if you're implying they stole BOC's font you should know the book these are from was published in 1974.

i thnk he meant it the other way round. my guess is that it's not a direct borrowing. i'm no expert, but i would guess that that font style was pretty common in the period BoC tend to reference. That said, nice pics. Thanks for sharing!

this one's my favorite:

Orange!

And for my birthday this year, i got a toy moustache and a hexaflexagon!! Genius.

You couldn't make this shit up. I need to watch some old Look Around You episodes, this could be their 1974 annual.

that's quite 'Wicker Man', imo..

boc used bauhaus as their font on mhtrtc (id=f thats what you're referring to). hardy innovative or new.

BoC had influences for their artwork, shocker

I'm a fan actually. I just dont see the point/couldn't be arsed comparing artists so meticulously. Takes away some of the pleasure of their music for me.

I get the feeling the sun googles might blind you.

Someone better call the poh-lice and alert them of this serious copyright infringement.

The reissue

Yikes..

heh, i made a crappy (unfinished) BoC-a-like track sampling a woman instructing how to make a hexagon from a square piece of paper

started out as tape hiss and field recordings then went a bit, rubbish

borrowed the title 'Space Curve as a Folded Edge' from this guy http://www.ronresch.com/gallery
