Back in January of this year I was listening to Roger Waters’ album The Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking and I realized I could do some vivid illustrations for the song. I figured that I could even plot out the number of drawings I’d need, and what they’d entail, in much the same way as I write a comic script. I even broke it down into seconds, so the drawings would line up with the music. I have a proto-type of a YouTube video that syncs up the drawings and the audio track but I’d like to tweak it some more before I make that public. I am, however, ready to start sharing some of the artwork itself.
I’ve probably said it before on this site, but Roger Waters’ music resonates with me on a deeply personal level and he’s a big artistic hero of mine. I’m aware that some people — especially David Gilmour fans — find his solo efforts to be sparse in the musical department, but his overall use of atmosphere and narrative in addition to music stimulates my brain like crazy. I’m a story teller at heart, regardless of what medium I’m currently working in, and I’m amazed by Roger’s ability to make a sweeping and epic story into one body of music. It’s one of those times where I lament that the relative and subjective nature of reality; I wish I could share with you exactly the joy I experience from the music. I can’t do that, of course, but hopefully you’ll be able to see my love reflected in these drawings.
This particular album — the Pros and Cons of Hitchhiking — tells the story of a man unsure whether he’s happy in his marriage. Over the course of a few hours early one morning he has a series of dreams about him picking up a female hitchhiker and running away with her. Through the course of this dream affair this person’s insecurities and desires are laid bare to the listener, and the main character ultimately comes to a conclusion about his life. I’ve always been endlessly fascinated by dreams, and I love the intimate exploration of dreams that this album details.
I’m considering collecting these drawings and adding original captions and making a book out of it. I’m pretty certain I could find a wily way to skirt copyright laws with. But! Without further ado:
