Zak has multiple interests – he coaches gymnastics, makes music/visual art and just released his debut vinyl LP. He shares with us how he uses Trigraphy in his creative flow.
Hi, can you tell us a bit about yourself?
Hi! My name is Zak and I create music and art under the moniker “invention”. I live in Canada where I spend my time coaching competitive gymnastics and making music/visual art. Movement really helps to spark my creativity! The gym is like my second home, and some of my inspiration comes from my life there.
How are you using it?
I really like the ESTE filters. The textures you can create with them fit really well with the nature theme of my work. For example, and I can’t even remember exactly how this one started, but I was working on a piece using a photo that I manipulated with “Glitche”, and once I applied the ESTE filters from Trigraphy, I thought it resembled long golden grass. I then used the apps “Flood” (for the water reflection), “Union” (to blend the shore line), “Snapseed” (for the lens blur effect) and lastly “Mextures” (final touches) to create a grassy shore landscape out of it.
What was the reason to install Trigraphy?
I first stumbled across Trigraphy on the app store while searching for new tools to add to my process of creating digital art, and I fell in love instantly!
Tell us more about your work
I make instrumental beats under the moniker “invention_” and use the art I create as cover art for my SoundCloud uploads, and sometimes I make album covers for other artists!
I just released my debut vinyl LP through German hip hop platform Radio Juicy, titled “hibernature”! It’s 15 tracks of nature inspired instrumental lo-fi hip hop! Lots of piano, bass, and some odd little synths. Check it out: http://www.2lin.cc/invention
