Thaum tham nrog Eric Anderson, tus sau Texas-yug, illustrator, thiab ib nrab hnub ua yeeb yam hauv nws tus tij laug cov yeeb yaj kiab, thawj qhov uas kuv tau ua yog qhia tias nws yog tus kheej, thaum ub. Ib tug laus-timer. Kuv tsuas yog hais tias kuv tau paub txog nws ib pliag xwb.
"Yog," nws sighs. "Nws tau ntev lawm tam sim no."
Kuv scrambled piav tias kuv tsuas txhais tau tias kuv yuav qhuas nws txoj hauj lwm rau qee lub sij hawm. Tab sis qhov kev puas tsuaj tau ua tiav.
Peb tau sib tham vim muaj kev lag luam tshiab ntawm FreeConference: Qhov project Puffin. Tau mus cuag nws rau lub luag haujlwm ua ib qho ntawm peb cov kws ua yeeb yam tshwj xeeb, peb xav pom dab tsi nws tuaj yeem tshwm sim rau peb tus hlub mascot. Nov yog qhov peb tau rov qab.
Anderson's Puffin, 2018
Kuv tos tsis tau nug txog nws. Tab sis ua ntej, peb tham txog huab cua. Tom qab mloog nws yws txog qhov tsis muaj caij nyoog New York txias, kuv qhia nws tias peb hnav t-shirts saum xoom-degrees Celsius.
E: Zoo, pom tau tias koj cov ntshav tau thicker thiab heartier dua sab qaum teb koj nyob. Koj puas nyob hauv Toronto?
G: Yog, kuv yog.
E: Classic nroog. Kuv yeej tsis tau nyob ntawd, tab sis kuv xav tau.
G: Qhov ntawd ua rau kuv mus rau hauv ib qho ntawm kuv cov lus nug. Koj puas muaj qhov chaw nyiam nyob hauv lub ntiaj teb? Tej zaum ib tug koj xav ua ib daim ntawv qhia?
E: Qee tus neeg tau nug kuv qhov no, thiab kuv tuaj yeem qhia nws tau sim kuv lub npe rau ib yam dab tsi nthuav heev. Nws yog ib qho kev sib tw uas pom tseeb thiab txawv txawv, thiab kuv lub siab xav tau hais ib yam dab tsi uas tsis pom tseeb.
Tab sis kuv teb nws ncaj ncees. Kuv hais tias kuv xav mus ncig ua si ntawm Great Canadian Railway Hotels. Nws ua qhov no frown, tab sis nws yog qhov tseeb! Koj Canadians muaj cov tsev so classic railway ncaj qha thoob plaws lub tebchaws. Kuv tsis paub tseeb tias lawv ua haujlwm rau txoj kev tsheb ciav hlau ntxiv lawm. Tab sis lawv yog txhua yam castles. Tej zaum lawv tsis yog tsev so lawm. Tab sis lawv yeej saib zoo rau kuv.
G: Qhov ntawd suab zoo li tus ntoo khaub lig ntawm Darjeeling Limited thiab Grand Budapest Hotel. Koj tau txais qee qhov kev xa rov qab tshwm sim ntawm no.
E: Yog, kuv pom zoo, tab sis koj paub, kuv xav ntau dua li ... Koj puas tau pom "49th Parralel," WW2 movie?
G: Kuv tsis muaj. Kuv tsis yog classics cinephile. Kuv muaj qee qhov kev ntes mus ua. Koj puas xav kom nws?
E: Kuv xav kom nws: nws yog tsim los ntawm ob ntawm cov neeg sab saum toj nyob rau hauv tag nrho artform nyob rau hauv kuv lub tswv yim. Nws yog hais txog Nazis hauv Canada, txoj cai ua ntej Asmeskas tau nkag mus ua tsov rog. Nws yog raws li zaj dab neeg tseeb. Kuv xav rov qab los - nco koj qhov no yog xyoo 1939 - lub tswv yim ntawm kev tua ntawm qhov chaw yog qhov txawv heev thiab siv zog loj; thiab tus thawj coj Askiv no, Michael Powell, thiab nws tus khub sau ntawv Hungarian, tej zaum yuav sau ua nws hom lus thib peb, Emeric Pressburger, lawv tau tua thoob plaws tebchaws Canada. Thiab nws yog ... Kuv paub tias kuv cov duab ntawm Canada yog 70 xyoo dhau los, tab sis kuv paub tias lawv mus rau ob peb lub tsev so. Tsawg kawg ib ntawm lawv.
Koj yuav tsum tau tawm ntawm txoj kev loj. Kuv siv los xav hais tias lub US twb populated nrog no tuab uniformity, cia li tsi ncaj thoob plaws, thiab nws yog ib qhov opposite. Tab sis koj yuav tsum tau tawm ntawm Interstate kom pom nws.
G: Yog li kuv twv thaum koj hais tias koj xav mus ncig ua si ntawm Great Canadian Railway Chaw ntiav pw, nws tsuas yog ua rau kev txiav txim siab thov ua koj phau ntawv ncig xyuas los ntawm tsheb ciav hlau?
