"Miles Plays Miles" ( Inks on 12" X 24" cold press illustration board ) per the Future-Primitif Rhythmic Zone was done as an album cover for the legendary jazz icon Miles Davis in 1975 by Prof. Onli. He & Miles could reach positive business terms so Onli refused to allow Miles to use it. It is an early masterwork of Rhythmism. During that time Onli was gigging as a major market illustrator.

Prof. Onli is a rare visual thinker who is credited with launching two vital arts movements. One being the over-arching theme of Rhythmistic visual art and the other being the growing Black Age of Comics Movement in the graphic novels industry. The first being universal. The latter flies in the face of the so called "post-Black" efforts to limit the power of culture, creativity and commerce.
