Geometric Comparison of Shock Waves from a Nuclear Sky Burst Detonation vs. Ground Detonation: Clockwork Atomics x167

What can I say? This is what I think about during a morning espresso in the city. I blame the morning commute with the idiots on their cellphones. Seriously, who needs to talk that loud?

Kafka-Tesla Suicide Machine: Prototype and Production Type: Clockwork Atomics x428 & x429

This is one of the rare cases where I did a smaller drawing and then immediately produced a larger version of that idea (mainly I was playing with conical gearing). But x428 is fun in its brevity and I was careless and left coffee stains on it (the ink is very water soluble). The next one was done during lunch breaks over a couple of days while we were sorting through an art collectors home (which was inspiring as always). As for their names, I am often bothered or interrupted while drawing. (Apparently headphones on and intently drawing in a corner is an invitation for interruption). When I was stopped by someone's curiosity this time by them wanting to know what I was drawing, I told them the first thing that popped into my head that I thought would make them go away. It was a drawing of a Kafka-Tesla Suicide Machine. They quickly left and the name stuck.

Structural Matrix of a Nuclear Bullet: Clockwork Atomics x071

An early drawing, back when they took very little time. This was before the drawings became machines. All the drawings were based on something a read or heard about. Many were inspired by pulp novels from the early 20th century and the design of alchemy etchings.
