From Alec: "Originally, I used painting styles to convey my music but realized this did not represent my use of sampling. I chose collages because they are a metaphor for a song using samples. I also explored typography in the album covers. Experiments with fonts, placements, and sizes allowed me to fully encapsulate my message within the 12x24 album cover. My own writing samples were incorporated. As my sustained investigation went on, my ability to show balance and form through typography flourished. I used different magazine ads from the '70s to convey messages of success, self reinvention, and damnation."
