Cutesy art idea of the day
Okay, here's a cute art idea for you: Framed airport security x-rays. Have you seen them? they tend to be pretty colorful, and on a white background. These days, stark white and hypercolor are very trendy. And the kids love irony (don't get all irony-police on me, please). There are many possibilities with this one. It could be a very long strip with items that indicate a certain strange group was passing through together, or just one certain kind of person like maybe a vampire slayer, excorcist, furry, techie--whatever.
I've got a million marketable ideas. How come some people actually make them happen? Do they already have the right tools at their disposal, or know the people who do, or do they pursue the necessary resources? I suspect it is often a mix, and if I find ideas I care about enough to pursue the means of production, I will pursue them. Maybe once I've produced a few I will draw the attention of the appropriate people until I can make a lot of them happen. It matters little to me, though, whether I use these ideas or someone else does. For the most part, they answer the wrong questions, such as What are people willing to pay for? or How can I show everyone I'm clever?
