 This or That is . . . Now and Then [Alan G Brooks 2018] ---| implanting of machine forces into humans |--- Man will, in time, manage to implant the death-forces in man, related to electrical and magnetic forces, with external machines. He will then be able to direct his intentions, his thoughts into the machine.

 Music - Art - Illustration I have put up some more pieces on my website that are sci fi and music themed.  I am settling in to work again after settling in to the new house.

 For all those in Lockdown - caged - chained and despairing . . . . . Prayer 300 Way Out I did the picture above around 1999, 1998 even. It shows a man in a stone circle - in reverence - who at the same time has yet to understand that he is not only encircled by these stones but at the same time enslaved by them.  Just before he is to awaken to the fact that he is imprisoned by that which he is in awe of, his attention will be taken by the cross which is starting to appear before him. The cross is within a crystal encasement, but will be revealed fully to the man as soon as he gives his attention to it.  For the hard of hearing it is well worth remembering to harken unto the words of the book of Malachi [4:5] where it is explained in the last words of the Old Testament -  Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD: and [4:6] And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the ch...

Kings Heath and the Sixties.  Acrylic painting - Alan Brooks - "Sixties part one." - detail - 2010 I grew up in Kings Heath , Birmingham. Down the road from my house was York Road. In York Road was  a place called the Ritz Ballroom . Not long after The Beatles released their record "Please Please Me" in 1963 they were booked and played there. After that, heaven knows what happened, The Rolling Stones , The Kinks , Pink Floyd  Robert Plant and The Moody Blues all played there too! I heard that this piece of musical history burned down in 2013 - and was then demolished in 2015. I wasn't old enough to have seen any of those acts at the venue, but they had a lasting impact on me all the same. Alan G Brooks

 Pearl of the Cobra Pilot / Navigator #1 / Page art Flying Ship Operatives - storyboard / animation design Title Card Page art - a retro sci fi noir adventure -  More animation plotting / plus graphic novel double page Medieval / Medi evil Ship crash-land - page art Two Worlds / Fight scene / page art. Some bits and pieces from Pearl of the Cobra developed with Jay Brooks back in Illinois. These pieces / pages and designs were all done in a multitude of ways. Jay did computer modeling . We both did photography and I did the majority of digital drawing and hand painting. We handed pieces back and forth to one another, cleaning up as we went along. Details of the Pearl of the Cobra and it's legend, mystery and supernatural abilities are documented here . It is up to you to decide if such a thing does indeed exist or not. Alan Brooks
