Storytelling

I love storytelling, man.  It’s so much fun.  I love all the forms it comes in.

I especially love the way everyone can interpret art in their own way, or situations in their own way, or even static stories their own way in order to tell a different story each time — a story that speaks to them more than the one anyone else tells.

So I’m not sure exactly what to do for this project I’m working on.  I’m trying to create an image collage of sorts to allow for some interactive art where people can tell their own story by interpreting an image I put together.  Though one of my favorite things about art is social disruption (peaceful.)  So how do I do that?

No freaking idea.  But here are some basic images I’ve started appropriating so far.

So it’s not so much appropriating other net artists, but more appropriating the works of others as filtered through google searches for terms related to storytelling, then changing them in a way that makes me think of stories (the wispy outline) then allowing users to employ one of the greatest phenomenons the Internet has spawned: commenting, to tell their own story.

The dude abides.
