At K’s other job, he’s got an extensive interview with Steven Cerio. You may know Cerio from a long run of work with sonic pioneers The Residents, and posters for Primus, King Crimson, Monster Magnet…as well as working with Nickelodeon, Fantagraphics, Bill Graham Presents…he’s a dizzy talent, and K finds out a real gentlemen.
Grab a towel, jump in. You’ll need it.
“Being that I’m perpetually late to the party, it really didn’t surprise me all that much when I found out that Steven Cerio was the brains (or meat and potatoes) behind Atlantic Drone. I was already a big fan of his visuals (think The Residents for only one place to start), so when the road lead to Atlantic Drone, I was more embarrassed that I hadn’t clued into the signposts (more on those below) up ahead. A dizzingly prolific talent, Cerio is some ways like an inverted Little Dutch Boy (sorry, Mr. Cerio) who prefers to take his finger out, but is keenly aware of the importance of putting your fingers in it as well. Two opposing points of view? We’ll get to that, too, along with biscuits, Rick Wakemen’s attire and the dire need for a new hand gesture.
Grab a towel to mop up spilled milk and leaking ids…free association rests stops provided along the way as the journey becomes the destination. And by all means, when you’re done, leave the seat up…”
