Breakfast of Champions

by Darío Mekler

"I tend to think of human beings as rubbery test tubes with chemical reactions boiling inside."

"So it's a great temptation for me, when I create a character for a novel, to say that he is the way he is because his wires broke down, or because of microscopic amounts of chemicals he ingested or didn't ingest that day."

Kurt Vonnegut

Illustration for the Novel. Digital

Slaughterhouse V 

by Darío Mekler

“The most important thing I learnt on Tralfamadore was that when a person dies he only appears to die. He is still very much alive in the past, so it is very silly for people to cry at his funeral. All moments, past, present, and future, always have existed, always will exist. The Tralfamadorians can look at all the different moments just the way we can look at a stretch of the Rocky Mountains, for instance. They can see how permanent all the moments are, and they can look at any moment that interests them. It is an illusion we have here on Earth that one moment follows another one, like beads on a string, and that once a moment is gone it is gone forever. When any Tralfamadorian sees a corpse, all he thinks is that the dead person is in a bad condition in that particular moment, but that the same person is just fine in plenty of other moments.”

Illustration for the book by Kurt Vonnegut

Luxor

by Dario Mekler

In the heart of Egypt, Ozymandias looks over his kingdom, Karnak in his throat and the Temple of Luxor in his Stomach.

The Nile cuts the city in two. The western arm of dead queens and kings, of spirits and generations past.

In the East the living, the temples and the harvests, wars and politics.

Uaset for the ancient Egyptians, Thebes for the Greeks, Al Uqsur for the Arabs.

Constantinople 

by Darío Mekler

Queen of the cities. Capital of the eastern roman empire. All times and events occuring simultaneously. Hagia Sophia (the head) at the center being transformed into a mosque by the adding of minarets after its conquest. (I´ll be animating the movement in a coming up animated version) A chained golden horn and the Galata tower at its right arm (left of the image). The circus maximus and the port at its left arm (right of the image). The defense of the city at the center from a column of crusaders at the right and a column of ottoman troops at the left. Floating over the city Constantine, Justinian, Theodora, St Helen (Mother of Constantine). ... and some byzantine discussions spread throughout.
