After reading the article and listing words and phrases, I began making visual associations to create potential concepts. Here are a couple of pages from my sketchbook, showing rough ideas. Not every sketch becomes a fully formed idea, but I try to draw anything that may lead somewhere.
These are the sketches I presented to Billboard Art Director, Christoper Elsemore. I wanted to show the concept of artists using 'workarounds' to keep their music playing.
