This book is inspired by the relationship between rising aggressive culture in rap and the religious idealization and extravagance of the renaissance. This piece takes the form of a bible which explores the similarities of extravagance, relationships, martyrdom and immortality all in the name of Gospel, in becoming the True G.
Typography is influenced by renaissance architecture combined with urban styles. Ornate, their representations are married with a series of narrative essays from prominent authors of the academic text ‘The Black Church and Hip Hop Culture.’ Various lyrics accompany key issues and topics emphasized through out the book as quotes and affirmations reminiscent of the good book of moral parables and life codes.
It ain’t what it used to be…
You are Juliann - a wandering hero in search of her calling. With the aid of your talents, your wits and your faithful friend and cat MOCHI, can you overcome the dangers in your path to save the day and/or make a few quid? Or will you die a cold lonely death - having achieved nothing with your worthless life?
TO PLAY - Simply make your choice when the moment arises and go to the indicated panel to see the outcome. When you die or otherwise cannot continue - return to the beginning and start over until you’ve had enough, then close it and give Julie a buzz about any new quests.
Now hungry and thirsty for the next project JULIANN and MOCHI find themselves in the city of FREELANCIA…
I find it the most exhilarating way to explore a new city is to slap it. My slap art is an eclectic mix of illustrations, situations and mantras that leaning toward the absurd and are recognizably neon in unrecognizable places. Always on the look out to swap and collaborate; hit me up @jurassic_jules on the DMs.

The year is 2028, three years have past since the Great Cyber war of 2025. What was once Mc Luans theory of a united global village has since been divided into continental servers controlled by ruling governments. The most liberal and transparent of which is controlled by the Neu European Union. The development of 9G technology has enabled EU citizens to live seamlessly between their real and digital lives under the constant eye of an omnipresent government.
When everyone is watching you got to keep your cool. (Concept development/Art Direction/Design/Illustration/Animation)
This is Gill Swagchez. Mr Swagchez is a strange and mysterious mer-creature who loves to party. He’s been body-shamed and barred from the Black Lagoon Pool Party for inappropriately tight speedos and casual attitude for sliming anywhere and everywhere. Mr Swagchez has been residing in the sewers and drainage system of the local public pool since the day disco died (July 12th 1979) There he resides among the soggy bandages and damp mould, luring people into the drains with siren disco grooves. Those who have stumbled across this mythical, albeit wildly inappropriate creature have said that “he’s one fishy bastard.”
