Handselecta: The Chaz Bojórquez Interview. June 2023.
Handselecta DOT com
To celebrate the 10th Anniversary of Flip The Script we have produced a new limited edition capsule designed by Chaz Bojórquez. The new edition is bound in gold book cloth with a reflective chrome book jacket. This special anniversary drop is accompanied and complimented by a coach’s jacket, a long sleeve and a short sleeve tee. The book can be purchased with the merch in options of gold or silver foil.
If you haven’t gotten a copy of Flip The Script in the past 10 years, this is the time to do it. If you already own Flip The Script, don’t buy this expecting fresh content and new interviews. We got some new things in the works, but this is about keeping this particular volume available and in print for the generations to come.

    I only understand, parts of Costa California style; from practicing, Gothic-fonts + script-calligraphy. If you're stuck on something, Try practicing the classics. Whenever you're ready, try something new. It's a bit like gardening, but you're slowly growing something else. P.S. of course, there's plenty of other calligraphy, in other languages.

    “Cape” is a dope name for someone in mass to write. Lately I really love the rounded kind of regular script some writers do. fonse is a good example, the style looks simple but it’s hard to do it, it reminds me of like prep girl hand writing. I think the people best at it had that handwriting to start with.

  • @deepblueseeds5563
    @deepblueseeds5563 Рік тому

    Same man when I was little kid it was a few things I saw where I was so captivated like pieces on the water tower in my city facing 1-95 that no one could ignore. My mom told me it was gangs so I had crazy ideas about graff writers. I got some markers and stuff but sucked and then in 7th grade I met 2 homies in art class one who had a graff piece on us arm from Crome msg a tribute to his uncle sege, and we started practicing tags together and writing in the bathrooms making mops and stuff and somehow never got caught in school.

    • @deepblueseeds5563
      @deepblueseeds5563 Рік тому

      It’s weird how me and those 2 other kids were so hyped on graff we knew about all the dudes from those crews cause they were everywhere but all the 7th graders around us had no idea what the hell we were talking about it was like no one but us had ever paid attention to graffiti once.

  • @deepblueseeds5563
    @deepblueseeds5563 Рік тому

    It kills me that I don’t live in a regular sized city anymore and every serious writer from my area gets tracked down and a news article wrote about them and cuz the cops got nothing else to do.I disagree a little bit with this dude in the way that I love styles that are based around flourishes and almost like calligraphy stuff too. Especially if they’re unique and original. I feel like a tag is unfinished without a flourish that matches the letters in some way.

    • @handselecta
      @handselecta Рік тому

      The time and place we come from informs all of our tastes. The calligraphic style with lots of flourishes might just be the latest version. Like parents int he 50s not appreciation g rock n roll. Or more like the rock n rollers not appreciating disco.
