Compromise between these two measurements is 14:9, a common aspect ratio used to compose an acceptable image for 4:3 images to present on larger screens. My initial measurements brought me to 14.9:9.9 which is very close to the 4:3 aspect ratio of most mobile phones in portrait mode. Frank, an obviously more quiet figure due to his periods of absence away from mainstream media, composes a visual of himself being disturbed to pair with an album of atmospheric self-reflective ballads.Īnother piece of evidence that adds to the theme of interruption is the aspect ratio of the center photo. Whether the hand in front of his face is an initial reaction to the bright light or an unwelcome photograph, this portion of the piece gives us the sense that we are bursting in on an intimate moment. As the light interrupts the predominantly dark atmosphere, we get the sense that Frank is being interrupted. The light clashing with the darker environment brings out a full range of colors, and we notice more subtle features of Frank’s upper body, such as the water droplets and his chest tattoo. Uniform white tiles form the backdrop are reminiscent of bathroom or shower walls, a reflective and private space for some people. The light illuminating Frank’s left side paints the photograph with harsh shadows, revealing the apparent darkness of the space he is in. Frank is positioned away from the camera, with his hand covering his face, a seemingly candid pose. ![]() There are nuanced details in the composition of the central picture that tell a deeper story that seems to go along with the music on the album. Even the closing track for the album “Futura Free” shares part of its name with the font, and provides a great example of these transcendental rhythms. The custom edit to the font embodies a spacey and retro tone to match the atmospheric sounds on the album. The title font, as discovered by reddit user rafasdfgh is actually the very common Futura SH Bold with the tops of some of the letters shaved to make curves. ![]()