E: Aw, yes. Ua phau ntawv ncig xyuas los ntawm tsheb ciav hlau yog vim kuv nyiam ua qhov ntawd. Nws yog ib qho ntawm cov uas koj pom yog tias lawv yuav hais tias yog, thiab yog tias lawv ua - jackpot. Thiab kuv tau nyeem tiag Tsis Muaj Teb Chaws Rau Cov Qub Neeg, tsis yog ntawv sau tab sis raws li email txuas. Tus sau thiab kuv tau koom tib tus neeg sawv cev rau lub sijhawm, kev ua haujlwm sib txawv ntawm qhov tseeb, thiab ib feem ntawm kev xyiv fab tau zaum ntawm lub tsheb ciav hlau trundling thoob plaws Asmeskas kev nyeem ntawv Tsis Muaj Tebchaws ntawm lub laptop.
Kuv yeej tsis tuaj yeem paub thaum phau ntawv tau teeb tsa. Yog li nws xav tias tsis muaj sijhawm. Muaj ob peb lub xov tooj ntawm tes hais nyob rau hauv daim ntawv sau, tab sis tus txiv neej nyob rau hauv nws yog ib tug tub rog Nyab Laj uas tshwm sim muaj txog 30, yog li nws nyuaj me ntsis kom tau kuv cov kabmob. Thaum kawg, cov extravagances, los yog idiosyncracies ... anachronisms! Yog lo lus. Lawv raug tshem tawm. Dab tsi yog qhov zoo kawg nkaus tshiab.
G: Heev obviously koj nyiam toj roob hauv pes thiab noj nyob rau hauv scenery. Koj txoj kev hlub ntawm daim duab qhia chaw nyob qhov twg?
E: Kuv xav tias kuv tsis meej pem txog qhov ntawd, lossis tsawg kawg nws tau muab zais ntawm kuv vim kuv tsis tau kuaj xyuas nrog lub cim xeeb ntev. Nws tsuas yog tom qab kuv pib ua lawv, kuv txiv tau ceeb toom kuv tias nws thawj txoj haujlwm yog ua haujlwm rau Sinclair Oil hauv Texas, ua daim duab qhia chaw ntawm cov roj av ... Kuv yuav tsum tau pom qee qhov. Tam sim no kuv muaj nws cov cuab yeej sau ntawv thiab qee cov phau ntawv qhia nws yuav siv. Rau nws, ua daim ntawv qhia kev lag luam, nws cov ntawv sau yuav tsum tsis muaj tseeb - kuv cov ntawv sau tau zoo tab sis tsis immaculate zoo li nws. Yog li tej zaum, faus rau hauv qhov tob, yog qhov tseeb tias kuv txiv tau siv los ua daim ntawv qhia.
Lwm qhov yog tias ntawm ib qho chaw hauv kuv lub 20s, kuv tsuas dawm hla ib daim ntawv qhia, ib daim ntawv qhia zoo, uas muaj qhov tseem ceeb tam sim rau kuv. Nws yog qhov zoo heev, ib nrab vim nws tau nthuav dav heev uas nws piav qhia txog tus kheej cov ntoo, thiab seb txoj kev taug kev yog cib lossis cement. Nws kuj yog ib daim ntawv qhia ntawm ib cheeb tsam keeb kwm uas kuv tau sim sau ib zaj dab neeg txog thaum lub sijhawm. Thiab qhov ntawd yog lub sijhawm Eureka. Nws zoo li sawv hauv ib lub tsev cia puav pheej.
Nws kuj ua rau kuv nco txog tias muaj pes tsawg phau ntawv uas kuv tau loj hlob rau cov ntawv qhia tshwj xeeb. Feem ntau hais lus, cov menyuam yaus muaj sijhawm ntau ntawm lawv txhais tes - lawv tsis muaj haujlwm, koj paub - thiab tej zaum nws tsuas yog kuv xwb, tab sis kuv nyiam daim duab qhia hauv dab neeg. Lawv tau tantalizing - qee zaum kuv yuav saib cov duab qhia ntau npaum li kuv saib zaj dab neeg. Thiab ntawm chav kawm, cov menyuam yaus rov nyeem phau ntawv ib lab lub sijhawm ... Lub sijhawm Eureka tej zaum yuav ua rau muaj kev xav tsis thoob. Tam sim ntawd tom qab ntawd, kuv tau mus thiab tau txais qee yam khoom siv kos duab yooj yim heev thiab pib ua daim ntawv qhia.
Kuv tsis xav hais tias kuv muaj qhov txawv tshaj plaw spatial nco, vim leej twg lub ntuj raug txim paub txog qhov ntawd. Qhov ntawd tsuas yog - koj paub, nws suab zoo. Tab sis qhov no yog ib cheeb tsam uas kuv mus kawm ntawv qib siab. Txaus tau tshwm sim nyob rau ntawd uas kuv tuaj yeem ua daim duab qhia chaw zoo los ntawm kev nco. Ces kuv pib ceg tawm me ntsis. Vim li cas ho tsis daim duab qhia lub tsev uas peb loj hlob? Vim li cas ho tsis kuv niam tais lub minivan? Yog li kuv tau pib ua lawv li Christmas khoom plig thiab nthuav tawm lub ntsiab lus ntawm "daim ntawv qhia" kom suav nrog txhua yam tseem ceeb uas tau sau thiab cov ntawv sau thiab cov xub.
