Interview with Howard Chaykin: Jazzy narratives and stylish colour-blindness
Howard Chaykin is my first interviewed comic book artist from this year’s edition of Funny Comic Show Festival, held in November in Zagreb. I grabbed some of his time after two days seminar on comic book labour, he led at the beginning of the festival.
Chaykin is considered among experts as one of the most innovative storytellers, influenced by jazz and politics, but always on the edgy side of controversy during the history of comic books.

Interview with Zdenko Basic, part 1: Scopes of lucidity in illustration and animation
For a very long time I’m planning to detain for an interview Zdenko Basic… practically from the beginning of my blogging… Somehow other topics and other people entered into life of this digital creature called Body Pixel…
During this year’s edition of Animafest – World Festival of Animated Film, Zdenko was detained in the quarters of the festival and examined about his crime: illustration and animation. This verdict is announced: life sentence to be served in the deepest part of the fairy land with a working obligation of doing only moving pictures and illustrations. The execution sentence starts now!

Karakuri Block
Karakuri Block by Natsu Kawakita and Nobuya Suzuki is a project from 2004, but I have decided to include them into my reviewing of the exhibition Device_art 3.009 because it’s based on storytelling concept.
