Inspired by the idea of invisible lines, I thought of the almost invisible grooves on a vinyl LP. The imperfect analog pits being read by the perfect diamond on the stylus makes me think of how those who know me the best love me in spite of my imperfections.
That is effin awesome. I see that t and i need to wear it. Don’t listen to the dude above me, keep it where it is. Just a thought, but have you tried to do the lines closer together in one area, then further apart in another, then back again just like on a real vinyl where there is darker then lighter parts where the breakdowns are. It might look rubbish but just a suggestion. Nice one geez, A* for you.
Thanks. I understand what you’re saying about the grooves but I don’t think that subtlety is going to work for this shirt—probably end up looking random instead of more accurate. As it is, it is very stylized anyway so the crisp lines make sense.

I like the offset look. If it was on center, it’d look like a bullseye. Great shirt.

Very cool! Love the off-center design – it puts more emphasis on the tonearm and cartridge.