Cov neeg rov qab los uas kuv tau hais txog nws yuav xav tias daim duab qhia no tuaj yeem dhau los ua lub tswv yim ntshiab, thiab kuv yuav tau txais kev txaus siab txaus ntshai, vim kuv tsis zoo ntawm kev xav dawb huv, thiab kuv paub - piv txwv li, tus kws kos duab kos duab. rau cov Tshiab YorkerPuas yog Roz Chast? Nws tuaj yeem muab ib daim duab qhia rau koj txog ntau txoj hauv kev yws txog tus mob khaub thuas, los ntawm qhov tsis txaus ntseeg mus rau qhov tsis txaus ntseeg, thiab qhov ntawd tsis yog daim ntawv qhia kuv tuaj yeem tuaj nrog. Nws zoo kawg li ntawm qhov ntawd. Tab sis yog hais tias muaj ib tsev neeg nrog ib tug laus Fiat, thiab txhua tus neeg hauv tsev neeg muaj kev paub tshwj xeeb, lawv qhov kev paub kos npe nrog lub tsheb ntawd, qhov ntawd yuav yog ib yam uas kuv tuaj yeem ua, raws li kev nco txog hom.
Kuv tus tij laug tau siv ib hom khaub ncaws rau kev coj ua yeeb yaj kiab: nws tau siv lub bullhorn uas yog khoom plig, lub khob kas fes mus ncig, thiab lub pob liab liab. Thiab daim ntawv qhia yuav cia li sib sau cov ntsiab lus ... Tab sis ib daim ntawv qhia yuav ua tau dab tsi. Qhov ntawd yog li cas txhua qhov pib. Kuv pib nrog daim duab qhia chaw thiab tom qab ntawd kawm kos duab. Qhov ntawd yog ib ntus.
G: Qhov ntawd coj kuv mus rau kuv cov lus nug tom ntej. Koj tau qhia tus kheej, txoj cai - koj kawm kos li cas? Puas yog qhov uas koj nyuam qhuav khaws los ntawm kev qhuas cov duab kos thiab nitpicking ntawm koj tus kheej ua haujlwm? Koj tus txheej txheem pib li cas? Koj puas tau rub koj tus cwj mem nyiam thiab tau mus rau nws?
E: Kuv xav tias cov lus teb rau cov lus nug no yog "Yog." Zoo li ib tug neeg ruam, kuv yuav ua hauj lwm nyob rau hauv watercolor vim hais tias yog tag nrho cov khw yuav muaj ... Qhov no ib txwm suab zoo li bullshit thaum kuv qhia nws, tab sis kuv yuav kuv thawj zoo kos duab cuab yeej nyob rau hauv ib tug bar. Kuv nyob ntawm ib qho kev ua kis las hauv nroog Washinton, DC Thiab tus txiv neej no tuaj nqa cov cuab yeej siv German no: cov cwj mem, Fabkis txoj nkhaus, daim duab peb sab, tus pas ntsuas, lub compass, tag nrho cov tsev kawm ntawv tshiab xyoo 1989 nyob rau hauv ib lub hnab Ziploc muaj. Nws tab tom saib ib ncig, pom kuv thiab kuv tus phooj ywg, thiab zoo li "Txoj Cai: Cov neeg kawm ntawv qib siab" thiab ua rau beeline. Kuv xav tias kuv muab nws tsib duas las. Kuv tsis paub dab tsi cov khoom ntawd muaj nqis, tab sis kuv tau siv nws - qee qhov kuv siv rau niaj hnub no.
G: Kuv twv tias yog tsib qhov zoo tshaj plaws uas koj tau siv.
E: Yog. Tej zaum nws yuav cuam tshuam kuv hauv kev ua txhaum cai. Kuv tau them nyiaj rau lawv, txawm li cas los xij.
Tej yam zoo li tsuas yog tshwm sim xwb. Kuv tau pleev xim nrog cov xim dej kom txog thaum ib tug txiv neej txawj xav heev hu ua Rob Reynolds hais rau kuv, "Eric, koj puas xav sim gouache?" Thiab ntawm chav kawm, kuv teb yog: "Dab tsi yog gouache?"
G: Kuv yuav nug, puas muaj tej daim uas koj tau luam tawm koj xav kom koj rov kos dua?
E: Yog thiab tsis yog, vim hais tias yog kuv redid lub ntim rau, hais, Rushmore DVD, ces nws yuav tsis yog tib yam khoom. Nws yuav yog lwm yam. Tej zaum peb yuav tsum cia nws ua ib feem tseem ceeb ntawm lub sij hawm capsule ... Qhov zoo los ntawm kuv.
Nws yog hom kab nkhaus tab sis: Saib Zissou illustrations for Life Aquatic . Kuv nyiam lawv, tab sis lawv yog los ntawm ntev dhau los. Tej zaum kuv plateaued. Tej zaum qhov ntawd yog qhov ua siab tshaj ntawm kuv lub peev xwm.
