cmyk 1964 1

CMYK is a term that you’ll hear designers and printers use, meaning Cyan, Magenta, Yellow and Key (black). Used for four color printing, it has been co-opted in this sense for a wildly vibrant series by artist Mike Winklemann, who goes by Beeple. This color-soaked set of images is a time warp back to 1964, when the flower child was alive and kicking.

Under closer inspection, the images almost have an x-ray-like effect, giving the series an even more tripped-out feeling. Ahh, to be alive in 1964…. we can almost imagine it. Great work, via the artist’s Behance page:
