TONESTAR FOLKTEK is an Arias Blaze / Folktek Fibonacci flight, feast and fancy. Studio Electronics was excited when Arias told us, "I like your layout - it's very approachable. And you've got some hex things happening which I'm all about" Who knew the Tonestar was so hexy?
Arias Blaze continued "I'm a circle person so you're going to end up with something that is circle driven. The design will end up like a mescaline vision. If you're not into that, say the word now..." Oh but Studio Electronics was. He continued — well he wrote this bit before the last, "One of my goals is not just to throw some image stuff on this but to create something that makes sense visually as it corresponds to functionality. I find that kind of thing difficult with complex layouts like this - it's difficult to find the room for pure design, yours or mine. But at this point I'm starting to come to something..."
We think it's quite something and... necessary.