Los yog Darjeeling Limited DVD npog. Qhov ntawd yog ib qho ntawm kuv nyiam kos duab thiab yog qhov kev sim tiag tiag. Kuv tsis kos loj loj, thiab qhov ntawd muaj ntau heev - muaj qee yam khoom ntawm kev xav uas ib txwm tsis yooj yim, vim nws feem ntau zoo li fake, tab sis muaj ntau ntau textures crammed rau hauv ib qho chaw me me. Kuv xav tias kuv muaj cov amateur ntshai ntawm kev ntxiv xim, yog li kuv ib txwm dej nws cia ntau tshaj li cov neeg paub zoo feem ntau ua ... cia li pleev xim rau ... nyias nyias, tsis txaus siab ... thiab koj tau txais txog peb caug ntawm cov nyias nyias. , reluctant khaubncaws sab nraud povtseg ua ntej mam li nco dheev muaj ib tug tiag tiag square ntawm cov xim. Qhov ntawd yog tej zaum kuv yuav tsum tau ua haujlwm. Kuv tsis nco qab tam sim no yog tias kuv teb koj cov lus nug. Kuv puas tau teb koj cov lus nug? Qhov ntawd yog ib lo lus teb ntev.
G: Kuv pom nws funny heev uas koj pib nrog watercolor, vim hais tias nws yog ib tug heev unforgiving nruab nrab. Cov neeg feem coob kawm ua haujlwm lawv txoj hauv kev siv qhov chaw tsis zoo, yog li kuv xav tias gouache yuav yog txoj hauv kev zoo nkauj thiab zam txim ntau dua mus, vim nws muaj qhov pom ntau dua. Zoo siab kawg uas koj tau tso dej los zoo li cov xim dej lawm...Kuv twv koj paub tias koj nyiam dab tsi.
E: Koj nyob qhov twg xyoo 1999! "Eric, tsis txhob ua haujlwm hauv cov xim dej, nws tsis suav nrog dawb, koj idiot!”
G: Yog lawm, nws muaj qhov tsis tuaj.
E: Thiab koj paub dab tsi? Nws nyuaj. Kuv tsis paub yuav ua li cas artfully siv, los yog muaj lub siab zoo los ua ib yam dab tsi zoo nkauj yooj yim, ua nws txawj ntse ... Qee tus neeg paub yuav ua li cas nteg ib daim npog qhov ncauj, nplawm ntawm cov xim ntxuav, siv ib tug eraser nqa lub npog ntsej muag tom qab ... hom khawv koob no ... Tej zaum nws tsis yog hom duab kuv ua. Qhov ntawd yog kev siab hlub.
Kuv kuj tau siv tshwj xeeb siv cov blocks dej ... uas yog kev vwm. Cov nplooj ntawv buckle vim txoj kev lawv txuas nrog lub rooj tsavxwm.
Yog li: gouache thiab ob-thick illustration board, uas yog tsis yooj yim sua rau npuas, vim hais tias txhua txhua particle yog daig rau nws rov qab. Qhov ntawd yog cov khoom zoo li ntawd. Bainbridge Board, Cold-Pressed Number 80 ... Thaum kos duab tiav, kuv yuav muab ib rab riam thiab nick rau ntawm ntug kom tev nws tawm ntawm lub nraub qaum. Daim ntawv hloov tau xav tau rau lub nruas scanners. Kuv yuav tsum xam qhov ntawd tawm.
G: Ok, yog li kuv tau ua qee qhov kev pabcuam los nrhiav seb lwm tus neeg nyiam koj xav paub dab tsi.
E: [Suab tsis ntseeg]
G: Cia li dai nrog kuv. Lawv xav paub seb koj qhov chaw nyob zoo li cas. Nws hais tias koj nyob hauv ib chav tsev me me hauv West Village. Tab sis muab qee yam rau kuv ua haujlwm nrog. Raws li ib tug neeg spatial rhiab heev, yuav tsum muaj ib yam dab tsi. Koj puas xim-coj koj lub mugs? Koj puas muaj ntau lub shawls?
E: Cov neeg raug liam no yuav tsum tso cai rau qhov muaj peev xwm uas muaj kev ntxhov siab ntau dua li lawv yuav txaus siab rau. Ntau phau ntawv, lub rooj ua haujlwm tsis khoom heev ... Ntawm no yog ib yam: ib yam uas kuv pom tau tias kuv xav tau yog ib qho classic liab-thiab-dawb checked picnic-table tablecloth. Kuv xav tias nws yuav yog tus neeg sawv cev tiv thaiv kev ntxhov siab. Yog li kuv muaj ib qho ntawm kuv lub rooj kos duab.
Muaj ntau yam khoom me me feem ntau. Kuv xav tias kuv tuaj yeem hais tias lawv yog khoom plig tag nrho ... Tab sis qee qhov yog. Muaj ob lub thauj tog rau nkoj cufflinks nyob rau hauv me ntsis liab lub thawv, thiab ib tug classic scout riam; ib tug me me av nplaum bumblebee los ntawm kuv tus ntxhais; tus vajtswv poj niam Minerva, uas nws tus phooj ywg yog tus plas, txoj cai? Yog li ntawd, ib yam ntawm cov pob zeb nyuaj heev owl.
Cov chav tsev ... nws me me heev. Kuv pleev xim rau kuv tus kheej. Chav nyob yog xim soothing ntawm Hershey's chocolate bar. Txoj kev nkag yog hom -- Kuv tsis tuaj yeem tawm ntawm lub npe ntawm cov xim, wNws yog "Frankincense" - ib tug soothing, lub ntiaj teb-tone liab. Thaum kuv xub pom chav dej ntawm no, kuv pheej xav txog "Taxi Tsav Tsheb." Ib chav dej uas koj xav tias yuav nrhiav tau tus txiv neej tuag. Tsuas yog paj pwm thiab lub teeb liab qab.
