All three had their 20th birthday the year that album was released.
thanks
The top half has a plain white 12" x 12" square with a small black dot in the middle....this represents how much you truly know and understand about life as a 20 year old.
The bottom half has the exact opposite black square with a small white dot in the middle representing how much a 20 year old THINKS they know and understand about life.
Yeah dude.....by twenty you have it all figured out and by 40 you've forgotten it all.
I'm guessing your 19.
i might just copy and paste this thread to make my poster!

OK...18 with decent Google skills.
Ok one more

When you meet someone better than yourself, turn your thoughts to becoming his equal. When you meet someone not as good as you are, look within and examine your own self. (Confucius)
Good advice for every 20 year old out there.....in a few years you can follow it too.
Wisdom comes with age my friend....I know I'm much wiser today than when I was 20.....anyone over 30 who tells you different is a liar.
But feel free to continue proving my point.
Shame you failed to understand it though.
Yes, your point, young = dumb, old = wise. Well call me Sonny, what a revelation.
Waxbandit do you have enough inspiration for your project yet?
MOke, why you had to foul up my hood with your weak ass tag style?
b/w if you're going to hang upside down off a bridge, at least remember to put the M the right way up
So maybe theres something to look into.. the artwork/lp has been re released in some kind of 'directors' cut/remastered' package. But more intersting is the fact that that album is now a 20 year old..... ;-)

How old where the Beasties when they made it, they had to be around the 20 year old mark....methinks...

24's my age, 22's my gauge.
Prince released this just before his 20th birthday.
He was 20 when he did this?
What a great album.
for those that may have wondered how it turned out
the whole thread
abstracted
based on the colours of the first ATCQ lp
many thanks guys

I think this is what R. Kelly told Aaliyah to tell her parents upon learning that he had turned their daughter out at the tender age of 16.
Was this done in Processing?
i just copied and pasted the full text
changed each persons post to a colour corresponding to the ATQC LP
and then copied and pasted at random, a lot
it works real nice as a 60x80cm poster - you can read each line when you get close but from distance it just looks real abstract
i've got about 20 variations where i've used the align tool a lot, but my tutor advised me to enter this one
peace
