TTTN: Art of Art
Prologue
Another revolution brought about by the connection of many disparate computers -- and thus people -- has been the creation of new styles of art exclusive to computers. Secondly, I do not claim nor am I the author of the examples used within.
The Art By The "Spiders" In The 'Web
What new ways of communicating thought/emotion am I referring to? For starters: oekaki, CG, webcomic (discussed in previous post), and...[see comments!]
Oekaki: A Japanese term for the rough online drawings, typically in the style of anime -- or Japanese *shudder* cartoons. (The word cartoon does not even begin to capture the essence of anime, but there's no other word to use...) Not rough as to be off-putting, but definitely not the smoothness of CG. Oekaki can also be distinguished by their unique color tones and composition. Here are examples one, two and three from BlackCat.
CG: Stands for computer-generated graphics. Distinguishable by its abnormal/inhuman perfection and smoothness of colors, lines, tones and shading. The movies of the Lord of the Rings trilogy used CG, along with Episodes One and Two of the Star Wars saga. Here are two examples of CG: Escape Nidhogg Island (!! large file !!) and Christmas Wishes.
---------------------------------------------------
I was feeling very good that I would have this done before the midnight deadline. I had three-quarters of the post written at 11:45 PM. Unfortunately, the computer was conspiring against me. It crashed three times while I was typing up the post. However, the problem is now (sorta) fixed. And I can't remember a third of what I was trying to type because I am tired. Very sorry for you the reader.
Tomorrow's topic will be Entertainment-->Music.