Qhov ntawd yog thawj kauj ruam, txhim kho tsev-ntseeg. Tsis muaj ib qho kab rov tav. Nws zoo li ib tug neeg tau teeb tsa lub koob yees duab saib kuv sim sib npaug ntawm cov khoom nkhaus. Yog li kuv xav tias "Nyob rau hauv ntuj txiag teb tsaus nrog qhov no" thiab ua ib lub thawv ntawv thiab tom qab ntawd lwm lub txee, uas tam sim no muaj lub teeb. Kuv nyiam ua qhov ntawd, tsim khoom, thiab txheeb xyuas qhov chaw, vim kuv ua haujlwm feem ntau hauv tsev, thiab koj yuav tsum siv zog. Qee lub sij hawm nws tseem ceeb, tsuas yog sawv hauv qhov rooj thiab xav tias "OK, muaj dab tsi tshwm sim ntawm no? Qhov ntawd yuav zoo li cas? Yuav tsum muaj dabtsi tshwm sim tom ntej?”
Kuv twb ua ib co duab thiab tej yam ... tej zaum kuv yuav tau txais ib co chaw cia rau kuv artwork yav dhau los. Yuav tsum muaj kev lag luam rau cov neeg nrhiav khaws cov khoom uas tsis yog cov hniav nyiaj hniav kub, cov khoom uas yuav tsum tau muab khaws cia rau qhov chaw sov thiab qhuav. Kuv yuav cia li muab lawv tso rau hauv ib lub thawv.
G: Ib lub thawv zoo, kuv vam. Lawv tsim nyog nws. Ntawm lub ncauj lus ntawm phau ntawv, koj puas tau nyeem dab tsi nthuav?
E: Kuv nyeem ib zaj dab neeg hu ua Camilla, lub npe hu ua Camilla Dickinson los ntawm Madeleine L'Engle. Feem ntau ntawm nws cov phau ntawv yog qhov zoo heev, tab sis qhov no tsuas yog hauv paus hauv kev xav thiab tib neeg thiab lub neej. Nws yog thawj zaug uas kuv tuaj yeem nco ntsoov nyeem qhov twg ib tus neeg cuam tshuam nrog lub suab nrov los ntawm Third Avenue Elevated Train, uas tau tso tseg nyob rau xyoo 1953. Yog li ntawd zoo nkauj heev.
Muaj ib tus kws sau ntawv tshiab uas kuv nyiam, Richard Price, uas muaj lub tswv yim tias nws yuav ua rau kev ua txhaum tshiab. Qhov no yog qhov nws ib txwm ua, tab sis lawv yog cov masterpieces - lawv siv 8 xyoo pop - yog li (Kuv xav tias qhov no yog qhov tseeb) nws tau xav tias, raws li tus cwj mem, tus neeg hloov pauv no, nws tsuas yog crank ib qho. tawm hauv tsis muaj sij hawm ... Thiab tau kawg nws coj nws 8 xyoo. Nws yuav tsum luam tawm nyob rau hauv lub npe cwj mem, tab sis phau ntawv raws li nws thaum kawg tshwm sim suab raws nraim li Richard Nqe tshiab, yog li lub npog tiag tiag hais. Cov Dawb "los ntawm Richard Price sau li Harry Brandt." Txawm li cas los xij, Brandt lossis Nqe, nws zoo heev.
G: Puas muaj tej phau ntawv me nyuam yaus uas tuaj rau hauv lub siab, txawm tias muaj kev cuam tshuam rau koj txoj kev taug kev los yog ua tus piav qhia?
E: Yog. Thawj tsab ntawm James thiab Giant Txiv Duaj. Kuv tabtom sim nco ntsoov lub npe ntawm tus poj niam uas piav qhia lawv, Kuv tau siv lub npe ntawd rau ntawm kuv tus nplaig. Nancy Ekholm Burkert. Nws zoo heev. Thiab pom tau tias ntau nto moo rau nws version ntawm daus dawb. thiab Charlie thiab Chocolate Factory. Joseph Schindelman. Cov ntawd kuj zoo kawg thiab.
Kuv xav tias muaj ib zaug kuv cov kwv tij xav qhia rau lawv cov phooj ywg paub qhov tseeb uas lawv cov kwv tij nyeem tau. Kuv tsis xav tias kuv pib nyeem ntawv tshwj xeeb thaum ntxov - Kuv xav tias lawv tsuas yog dhuav. Zoo li, "Eric nyeem tau, kos qhov no tawm!" Yog li lawv yuav lo lub Hobbit nyob rau hauv pem hauv ntej ntawm kuv, thiab kuv yuav nyeem nrov nrov thawj ob nplooj ntawv ntawm lub Hobbit. Ces kuv cia li nyeem ntawv xwb. lub Hobbit yog ib qho ntawm kuv nyiam thiab yeej muaj lwm yam kev cuam tshuam thaum ntxov.
Kuv mob heev nyob rau qib 1, thiab kev nyeem ntawv yog txhua yam kuv tau ua. Kuv xav tias txhua tus neeg nyeem kom txaus siab yuav tsum ua qhov no ntawm qee lub sijhawm. Koj yuav tsum, ntawm qee kis, tsuas yog dhia hauv thiab ua rau koj tus kheej kev sib raug zoo nrog kev ntseeg thiab cov lus ntawm daim ntawv.
