BROther ?uestion
We’re (CultureMob) throwing our first event in Seattle on Thursday June 5th at Neumos. ?uestlove of the Roots is performing a DJ set, and the night is hosted by Black Thought. One of my first thoughts after booking the gig was that I was excited to work with the iconography that is BROther ?uestion. I rushed to get a poster done so that we could get it out as soon as the details. Apparently, there was a little confusion between us and the venue: Neumos is using their own flyer under obligation from the artist’s management. But that didn’t stop me from doing my own run…
My original idea was to do a visual play on Shepherd Fariy’s Obama “Change” poster, but decided against being overtly political. So I moved on and decided to play on the vinyl/afro metaphor in combination with the mystery elements implied by the question mark.
