I think we should make fabric!!! I have been seeing a lot of great patterns and creating some myself. We have a collab going for the patterns too! This is footage of samples patterns I designed and had printed on fabric. It would be cool if we sold seasonal fabric, or just things made out of the fabric. I am not the only one who has made some great designs, I just printed the ones that I made for a test :)
Ok, this version is copyright violation free. I hope everybody understands that I did not remix with an image that is a violation on purpose and as soon as it was brought to my attention I began to address it. I really love annejumps illustration of Red that I used in my previous remix, but I went a different way for this so that the wolf and Red went together. I couldnt find a wolf to go with Anne's Red.
I took this photo of the WTC when I was 16 years old. It was 1995 and I was on a trip with my high school marching band. Six years later as we all know these buildings along with lots of lives were distroyed by a terrorist attack. This is my visual memorial to the lives lost and to life as we know it drastically changing.
The music is something I arranged on GarageBand. I used two 8 measure bass samples, and one drum sample, and added Malicore's "Make-Up Sax" track.
Hey guys!
Here is a little something I am fuckin' with. I took my "KWREC Logo remix" and made kaleidoscope frames of the image and then put my remix "A Record is a Method" as the music.
Lots of love,
Amber

I WISH for this REmix to be used as the music for a video about hitRECord.
This is my first RECord of an audio REmix I have uploaded here and am kind of nervous. I have only ever recorded my own songs. I got the RECords I used for my REmix from Dr. Gory's album of selects for Automator. I listened to all of them and then got an idea for this REmix. It is mostly made from tori's track and goodchildbadchild's song.
I made this song by arranging and looping 12 tracks of little samples on garage band

I think I can make this better so I might redo it. It took a long time. This will be my last record for about a week. I am going on vacation with limited internet. I will try to login and look at stuff if I get a chance. I will miss you all <3
This t-shirt is my favorite out of the the ones I designed. I had to have one made for myself just to see what it would look like. I ordered it from a company called CustomInk. I made the shirt color lighter then in the design I recorded and changed the logo to black from white because it wasn't coming out right when I uploaded it to the site to have it made. I love this year's summer collection and I know the choices were hard to make with so many great things proposed. I am not upset that none of my designs were picked and I got a late start in the game anyway. I just wanted to say that so it doesn't get misunderstood that I am somehow saying that this shirt is better or should have been picked. The way I see it is that there will be other collections and maybe something I made will end up there. If I do make it into any future collection this is the thing I would want to see most because of how near and dear the Monster City Collaboration is to my heart :)

This isn't that great becase I made it really fast, but maybe it can be useful :)
I was given this giraffe, who's name is also Giraffe, when I had my second surgery at age two. I was born with what the doctor thought to be a paralyzed muscle in my right eye. Because of this I am blind in that eye. It was only after my first surgery where my right eye was removed to try to repair it, that the doctor discovered that there was practically no muscle to repair. I was scheduled for another surgery the following year where they removed both of my eyes and took part of the same muscle from my left eye and put it in the right. This surgery was unsuccessful and did not help the vision in my right eye. The second surgery was one of my earliest memories and so was Giraffe.
I developed a fear of doctors from the surgery and Giraffe made me feel safe when I went to any doctor appointments. I always gripped him by the neck and squeezed tightly. One day when I was four I had a doctor appointment and I went to get Giraffe only to find his neck was broken. It wasn't ripped off, but it slumped over and I couldn't fix it. My pediatrician Dr Jones noticed I was upset and the condition Giraffe was in. He told me he was going to heal him. He took him from me and gave him a cast with surgical tape. His neck stood up! He was healed! From that moment on my fear of doctors lessened.

I am always so impressed with Cam_4's crochet characters. Not only are they just like the illustration, but the time it takes to make each one takes a lot of dedication. I have wanted to do this REmix for a while and I finally broke down and did it. When I finish editing it this REmix will be the example I use in a video about how I do all my work on my iPad. It will be relaesed this week :)

This is a personal photo journal that expresses who I am as a person. I have included 16 photos and now I will give a fact about myself that relates to each photo starting at the top and going from left to righ :)
1. I love hearts! They are my favorite shape and I love to include them in my art!
2. My favorite time of day is dusk. That always feels like the time to relax and watch a sunset.
3. I love animals, but my favorite of all has to be dogs! Some people call me the dog whisperer as a joke. They love me too. I can't have a dog where I live, but my friends have a chocolate lab named Mason who is my sidekick.
4. I have a rock collection that I have been saving sense I was a child, all from different places.
5. I love the autumn weather when it is just cold enough to wear a beanie and my favorite one was hand knit by my friend Diane who has had my work in her art gallery Studio 74 in Fresno for the past 2 years.
6. I play guitar as one of my many musical hobbies. I am not very good, but I have fun. My favorite guitar is my Fender Telecaster.
7. There is a tree in a neighborhood near mine that I absolutly love and go to visit from time to time. At first the people who live there thought I was weird, but they know I am now.
8. I am a humanitarian and feel great empathy and compassion for people in need.
9. I love my son Oliver and spending time with him more than anything else in life!
10. As a hobby sometimes I make jewelry.
11. I have just started dieting to get back in shape and I am committed to walking each day rain or shine.
12. A is for Amber.
13. My son and I have a great relationship. he knows I love flowers and sometimes he brings me some.
14. I love music!!! I am a musician, but I also love going to live shows and hearing and feeling great music.
15. I am young at heart and still love a lot of the same things I did as a child. Monsters where a huge deal to me and they kinda still are.
16. I don't golf, but I enjoy taking pictures in thrift stores and 13 is my favorite number.
I wanted to contribute to this collab for a while, but just found the time today. This photo is from the end of 2011, but I gained a bunch of weight I am now trying to lose and don't have a good one from this year :)