G: Puas muaj ib yam dab tsi uas koj tau hais tias koj xav qhia koj tus kheej?
E: Kuv paub tias koj yuav nug kuv qhov ntawd, thiab kuv tau khiav los ntawm kuv lub taub hau sim los teb cov lus teb. Kuv hlub Quentin Blake, tab sis kuv tsis nyiam lub tswv yim ntawm kev hloov cov thawj illustrators nrog tshiab illustrators ... Kuv xav tias kuv nyiam lawv li lawv.
Muaj ib Phau Ntawv James Bond txog riam phom. Tej zaum kuv tuaj yeem ua qhov ntawd me ntsis hauv tsev, sov me ntsis. Kuv nyiam qhov khoom.
Tsis yog tias kuv tuaj yeem ua tiav ntawm nws, tab sis kuv tuaj yeem pom kuv tus kheej remaking ib Dungeons thiab Dragons phau ntawv qhia. Muaj schematic xav rau cov khoom ntawd, thiab tej zaum ntau marginalia yuav nthuav. Kuv yeej tsis ua si Dungeons thiab Dragons ntawm qib ntawd ... Tab sis nws - qhov kev ua si, kuv txhais tau tias - ib txwm xeeb nyob ib puag ncig maps. Ib hom "Ah ... zaj dab neeg lub sijhawm ..." kev xav, yog tias ua rau kev nkag siab.
G: Yog li no lub tswv yim ntawm kev kos duab, puas yog los ntawm kev xav ntawm txhua zaj dab neeg tshwm sim hauv ntiaj teb koj nkag siab?
E: Tej zaum nws yog hais txog qhov kev xav ntawm kev tawm hauv lub npe mus ib ntus, thiab mus rau qhov chaw uas muaj peev xwm nthuav ntau dua. Tsis tas li ntawd lub tswv yim ntawm disoriented, thiab taug txuj kev nyuaj uas disorientation qhia.
Maps rau cov Tus tswv ntawm lub Rings tau ua los ntawm Tolkien tus tub, thiab kuv nyiam lub tswv yim ntawd. Ib yam uas daig nrog kuv yog yuav ua li cas, ntawm kev taug txuj kev nyuaj, koj tsuas yog mus txog 20% ntawm daim ntawv qhia. Kuv xav tias cov menyuam yaus xav rau lawv tus kheej, "Vim li cas peb tsis hnov los ntawm cov txiv neej nyob ntawm no?" Maps zoo li ib feem tseem ceeb ntawm kev piav dab neeg. Yog li ntawd yog lub cover, ho. Tias yog vim li cas koj tsis tuaj yeem ua ib nrab ntawm phau ntawv npog. Zaj dab neeg pib muaj, txawm koj nyiam los tsis nyiam.
Kuv tab tom tham nrog qee cov menyuam yaus txog kuv phau ntawv, thiab lawv tsis zoo nkauj tsis zoo txog lub npog. Nws hu ua Chuck Dugan yog AWOL.
Mr. Anderson Phau Ntawv
Thaum koj nyeem phau ntawv, koj tsis tau mus rau tus phab ej lub npe kom txog thaum ib tug neeg hais txog nws hauv kev sib tham. Yog li cov menyuam yaus no nug tias vim li cas cov lus piav qhia tsis yog nws lub npe xwb. Thiab kuv xav rau kuv tus kheej, "Zoo, nws nyob ntawm lub npog, koj xav tau dab tsi ntxiv?" Tab sis nws yog ib qho zoo kom ceev faj rau tej yam zoo li ntawd. Qhia zaj dab neeg zoo heev yog kuv khob tshuaj yej. Thiab kuv tsis yog tib tug xwb.
G: Koj puas pom zoo nrog cov menyuam thaum twg los xij txog lawv qhov kev thuam?
E: Kuv pom zoo nrog 100% ntawm lawv qhov kev thuam. Lawv ua rau kuv xav tsis thoob tiag. Chuck yog ib tug neeg tsav nkoj uas yug los, thiab lawv nug kuv tias, "Yog tias nws yog ib tug neeg tsav nkoj zoo li no, ua cas nws thiaj tswj tsis tau lub nkoj?" Kuv yeej tsis tau suav cov sij hawm uas nws dhia tawm los yog tau cheb tawm ntau lub nkoj hauv phau ntawv. Yog li kuv nyuam qhuav hais tias, "Zoo, koj paub, nws tsis muaj lub lis piam zoo. Ntau tus neeg phem. Teeb meem ntau. Nws tuaj yeem nyob hauv nkoj, yog, tab sis nws kuj yog ib tus neeg ua luam dej zoo sib xws. Yog li thaum cov neeg phem tshwm sim, nws yuav yog ib lub tswv yim zoo kom dhia hla mus. "
Qhov kuv tsis tau hais yog yuav ua li cas tus thawj dhia hla kev tshoov siab los ntawm Paul Newman, los ntawm ib zaj yeeb yaj kiab hu ua "The Mackintosh Man" los ntawm 1974. Newman tus neeg tsis pub leejtwg paub uas tuaj ntes tus neeg soj xyuas tsis zoo / tus neeg ntxeev siab ua si los ntawm James Mason, uas tshwm sim. kom zoo nkauj ntawm kev ua ib tug neeg ruam thiab yog nyob rau hauv cahoots nrog tub ceev xwm hauv zos, thiab yog li cov ntxhuav tig rau peb hero. Newman paub tias nws yog tus yuav raug ntes. Yog li ntawd, nyob rau hauv ib tug tag nrho ce thiab khi, nws dhia hla lub nkoj, ua luam dej hauv qab lub nkoj mus rau sab nraud, thiab khiav. Nws daig nrog kuv ua ib qho kev xav tsis thoob txav los ntawm ib tug neeg laus puas tau hauv cov yeeb yaj kiab.
