Jul 16 2008
Take a trip to the dark side of the moon! Refraction is inspired by Pink Floyd shows an interpretation of natural effect of light as it passes through a prism with burst of colors in yellow, pink, red, blue and purple. An explosion of rainbow color prism all the way threw the t shirt.

blah. so this getting printed and im not surprised. slightly disappointed tho.
“it’s pretty much public domain so it’s cool.”
if you check out wikipedia for dark side of the moon and then click on the album cover, you will see that is is very much NOT public domain, but what do i know?
listen, i think you are a good graphic artist, and i think you are a good designer and everything, but this one in particular is just plainly and simply not original.
I am a big pink floyd fan, or their music and the artwork that is on their packaging, so that is the only reason i am commenting in the first place. enough said from me.
ah but dude pink floyd doesn’t own the rights to the refracting prism. they just borrowed that from science. use google images for “prism”. people just think pink floyd came up with the imagery but it’s really just a natural phenomenon. now if i took the exact same image from the album and put that on the shirt then that’s a different story.
dear god, they finally printed this. congrats!
Nice design. But the blue should come for purple/violet :D
CONGRATS!
congrats on the print!
fianlllyyyyyyy!!!! i liked on the back more but its great any way.
looks great
yeah people need to get over the whole pink floyd thing. The prism is a concept of it’s own, I mean IT’S SCIENCE COME ON! That shit is in your high school text book. This is a good shirt sir congrats
colors are perfectly balanced. Nice work!
I have to agree with tomburns, this one is plainly a Floydian slip.
actually, this suffered lot of influence of the asian industries that just know to fake things, including designs, cause they have no creativity
Heyheyhey… No need for insults here, maluse. this is a creation of its own, I never heard of copyright on rainbow colours and triangles and it is not that similar to that Pink Floyd cover at all… it only adapts its aesthetic and is therefore an hommage, basta:)
Really awesome that they decided to print this! It’ll surely be with my next order. But DBH, why the mock ups lately? Just wonderin’.
Congratz collisiontheory! Your a mad man with mad skillls to back!
The light in your design is refracting completely differently than that in the album cover by Hipgnosis. Actually, now that I think about it then (and this is not meant as a critique at all), isn’t the light refracting in the ‘wrong’ direction in your design? Did you use anything to reference how the light refracts, or did you just pick an angle?
i agree with tomburns, it’s alright, but this isnt your art, you added some gomedia splatters… congrats though i guess
collisiontheory, just because it isnt copyrighted doesn’t people don’t see what it is. we don’t take the scythe and hammer, make it red white and blue and call it democracy do we?
congraaaaaats .. so happy it got printed