I am in the holiday mood, so here is my take on the public domain song "Carol of the Bells". I did this with my MIDI controler for nine of the twelve tracks and I trippled the same 2 measure drum loop I got from GarageBand and put different effects on each like double filter and vocoder. I hope it can be usefull :)

This is part 2 of footage of fabric samples i had made of my REmixes from a company called Spoonflower. I am not selling this in my fabric shop there, but I wanted to have these samples made to show what we could do as far as making our own line of fabric using our patterens and making patterns out of our REmixes. The last video contained footage of 30 different fabric samples, and this one contains 31 because Sinnamin's RECorder Bunny fabric will be the border of a quilt my mom is making for me using my fabric samples. This quilt will have REmixes containing contributions of hundreds of records!!! Sorry the quality isn't as good as I had wanted, but I did film it with my phone. It is going to take me forever to add resources :)
I made this today with some supplies I had from when I make jewelry sometimes. If you want one of these I have some for sale in my Etsy shop http://www.etsy.com/shop/ADHGraphicDesign :)
This my last record for about a week or so because I will be visiting family for the holidays. I hope I don't miss too much while I am gone <3
Sense people seemed to like my christmas version of this I decided to make a few more. These photos are all taken by me with my iphone accept the one of the carpet from the Orpheum Theater when I went to Fall Formal, that one I took with a Nikon L110. I am resourcing the ones I have recorded to hr. I take way too many photos to ever upload them all. I am kinda obsessed :)
Just having a little fun! This is for the Wallpaper/Wrapping Paper/Fabric Pattern Collab :)
I had an idea for a simple beautiful, and not too expensive, but also feminine necklace that looks like the rec button and this is what I came up with. I bought the pices on ebay and have not recieved it yet because the items are coming from Hong Kong. I already had some of the blue beads so I took a photos of those and did a digital sketch of the red glass jewel in the setting I ordered. It was somewhat difficult to find the items I needed. I have however found a lot of ten of each of the items I need to make some more of these. The pendant is 25mm and the beads 6mm. The setting is silver plated and so is the clasp.
If you are interested in owning one of these I will have only 10 available for sale. I will sell them first come first serve. Also I require payment upfront of $25 that will cover the necklace and shipping to you when it is ready. The parts are coming from different ebay sellers, but all in Hong Kong, so it could take up to one month for them to arrive to me. I can make every necklace the day the supplies arrive and ship them the very next day. If you would like to pre order one of these please email me amberdawnhilton@gmail.com
Jazminny and I did a trade. One of my hitRECord hemp friendship bracelets for an amazing watercolor jell pen painting that you can see in resources below. This is another little painting that was on a beautiful card that came with it! This might be useful for remixes here, but if you do use it make sure to give her credit :)
Jazminny and I did a trade. One of my hitRECord hemp friendship bracelets for this amazing water color and jell pen painting and This is so beautiful I feel I owe her something more. Jasminny you should expect another little something in the mail in a little while. This might be useful for remixes here, but if you do use it make sure to give her credit :)
Ok, this is it!!! The real thing!!! Here is the necklace I designed a couple weeks ago and ordered parts to create! I thought it would take a lot longer to recieve them because they came from various places over seas. I have 5 of the 10 still available. I will be putting them in my etsy shop http://www.etsy.com/shop/ADHGraphicDesign tonight if anyone wants to pick one up. They are $25 and that includes shipping to anywhere :)
I used to pretend this bottle had a genie in it when I would stay at my Grandma's house as a child. I wasn't allowed to touch it, but I still just liked to pretend. Grandma is 95 years old now and just won a recent battle with cancer. They had to take her toe, but she is still alive and cancer free! She gave me this bottle when I visited her over Christmas. I took the photo with my iphone :)
I made these from some supplies that i bid for and got cheap on ebay. I wanted to try making jewelry using images and capturing them in a metal setting sealed with glass. It is a lot harder than I thought. All of these ended up having bubbles. I now have this expirence and the advise from some other jewelry makers, so next time I make some they will be better. Also the last two things I finished came out perfect. I will post those after this. I think something like this would be great to offer for sale for like a season, or different ones each season. I chose Sojushots' images because I knew I would be wearing all of the stuff and I love all his work so much. These would be great for so many images on this site. I sent some to Soju in New Zealand to do with whatever he wants. I will probably send more next time that are better when I find a deal on supplies.
I could not resource the Dalkulla illustration "she will always remain a child" but I tried :)
Yet another remix of some remixes for the Monster City Collaboration. For some reason the site would not allow me to resource the image A Beautiful Day in Monster City (REmix)
I made this to maybe be used as a bumper for videos and video REmixers to play with :)