G: Coj peb rov qab mus rau cov txheej txheem tom qab koj phau ntawv, thiab feem ntau ntawm koj txoj haujlwm ua tau, koj tuaj yeem piav qhia rau kuv tias koj lub sijhawm zoo li cas thaum pib ua haujlwm tshiab? Kuv xav paub tias muaj dab tsi tshwm sim thaum koj raug xa mus rau Project Puffin.
E: Txiav illustration board. Kuv tsis paub yog vim li cas kuv ua qhov no, tab sis kuv mam li ua tib zoo tshem lub rooj tsavxwm. Tsis muaj ib yam dab tsi ntawm nws tseem. Tab sis kuv xav tias kuv tsuas yog ua kom sov, zoo li lub cav tsheb.
Tom qab ntawd kuv mus rau hauv thiab kos kuv cov npoo, ib nti ntawm txhua sab ntawm lub rooj tsavxwm. Me ntsis bracket, koj paub, longitude thiab latitude.
Kuv ntxuav kuv palette. Kuv muaj cov xim zoo nkauj palettes, ua los ntawm cov plooj (porcelain). Lawv zoo li niaj hnub no ua los ntawm cov yas, tab sis kuv nyiam cov plooj (porcelain).
Ntxuav cwj mem ... Kuv tsis tau siv cwj mem ntau lately. Ib tug neeg hloov manufacturers, kuv xav. Cov tshiab tsuas yog flick number case txhua qhov chaw. Lawv zoo li tsis tuav ib txoj kab huv.
Qee lub sij hawm nws zoo li qhov kawg ntawm lub sijhawm. Ntau yam cuab yeej thiab khoom siv uas kuv siv ... Kuv zoo li tau tuaj txog lub sijhawm hnub poob. Feem ntau cov illustrators zoo li muaj xws li tam sim ntawd kev twb kev txuas mus rau lub digital stylus thiab ntsiav tshuaj. Kuv tsis muaj kev sib tham, kuv ntshai.
Nws yog tib txoj kev nrog e-phau ntawv. Kuv nyeem cov phau ntawv hardback thiab ib txwm muaj xaum los ua cov ntawv me me. Kuv xav tias txawm tias qhov kev ntxhib los mos ntawm daim ntawv ua rau qhov kev paub dhau los, koj puas paub? Nws tsuas yog ntxiv me ntsis kev vam meej hauv koj lub siab koj yuav tsis tau txais lwm yam. Nws zoo li mus rau lub tsev qiv ntawv tiag tiag es tsis txhob siv algorithms los nrhiav cov phau ntawv tshiab. Qee zaum, qhov xwm txheej tsis tuaj yeem yog ib qho algorithm.
G: Qhov kev huam yuaj tsis tuaj yeem yog algorithm. Dab tsi yog kab. Yog tias peb muaj txhua hnub, kuv yuav cia koj nthuav qhov ntawd. Tab sis alas, peb tsis ua. Cia peb tham txog Puffin. Koj txoj kev xav li cas tom qab ntawd?
E: Nws yuav tsum yog daim duab kos. Kuv hnov qhov ntawd thiab xav tias, "Zoo, cia peb tsis quav ntsej qhov ntawd." Koj paub, kuv cov duab kos tsis zoo tshwj xeeb. Kuv doodles zoo li "cov neeg uas tsis tuaj yeem kos" doodles. Tsis pub lub façade poob!
Yog li kuv xav tias, nws yuav me me, tab sis nws yuav tsum ua siab loj. Nws yuav tsum muaj tus cwj pwm. Yog li ntawd kuv tau mus rau hauv, thiab kuv saib ntawm qhov tseeb tsab xov xwm. Kuv tsis nco qab tias puffins zoo li tsis muaj dab tsi zoo li penguins ... yog li thawj qhov kuv tau ua yog tau txais ib pawg ntawm cov duab puffins.
Kuv xav tau lub lag luam puffin no - nws muaj cov rooj sib tham hauv xov tooj, koj paub, qhov no yog tus kws tshaj lij puffin - kom muaj lub hnab luv luv thiab khi. Tab sis nws kuj yog ib tug tsiaj ntawm xwm, yog li kuv xav kom nws npaj rau kev nqis tes ua. Nws yog noog; Tej zaum muaj cua daj cua dub, nws txoj hlua khi yog fluttering, thiab nws txhais tes yog, zoo li, tuav lub hnab ntawv, tawm ntawm lub kaum sab xis. Nws muaj ib ceg nce saum huab cua kom sib npaug.
