Space Becomes You - by Someoddpilot (Hardcover)

About the Book

Space Becomes You: A Mythology is a project by Someoddpilot that explores modern myth-making by deconstructing it and then reimagining it through visual experimentation. This book was conceived through an iterative process by which we constructed an intricate simulacrum, a universe consisting of its own gods, symbols, language, and imagery. This is our myth.

Book Synopsis

Space Becomes You―A Mythology is a nearly 300-page art book stuffed with album-cover worthy photography and an out-of-this-world narrative that reads like 2001: A Space Odyssey crossed with a UFO cult. This studio monograph evolves thematically as an introduction, initiation, and submission to an intergalactic alien religion filled with surreal cosmic landscapes, psychedelic rituals, and curious beings.

The book's striking imagery is intercut and supported by messaging that serves as cosmic transmissions and thoughtful meditations on how to understand humanity's place within the universe. Someoddpilot guides you through this psychedelic trip and challenges you to answer the big questions myths are based on―"who are you?" and "why are you here?"

Bands, brands, celebrities, and political parties. Mythology is at the heart of our times - it unifies and divides us. Inspired by the quick and intense rise of political and cultural tribalism in the U.S. and Someoddpilot's own practice of brand creation and world-building, the studio set out to create a new mythology, and this time everyone's invited: as one planet in a sea of stars.

In the age of tribalism, this is the biggest tribe of all. Now available in this galaxy and the next.
