Jesse Jacobs

Over the weekend, we picked up Mathematical Solutions for a Global Crisis by Jesse Jacobs. It's an illustrated forecast of how to solve the future's woes, i.e.:

In an effort to combat overpopulation and environmental impact, by government decree, all babies, henceforth, are to be born half-sized, exponentially.

See, easy solve.

The zine is brilliant and entertaining but it's only the tip of the iceberg to explore with Jesse's work. You've probably seen it in this unbelievable Landlady record or maybe these Valley Cruise Press pins but, again, just the tip of the iceberg. You need a deep dive into his Tumblr and Instagram to get the full effect. It's such a great combination of outlandish color palettes and tripped-out weirdo space characters it's hard not to get sucked in.
