A series of risograph concert posters for Black Midi at the Terrace in Madison. Black Midi’s music is chaotic, experimental, and frenetic prog rock. The band is named after an electronic genre where the computer is overwhelmed with impossible music arrangements of thousands of stacked notes. I pulled some of these weird compositions from YouTube videos to make up the background shapes.

I opted to use Horn Please, a typeface by Nick Sherman, as a stark and bold contrast to the varied collage of notes.
