Pitchfork

As Beck aficionados and Pitchfork News freaks well know, Beck's latest opus, last year's The Information, came with snazzy do-it-yourself cover art.

More precisely, it came with a bunch of stickers and a blank grid, with the implication that you could design Beck's album cover any damn way you pleased, limited only by the illustrative imaginations of the 15+ artists at London-based Big Active who created the stickers. The hardest part, of course, was choosing which stickers to use and which to leave behind. Thankfully, for those who want it all, you'll soon get your chance.

Come May 1, LDN-based "online gallery" Product of God will begin selling limited edition prints of Big Active's Information artwork. We're talking a big ol' print that collects over 100 of the Information stickers, all conveniently arrayed on one visual plane.

Time truly is money with these prints, however, as they increase in price as more are snatched up-- and there are only 200 to begin with! Get your browsers revved up at 9 a.m. GMT (aka three in the morning in Chicago, four in New York) on May 1, as the prints go on sale with the initial price of £125 (aka $247.91, as of today). Did we mention all prints come signed by Beck himself?

With the release of this Beck print, Product of God springs to life. Check back there later this year for art from Big Active's Sanna Annukka (who did the lovely covers for Keane's Under the Iron Sea and its attendant singles), Kate Gibb (who's worked with Chemical Brothers and the Magic Numbers), and Dave Foldvari.

Oh, and those little Beck stickers won't stop there. From April 15-19, according to Beck's website, they star in an Information art exhibit at Tokyo's La Floret Museum.
