I found this article refreshing! Because Indeed not much people paying attention, on who's hand was it that brouth back to life in new light a metroid 3d experience.
Not only hight proflied programmers and coders, but a brilliant thought provoking artist, Android Jones.
The story i am about to tell you happened with me on december of 2016, but it happened years before, i waited for 2 years for it's to happen. I was notified that Android Jones gonna come into Russia with his Show Samskara and was shock to me because i felt that Metroid Universe is so dear to him as it is to me. Also he was high psychedelic music/art fan and also understand those aspects of metroid that i am cherish. Facts That Chozo is a reference to a (Toth the Athlantean, and the Samus is using energy features created by them) It all perfectly fit and blend with psychedelic community that i was stealing myself to met this guy!
But unfortunately in 2014 it became known that AJ was not going to make show in Moscow, he is gonna be Settle down in Ukraine first... That was a drag but i never shed a bit of hope to see the guy.
And there it goes. 2016 winter. I attemped a show watched everything... But i was happened to also sit and sketch there, and ecountered with a beautiful girl named Kalima Shakti, Kate Shakti, also helped me to reach my dream of meeting like minded individual. Kate shakti in fact was a curator of this show, asked me if i had my own universe like Andrew did, and i showed her a little bit, she liked but though i was not enough , and we put it bit on hold.. (right now im started to have my own exhibition, im developed my universe quite a bit). Anyway shortly after that enounter and me saying to her that i wish to met a guy... She was like an angel... trully... she Said that it's gonna be secret party and Invited me! I was bit of a shock to me, no money even needed! I was blown away, the party rule was to make once mask and showed up in it, i maked one also! She was pretty too.. heh.
She engaged us wuth Android, and we shared a little thought on each other, Andrew told me that as he was a child and when he was operated he found that metroid was huge influence on him because it was not only just a game but a very healing and experience those guys out in R&D1 stuff at nintendo make a great input into industry making our childhood ineed greatly wonderful. SM also helped me to carry on in the time of post ussr, time was truly post apocalyptic...
But i was amazed how life can be so fluqid unconditional so perfect, whe you met your soul buddies irl, it was like crazy he told me why he left a concept art industry because he didn't wanted to be a screw in a big machine industry. Also because CA was very selfish... and he wanted to let go of his ego. He became new man after leaving ILM and all that stuff because he can't make serial pictures (he even wanted to be animator) but in fact he became just an individual artist.
There was also plesant moment in our conversation i gift him a present that i was drawing specially for this night! It was a bit unexpected really, when i recieved gift in return, that present was a huge deal. Because i was meditate on this piece for so long time (Harmony of Dragons) he gifted me a centre piece of pins ,a man who is meditation at the center of I found that it has a lot of shamanic wisdoms about my nature. To harmonize the good and bad in me, cold and ice.
Also he recommended to read Dark Tower when i was started to read i realize why it's suggested. I was also blown away by that fact that my future beloved girfriend is in fact in love with Dark tower series too. Well this is a facts of my encounter with AJ.
Thank you for reading, i hope you like it!
