A wonderful idea, an exquisite corpse comic made by some folks over at the TIGSource forums. They seem to want to make this annual, too. So, the first one is here already, and it's a great trip. Rather short, though.

Dream comics / by agj

I keep a dream diary. I'm utterly fascinated by dreams in general. It should come as no surprise, then, that I was ecstatic when I found out about Slow Wave, a webcomic of dreams. Highly recommended.

Bienvenido a The Ants Parade (Las Hormigas Desfilan), un breve trozo de la mente de los pocos que han colaborado por ahora, un cómic (más en nombre que otra cosa) para vertir ideas sin preocuparse mucho por su contexto, su calidad o su relevancia, y cuyo total es, o será en un futuro, más que la suma de sus partes.

He traducido la sección 'acerca de' al español, aunque todavía no recibe un link digno desde ningún menú. Lo que necesites saber sobre este proyecto está ahí, incluyendo cómo contribuir.

10:15: Restate my assumptions / by agj

If you put images in sequence, narrative emerges.

Narrative is subjective. It doesn't matter how clear the text is: we interpret words our own way, we fill the gaps with our imagination. Reading is a process of transforming text into meaning. We have no dictionaries for images, though, so they're bound to contain even more diverging meanings, depending on who you ask. We are also great pattern-finders, which you can check yourself by looking up to the clouds: see how many animals, faces, and things you can find where there are none. If you put unrelated pictures into a sequence, then meaning, patterns, narrative effortlessly emerge.

Launch! / by agj

The long awaited ascent to the sky of this rocket ship of fantasy and dreams! No one knows what awaits us at the great beyond, but I can assure you, crew, that there is a place out there where ants can roam free without the fear of being squashed to death by five-year-old humans.

As the rest of the site, this blog is a place for you, my friends, to discuss whatever comes to mind. I invite you to register (although it's not necessary), and post. And freaking send a comic.
