I did this montage/collage(?) a very very long time ago, rediscovered it a while back and electronicly rebuggered it. I was a disturbed child, obviously. A proto-Goth. The bodies belonged to the Kray brothers, I seem to remember.

Actually I think it's a montage, but I'm not really sure what the difference is. Isn't a collage usually mixed media?
This is really marvellous. I love it. Something of Man Ray about it. Keep it coming.
God, wow just looked at it again. I'm going to download this at work and put it on my desktop. Thankyoux
Anyway, does anyone kno what the difference between montage & collage is? Or frottage? Isn't that putting yr nipples in a cheese-grater?
Montage - a cinematic device used to show a series of scenes, usually juxtaposing or superimposing many pictures or designs.
Collage - from the Francais word, 'coller' meaning to glue. Work made by gluing materials/scraps onto paper.
Frottage - now, don't get me started on that. But no cheese graters. That's just for Mickey Mouse.
Frottage: 'rubbing' over textural surfaces with pencils, charcoal, whatever...like brass-rubbing...Ernst used it a lot to get random/'automatic' textures in his paintings....
Thanks guys. I am now a wiser person.
Frottage is what you do when you'e bored on the subway and spot a nice looking girl...
no loplops there then...
Ooooo, loplop: spot the Ernst reference there...
