I first tried shredding these images through a standard paper shredder, but it cut them up far too small and nonuniformly (click here for a pic). I opted to use a pasta maker, which was perfect. I then arranged them kinda randomly and snapped a few pics with my Canon 60D. I took a pic of the title card separately and integrated that via layering and grayscaling with the GIMP image program. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Delectable Machinery Gear List: "The Opulence of Static" · 12"/16" Reference Pure tom-toms with Remo Vintage Emperor coated batters/Emperor clear resonants · 6.5"x14" Reference brass snare drum with Controlled Sound X batter/Ambassador Hazy snare side · 20" Reference Pure bass drum with Remo Powerstroke III coated batter/Ebony Powerstroke III ported resonant Cymbals (from left to right, player's perspective): 20" K Heavy Ride, 19"K Dark Thin Crash, 15" K Light Hi-hats, 11" FX Oriental "Trash" Splash, 6" A Custom Splash, 13" A New Beat Hi-hats, 22" K Constantinople Renaissance Ride, 18" K Dark Thin Crash, 19" K China "Bolas Calientes" · same as "The Opulence of Static", except without the 6" A Custom Splash "Iridescent Polygonal Reveries" · same as "The Opulence of Static" "Disturb a Deterrent" · same drum setup Cymbals (from left to right, player's perspective): 20" K Heavy Ride, 19"K Dark Thin Crash, custom hats (14" K Constantinople bottom (top) / 14" K Custom High Definition bottom (bottom)), 8" A Custom Splash, small 'stack' (8" FX Trashformer / 10" A Custom EFX), 13" A New Beat Hi-hats, 19" K Custom Hybrid Crash, 18" K Custom Special Dry China, 19" K China "35 Going on Infinity" Setup 1: · same setup as "The Opulence of Static" Setup 2: · 12"/16" Reference Pure tom-toms with Remo Vintage Emperor coated batters (medium-tight'ish tuning)/Emperor clear resonants · 5"x14" Sensitone maple snare drum with Controlled Sound X batter/Ambassador Hazy snare side · 20" Reference Pure bass drum with Remo Powerstroke III coated batter (medium-tight'ish tuning)/Ebony Powerstroke III ported resonant (played with VicKick fleece-covered felt beater, and a Pearl QuadBeater) Cymbals (from left to right, player's perspective): 19" K Dark Thin Crash, 15" K Light Hi-hats, 13" A New Beat Hi-hats, 22" K Constantinople Renaissance Ride, 18" K Dark Thin Crash Setup 3: · 5"x14" Sensitone maple snare drum with Controlled Sound X batter/Ambassador Hazy snare side · 20" Reference Pure bass drum with Remo Powerstroke III coated batter (medium-tight'ish tuning)/Ebony Powerstroke III ported resonant (played with VicKick fleece-covered felt beater) Cymbals (from left to right, player's perspective): 15" K Light Hi-hats (with an LP Cyclops brass jingle tambourine sitting on top), 22" K Constantinople Renaissance Ride Sticks: Vic Firth SRH2/Hammers
