Final Renders (2005 - 2007): From the last years of his life, less than a percentage of Jared Newby's graphic design has survived. Many were simply saved in Photoshop formats without ever being rendered into a standard. Without being rendered, they were never uploaded or backed up. This meant that all finished and unrendered works (as well as unfinished works) were lost along with each of Jared's three laptops. Every single design that has survived has been included in its original format on this very page. Clicking on any image will load the graphic in a new window at its original resolution (or up to the capacity of your screen / browser resolution).
1.33:1: The bulk of Jared Newby's designs were in the 1.33:1 aspect ratio. This is the original standard (often called "4:3"; or, "Four-Three") used in TV, MPEG video and with early computer screen resolutions. It is this latter that was the cause for Jared to adopt this format, as he could work on a design the size of his screen without need of navigating around it or zoom in and out. Even after changing over to laptops and to the widescreen format, his templates were all saved in this earlier format. Despite suggestions to modernize, he focused almost entirely on this aspect ratio for all of his later works. Below are all the surviving designs he created in the 1.33:1 aspect ratio:
Self-Rendering: Many of the photos Jared took of himself, or that were taken by others, were often subjected to dramatic transformations via Photoshop and various collected plug-ins. He picked up this addiction from the artist Aphex Twin, who served as an early and lasting idol for Jared. He posted these in MySpace albums and blogged them, deleting them once he was bored. Only the image he titled "I Am the Goffer King" survives from these. A modified version is now used for the album art on Epileptik Cerebral Reaktor's "The Human Design".
