lamp and cables crowd the right side. Hand-lettering reads "TIME TO LOG OFF."

time to log off

Navy ink on white. A figure in a beaded headdress and a tall striped crown tapering to a sparking point holds a tiny notepad and pen, mouth pursed. Above, a small figure rides a starburst falling from the sky. Handwritten text reads "you're talking too fast."

A pale yellow scene: a round face fringed with short spikes lies in bed, blank-faced, head on a pillow with the covers pulled to the chin. Three lines of handwriting run across the blanket's folds: "Give me five...", "...fifteen...", "...maybe more?"

Black line art on mint green. A wide-eyed figure with an uneasy grin looks toward a disembodied hand holding out a small scribbled bundle. Handwritten text reads "Thanks, bud!"

A large pale figure smiles faintly against a light blue background, holding a tiny green-and-white flower up beside their face on a long thin arm. Handwritten text reads "oh, how nice."

Navy outline on off-white. A tall, thin, long-faced figure in shorts extends one open palm holding a tiny wisp of smoke, looking toward a floating one-eyed creature with horns and trailing tentacles. Text reads "don't."

A green-skinned man with slicked dark hair, sunglasses, a white tank top, and very hairy arms and chest holds out one arm, where a fly stands amid small yellow sparkles. The fly says "y?"; the man says "umm... no?"

A large speckled character with heavy-lidded eyes and a single purple-banded tuft of hair holds a plate of strawberries in one hand and a fork in the other, mouth turned down. Handwritten text reads "more good things need to happen."

Navy line art: a figure with tufted hair lunges to the right with both arms raised as a single drop falls from a faucet overhead. On the wall behind them, a warning sign with a droplet icon reads "LIQUID SWITCH" above a light switch. A side table at right holds a glass and a vase with a smiling flower.

The Liquid Switch

Navy ink on a star-flecked white background. A huge round face with a fringe of squiggly rays fills the lower right, mouth open in an O, raising one arm to point at a small jellyfish-like creature floating overhead. Text reads "wow!"

On a pink background, a fried chicken tender with big eyes, a wide grin, a red cowboy hat, and long french-fry legs hovers above its own shadow, saying "I ain't so bad!" A small pile of droppings with flies sits to the right. The caption below reads "Saul M. Nella."

A pink bird with a long yellow beak stands on a mossy green branch spanning a pale blue background. Hand-lettering reads "CHEAP."

Black ink on white. A round-headed character stares blankly ahead, clutching a phone in both hands. Behind them, a heavy-browed figure leans in with both arms outstretched. Handwritten text reads "No MORE Phone..."

no more phone...

A pale yellow figure with wild spiky hair and a thin mustache looks down with heavy-lidded satisfaction at the sandwich held in both hands, against a light blue background. Handwritten text reads "finally."
