A tribute to Tomohiro Nishikado masterpiece.
This idea got stuck in my head ever since i started revisiting some Flash space Shooters and remakes of Space Invaders.Finally today i found the time to work on it and this is what i have.I do quite like it but thats just my opinion 
Holidays start on Wednesday and i might be going for a vacation to Langkawi on Friday.Hopefully that works out so atleast i can get some good R and R.

Well its Sunday night and its back to work for me tomorrow.Was a pretty fast paced and eventful weekend for me which started off with a bbq and booze party at a friends place.It was basically to celebrate my friends arm cast removal which he had to put on a month back when he was chased by a dog,fell down and fractured his arm after drinking with us.Yeah we all sound like alcoholics but its the weekend:)Also i had to help a few other friends with something and i witnessed something that not many people would witness in their entire life.I cant exactly say what it was but it sure does make you change your perspectives of life when you see it with your own eyes right in front of you.
Got a simple freelance project done for Unique Zone where i created the front page splash animation.I’m starting to enjoy doing freelance projects again and i may just start looking for more of these contracts.
Designed something on Saturday morning as i had to wake up early to help my mom with some stuff.This new piece is called iThink…
The idea came about when i was deciding and thinking what to do for my next artwork which ill start on tomorrow.I’m surprised how a weekly alcohol intake gets my creative juices flowing and im glad ive got alot of free time to work on my art.
Arsenal beat Blackburn 4-0 on Saturday as Adebayor scored a Hat-Trick and Robin Van Persie scored the first.Well done Gunners:)Looking forward to more football this weekend as the Champions League kicks off with Arsenal playing Dynamo Kyiv.
So anyways i’m off to bed now,i’ve got a 8.30 class in the morning and ive gotta be up early.Gnite everyone…

Was listening to a lot of MJ music on the weekend and i realized how much i used to like the song Thriller.Back then it had some cutting edge sound effects and an amazing video.The part that used to always rock was one of the verses where a guy spoke in a deep voice,almost chanting and this is what he said…
Darkness Falls Across The Land
The Midnite Hour Is Close At Hand
Creatures Crawl In Search Of Blood
To Terrorize Y’awl’s Neighbourhood
And Whosoever Shall Be Found
Without The Soul For Getting Down
Must Stand And Face The Hounds Of Hell
And Rot Inside A Corpse’s Shell
The Foulest Stench Is In The Air
The Funk Of Forty Thousand Years
And Grizzy Ghouls From Every Tomb
Are Closing In To Seal Your Doom
And Though You Fight To Stay Alive
Your Body Starts To Shiver
For No Mere Mortal Can Resist
The Evil Of The Thriller
My latest design was inspired by the music of Thriller and MJ.Do take a look and tell me what you think:)

My cousin from Delhi recently came down so i was pretty much hanging out with him and his wife.The weekend was pretty hectic especially when Arsenal lost against Fulham which was a very irritating and confusing game.Cant really talk about the game much cause i didnt really watch much of it since i was at a bar getting drunk that night.
Just finished and uploaded my latest artwork which i got inspired after having some awesome greens with some friends and family during the weekend.What a high mann…good stuff XD
Work’s been treating me allright and im looking forward to an extended weekend cause of the Malaysian Independence day celebrations which falls on the 31st of August,Sunday so everyone gets Monday off as well…Wohooo getting drunk again this weekend:)
This morning Arsenal played FC Twente in the Champions League qualifiers where they crushed the Dutch side 4-0 with goals from Nasri,Gallas,Walcott and Bendtner.

Completed this sometime last week using Adobe Flash.Inspired by Stephen King’s The Mist and funkyfied using some curves,curls and psychedelic colors.I seem to be looking for inspirations from the weirdest places nowadays.

Smashing Magazine recently published its August wallpaper series which is basically a collection of cool graphical wallpapers that have an August feel to it.Many of these wallpapers have a calenders on it and are awesome to use instead of the conventional windows wallpapers.A particular one that caught my attention was this one:
This set is actually from the August competition and if anyone is interested to take part in the next competition go here and good luck:)Im still at work just waiting for the clock to strike 6 to get home.

After careful consideration and reading some interesting information regarding Word Press I’ve finally decided to migrate to the world of Word Press.My old blog will probably just float around and die in cyberspace as i start a transition to Word Press.
I’m hoping to get to know a few other Word Press users to gain their insight on how exactly this system works.So if you have some information to share do pass it along.I quite like the whole design and layout of the Word Press interface but I’m still getting familiarized with the theme styles because I’m keen on making one of my own for this blog.
Well for those of you that havent been following me on TheTribalTech let me introduce myself.My name is Harsha Rao and i live in Malaysia.Im pretty much a washed up graphic designer who’s trying to get back his inspiration and find out the meanings of life.Im also an Arsenal(A Football/Soccer team in London) fan and i work as a Graphic Design lecturer at a university here in Malaysia.
