- 00:26 @ atrinza @AmaliaTd I am down for cookies. #
- 00:28 Verdict: Black Keys = awesome. Must explore further. #
- 11:28 @ RoniGriffin Everything I write is so dialogue-heavy that it almost feels weird to enter a blogfest for that. #
- 11:32 @ matthewdyer Tell me if you think I'm getting better on the drums... #
- 12:05 Newspaper is dead. Attend his funeral: newspaperfuneral.tumblr.com/ #performanceart Please RT and add your own comments to the blog. #
- 12:31 Be part of art. Attend Newspaper's funeral: newspaperfuneral.tumblr.com/ #performanceart Please RT and comment! #
- 12:39 @ asandiford Pass it around! The more people involved, the better! #
- 12:43 @ asandiford It's actually ok because it shows how crappy the internet is compared to newspapers, lol #
- 12:46 @ desktophippie I certainly wasn't. Share your stories on the blog! People are trolling it right now so some perspective would be nice. :-) #
- 12:49 @ asandiford Very true! Without gatekeepers, you get, well, YouTube level comments I guess... Even SE++ has mods to keep things under control #
- 12:51 @ asandiford Totally! Which, like I said, is fine for the purposes of the project, but a bit more signal would be nice. #
- 12:54 @ desktophippie No, it's a performance art project my sister-in-law is doing. Trolling is fine, but a better signal-to-noise ratio would rock #
- 13:06 How does Newspaper's death affect you? Talk about it: newspaperfuneral.tumblr.com/ #performanceart Please RT and comment! #
- 13:27 This made me chuckle: hyperboleandahalf.blogspot.com/2010/04/alot-is-better-than-you-at-everything.html #
- 13:37 @ cwunch That view would basically mean that abstract art isn't art... O_o #
- 13:38 @ cwunch or performance art, I guess? Regardless, inane statement #
- 14:01 @ cwunch Ah yes I see, but given that the interaction in a game is still controlled to a point, that still seems to fall apart #
- 15:06 @ asandiford Eh, Shakespeare stole from stuff, too, no biggie. #
- 16:09 @ LitChat My first thought is always Shakespeare... stuff like Hamlet or A Midsummer Night's Dream, with their play within a play. #litchat #
- 16:18 @ LitChat The Season of Passage by Christopher Pike has a dual narrative that parallels the main plot and a writer writing a novel #litchat #
- 16:24 @ LitChat There's also The Body by Stephen King, a short story that became the movie Stand By Me and features the graphic vomit tale #litchat #
- 16:25 @ danish_novelist I think there is a distinction between something being challenging to interpret and being completely obtuse #litchat #
- 16:30 @ MsMartha Some readers are certainly more experienced and skillful than others. Depends on the intended audience. #litchat #
- 16:32 @ agnieszkasshoes Murakami is particularly challenging if only because he likes to use unreliable narrators. #litchat #
- 16:35 @ MsMartha You never know who will read, but I think you can still write for a particular group if you so desire. #litchat #
- 16:37 @ tracy_seeley One advantage is in drawing out themes through the use of juxtaposition. Compare/contrast with characters and events. #litchat #
- 16:38 @ LitChat Another example would be Watchmen by Alan Moore, in which he embeds a comic book as read by a minor character. #litchat #
- 16:40 @ MsMartha Genre can be included as well. Something for genre readers will be different than something for the general pubilc. #litchat #
- 16:43 @ LitChat I would say yes. Back story retells past events, story within story is often unrelated except thematically. #litchat #
- 16:44 @ LitChat Back story may be a subcategory of story within a story? #litchat #
- 16:47 @ MsMartha I wonder, though, if readers have polar opposite reactions then the writer may not have refined something enough? #litchat #
- 16:48 @ LitChat I would not call a subplot a story within a story, I would call it a subplot. But that may be too limiting a definition. #litchat #
- 16:51 @ MsMartha I think there is much more leeway in the visual arts than in writing. #litchat #
- 16:51 @ MsMartha Abstraction can work very well in visual art, but is often the proverbial kiss of death in writing. #litchat #
- 16:52 @ agnieszkasshoes Good point! Just because something happened in past of a story doesn't exclude it from being its own story. #litchat #
- 16:54 @ IanB022 Excellent analogy. #litchat #
- 16:58 @ MsMartha I think filters may give shades of meaning but not drastically different interpretations of something carefully written. #litchat #
- 17:00 @ MsMartha Although one tough area is satire... some people totally miss the point of it. Still, there is usually a specific point. #litchat #
- 17:41 Long day at work. Time to head out to eat with the mum-in-law. Then... more Doctor Who when I should be writing? #
- 17:42 @ ChrisRivan Maybe buy the ones you really like? Or have you already bonded with the library ones by that point... #
- 17:44 @ ChrisRivan That is a sad story. :-( #
- 17:45 @ ChrisRivan That is like the plot to every avid reader's nightmares. #
- 21:04 Pan con lechon. So good. And now, Doctor Who. #
- 21:12 @ cguanche The food was from Sergio's. Do I win at the internets even more? #
- 22:40 @ SheriB626 I know what you mean #