Lub cev zoo li cas - dab tsi yog funny? Qe zoo li, kuv xav. Yog li ntawd ces nws lub taub hau, kuv kos ob peb versions. Qhov kuv nyiam zoo li Eddie Munster. Kuv xav tias nws zoo li ntse, thiab txawv, thiab kuv xav tias, "Qhov ntawd zoo li yog." Yog li kuv sim tshuab nws, thiab nws tsis muaj qhov tsw zoo lawm. Thiab qhov ntawd yog qhov teeb meem ib txwm, tau txais lub txim los ntawm lub tswv yim me me kom nyob twj ywm ib zaug nws dhau los ua cev nqaij daim tawv.
Yog li peb muaj lub taub hau Frankenstein, hom ntawm lub trapezoid lossis rhombazoid, yog tias lo lus yog [nws tsis yog], ib yam dab tsi ncaj nraim ntawm ob qhov kawg.
Thaum pib, kuv tau sim muab qhov muag qhia rau nws, tab sis nrog lub taub hau me me no, thaum kawg kuv tsuas yog sim dots. Kuv nco qab lub claymation penguin los ntawm "Cov Tawg Tsis Zoo" - Koj puas tau pom nws? - Cov neeg tsim khoom tau tswj hwm ntau qhov kev nthuav tawm rau hauv lub qhov muag penguin ob lub qhov muag me me. Thaum nws ntsia unblinkingly, nws yog heev unnerving.
Kuv tau tshem cov cua, thiab xav tias, "Yog tias koj saib ntawm nws ob txhais ceg, peb yuav tau muab nws khau puffin rau nws." Yog li ntawd kuv thiaj mus saib lub Koom Txoos, uas yog ib tug qub tsim classic khau khiab British.
... Yog li, yog, kuv pib xav txog khau puffin. Nws yuav tsa nws txhais ceg ncaj qha los qhia tias nws hnav khau tshwj xeeb ua los ntawm tus kws tshaj lij khau puffin qhov kawg. Lub npe zoo rau khau puffin yog dab tsi?
Goslings, Paddlers, lub npe ntev nrog rau Rudders ... Ntawm no, kuv tsuas yog sim tsim cov khau puffin npe. Nws yog ib tug noog marine, nws txhais taw yog qhov tseem ceeb rudders. Yog li kuv pib honing rau ntawm Puddlers, Raddlers, thiab nyob rau: "Rudders Custom Made."
Nws yog taciturn. Tab sis nws cov thom khwm phim cov xim ntawm nws cov beak. Qhov ntawd yog nws ib qho ntsiag to nod rau style, vim nws khi yog dub nrog dawb splotches. Cov no tau ua los ntawm lub tshuab ntaus ntawv kho ribbon. Nws yog ib qho me me ntawm zaj duab xis nrog dawb emulsion ntawm ib sab. Yog tias koj khawb ib lub xaum tshaj qhov ntawd, koj tuaj yeem tawm me ntsis dawb. Yog li ntawd yog dab tsi nws khi dawb splotches yog.
He zoo li kev lag luam, tab sis tsis lom zem. Nws nkawm khau yog qhov zoo vim tias lawv yog cov rudders: lawv yog cov duab ntawm nws txhais taw, thiab nws muaj ko taw webbed. Lub hnab ntawv zoo li ib yam dab tsi uas koj yuav tau nqa ntawm B-52: Cov Tub Rog Tub Rog muaj cov hnab ntawv loj loj no. Cov txiv neej yuav mus nrog leej twg paub pes tsawg phau ntawv thiab dab tsi-tag nrho - yog li, triple-wide, accordion briefcase.
G: Kuv pom qhov tseeb tias koj ua nws nkawm khau wingtips zoo nkauj ntse, pom nws yog ib tug noog.
E: Kuv tsis tau xav txog qhov ntawd.
G: Koj hais lus dag.
E: Kuv tau xav txog qhov kuv tau hnov cov khau tau piav qhia tias "perforated." Kuv nyiam lo lus ntawd, lwm qhov anachronism rau lub sijhawm dhau los - qub lingo. Nws yog dab tsi nyob rau hauv kuv lub siab. Tab sis yog, wingtips. Tau kawg.
G: Kuv twv kuv yuav tsum tau xaus rau lo lus nug overplayed, vim kuv paub tias kuv tab tom noj rau hauv koj cov hnub ci ntsa iab ntawm no. Yog tias koj tsuas tuaj yeem nqa ib yam ntawm so haujlwm los ua kev kos duab nrog, nws yuav ua li cas?
E: Kuv tus cwj mem muaj hmoo. Nws hnyav. Nws yog German. Nws yog ib qho cuab yeej loj. Tus cwj mem ntawd txhais tau ntau heev rau kuv.
Kuv tab tom nyeem ib phau ntawv menyuam yaus tam sim no qhov twg txhua tshooj pib nrog qhov zoo li yog ib qho kev piav qhia me me, thiab nws sov heev. Yog li, kuv xav tau qhov ntawd.
G: Zoo siab tau ntsib koj thiab tham nrog koj ncaj ncees. Kuv mam li nco ntsoov xa qhov no rau koj txoj kev ua ntej tshaj tawm.
E: Ua tsaug, Kuv txaus siab rau qhov ntawd. Kuv muaj hunch muaj cov lus kuv tsis xav nyob qhov twg nyob ib leeg.
