Digging the curved iconography! Wanderlust was surely directed by the rendering of minds on 4-acetoxy-N,N-dimethyltryptamine though.

Burnface · Postby **Burnface** » Wed Nov 07, 2012 8:49 pm

There are too many old emails that I haven't opened. But I always read the new ones.

Btw, anyone knows how to mark all of those as read?

OK, I'm obviously stupid and never thought of doing it so "manually". Please ignore me.

I'm sorry I don't have a better quality image. This looks pretty good to me, though.

I think I got it from some latin country fan page, but I'm not sure. Björk Chile, maybe.

Anyway, there you go, mod. Maybe you could make me a Medúlla-rank member in return...

I don't like having people on my desktop that much (I'd rather have some abstract shapes or a landscape as my wallpaper), but for some time I used to oscillate between these two wallpapers. It's my favourite Björk photoshoot, and these two images are incredibly sexy. [/stereotypical male]

And of course they fit even better when there's adequate music playing:

m.thr.n · Postby **m.thr.n** » Fri Dec 28, 2012 12:39 pm

Bump!

One of my favourite variety blogs (design/illustration/architecture/music) - thefoxisblack.com - has an ongoing "Desktop Wallpaper Project", where they ask various designers to contribute desktop backgrounds. They are often connected to music (for example, they did a series of wallpapers inspired by Animal Collective or Broken Social Scene).

They also have one inspired by Björk, designed by Mary Kate McDevitt:

As I was brushing up on my knowledge of icebergs, I was inspired by their lonesome lifestyle just drifting off to sea and decided icebergs live a bit like hermits. Which made me think of the Bjork song “Unison,” and the lyric “I thrive best hermit style.”

I think it's lovely, and I use it as my current wallpaper. To get more sizes, click here.

This one is spectacular!!

My desktop background alternates every few minutes. I feel like an absolute noob for not knowing how to capture it in a screenshot.

But some of the pics are:

among several others.

At my previous job, I had these on my work computer:

I loved it because all of the old fogeys I worked with had absolutely no idea who she was, and would freak out at some of them, especially the Bonnaroo and Volumen pics.

I feel like an absolute noob for not knowing how to capture it in a screenshot.

Hit the Prt Scr (print screen) button on your keyboard. It'll save it to your clipboard. Then paste it into paint, or something similar and then save it. Then you can upload it somewhere like photobucket (that's what I use) and then share it here. Easy.

Thank you.

I appreciate your help.

As I said earlier, my backgrounds change every few minutes. Here are some I captured tonight:

It was in a mood for the live shots apparently.
