The one stop thread for Techno-Mage issues I deemed "finished" to be pinned. Several stories were started that didn't finish, like 'Back to Back', or 'Hotpatch'.

You can also find the following (and more) here: https://analognowhere.com/techno-mage

Originally sorted by seeming story chronology, but new issues always go to the top.

Either way, if you enjoy what I make, I'm glad.

I may not totally understand surrealism, so forgive me if this sounds ignorant, but the episodes you never finished just feel that more organic and strange and... surreal!

I've been reading your stuff all day. Thank you for putting your art up for all to see and experience, it makes my eyes feel all fuzzy in a good way!

One of the initial ideas behind techno-mage was for the audience (you) to construct their own idea about the analognowhere universe from the seemingly disjointed snapshots from the mage's life. In a way, the process of your mind trying to make sense of it is surrealism.

Thank you for the kind words.

How did you take a picture of your camera?! A mirror?

[–] qrstuv@lemmy.sdf.org 7 points 10 months ago (1 children)

No, I used a mirrorless camera.

And how did you take a picture of them both? Did you borrow a camera?
