Inner Working Rants: Writers Edge

Honestly i had no idea what i wanted to be as a child when i grew up. At times i wanted to be a Paleontologist, still love the field. Other times i wanted to be a writer and write nothing but fantasy novels. I loved writing and i loved being able to express my stories my way without limitations. One absolute reason why i hate Haiku and poetry. Hate rhyming and hate limiting myself. One reason i was a bit more drawn to the artistic world and found my niche in 3D Artistry. I also have terrible grammar problems if anyone couldn't tell :P

I think the one thing i do like about writing more than the visual arts is even though you might have a picture in your hear about what you want to draw you can simply express the picture and have the mind of your audience draw it in theirs. Feels almost like brainwashing!!! Point is is that if i describe a man walking down a path that is mostly forested and then suddenly he sees monkeys flying through the branches. You may as well picture exactly that, but i didn't say what kind of monkeys, i didn't even say what kind of forest. It gives the audience the free will to create the artwork themselves. In otherwords, RECEPTION THEORY if you read any of my previous rants haha.

Inner Working Rants: Imagination and Exploration

Currently i was reading Guillvers Travels and noticed how strange the entire story is. Even when you read a summary of the book it raises an eyebrow. The idea of a man who leaves his responsibilities of home and family to travel the world, coming across stranger and stranger circumstances is quite fascinating. The situations he goes through hardly sounds like a actual place but more of a critique of the human condition. For example, the Fear of Death. Guillver comes along a community of mixed people. Some who die, and others that are immortal. This critique of how the immortals may be "immortal" but they are terribly unhappy and envy the people who can die. Giving reason why death physiologically is a must. Then the power struggles of the giant and small people show the insecurities of humankind. Being treated like monsters or dumb.
