The
Magic Bus in the original led to immediate associations
to Ken Kesey, his Merry Pranksters and Tom Wolfe's chronicle
of their adventures -- 'Electric Kool-Aid Acid Test'.
I used a stock photo of a guy with an afro, turning it
into a silhouette. I built a gradient using colors from
a poster for 'Hair' and filled the silhouette, then borrowed
some text from the beginning of Wolfe's book to fill in.
The title font text was filled with a gradient and a single
pixel stroke was added.
