Artist's Comments

Because I wanted a design for an erisian themed tattoo and because, well, just copying exactly what exists already isn't really in the spirit of the whole thing.

I kinda like how it turned out

so

Behold an overly obsessively symbolic apple/23 design.


The main key points are

1. The entire design is a stylised number 5, well the main leaf/stem/skin portion is.

2. The inner core of the apple is a stylised 23, the number 2 above and joining into the 3

3. It is an apple, woohoo.

The lesser and more pointless key points are

4. It is exactly 23% of an apple (honest, it started out in 3d and everything)

5. The main straight line (hence the entire apple) deviates from vertical by 23 degrees



OK, so the last two are mostly because there should be 5 points, whatya gonna do?


I think the whole apple with a hidden core of 23 fits into things quite nicely.



Feel free to copy, use, spindle, mutilate, deface and otherwise abuse it or any part of it as you may, or may not, see fit. I just wanted an original design for a tattoo and since that's been scarred onto my body, I'm finished with it.

holy shit, soo cool. is there any way you can turn that 5 into a 7?

i have been searching for a tat in the form of a 7 but "apple" is my middle name... weird right?

anyway -- i'm sure you can see how that would be perfect for me. let me know, thanks so much.

I had a little bit of a play and it didn't really go anywhere, either ended up non 7 like or non apple like or just a generally displeasing shape.

A simple mirror was about as good as it got, I mean, a reversed 5 is almost a 7 :)

Ok this gets the fucking rad award. Really one of my favorite bits I have seen in a long time!

This is too good, especially getting the 5 in there as well! It cries out to be a company logo. Maybe you should start a music company?

Sounds like an opportunity to be sued out of existence by apple, or possibly 'the beatles' I forget if their apple still exists.

An opportunity that should not be missed.

Feel free to do it in my stead.

Just wondering if you knew... Your apple (and your description of it) is featured on page 33 of the Metaclysmia Discordia. [link]=Downloads&d_op=viewdownloaddetails&lid=30&title=Metaclysmia%20Discordia I have the printed version. I was fliping through and recognised your picture. Awesome, eh?

Yup, I know, 'tis sweet :)

The author asked about using it in when I posted to an lj community ages and ages ago.

Made a slightly higher rez print version for it and everything.
