"FORM is an online community founded in July 2018 that strives to create an inviting atmosphere for artists of all mediums to share, collaborate, discuss, and to showcase their work. Through their various compilations and showcases, they have raised tens of thousands of dollars for charities, hosted a diverse set of events (both online and in person), and released hundreds of songs and a variety of physical items."
"All Nighter is the FORM community's flagship event and compilation album series. It's a 24 hour challenge, where musicians and visual artists submit tracks and album covers they've made within the allotted 24 hour time limit. At the end, they collect around 45 of their favorite submissions into a big album and hold a vote to choose the final cover, and then release it on stores to raise money for charity."

I learned a lot during ANV8, and that's always my goal during this event. It's such a wonderful opportunity to challenge your skills ++ test your workflow efficiency within a time window. I wanted this cover to feel warm and inviting, as if you could imagine yourself sitting by the fire.
The scene is heavily inspired by classic I Spy books from the 90's. I was infatuated with them as a child, and found the imagery to be very dreamlike. The world they created felt oddly real for how fake it was - I would create stories of the people who lived there, assigning vague personalities to each imaginative figure.
