View Full Version : WEEKLY EVENT: Alarm
MLE
Jan 7th, 2008, 03:26 AM
This week's event topic is: ALARM
Feel free to take any interpretation of this word as you please. This is art shit, so please try to keep it to artistic forms, though since there are no events like this for the music forum, I'm accepting music as well.
Artists of all levels are welcome in these events! Feel free to draw, paint, digitally create, photomanip (don't use copyrighted images please), or otherwise artistically create your interpretation of the topic!
Topics will typically start every Sunday night, as long as I am near a computer. There's no image hosting on the site, so please use something like Photobucket, or hopefully something with more longevity.
IF THERE IS NUDITY, ONLY POST THE LINK, AND TAG THE LINK AS NSFW.
Be creative, and let yourself have fun!

That's work-safe, thanks for being careful! -♥MLE
Technical details: two hours of furious ink-sketching at work (slow day) and another two or three hours of furious scanning and redoing at home on photoshop CS2.

I'm going to have to do some soul searching for this theme.
Sometime I wish I could go back to doing drug induced art. Now I have to rely on creativity :\

and OMG mew, that will be my alarm clock for my phone now. You're totally allowed here even if music forum gets the hint and starts doing cool things. You should branch out and try to do some drawing as well if you feel like it.

I think the music forum already found out about our shenanigans, they already have a music video contest going!

It's for finding already created ones on youtube, not creating it yourself, as mew has done ;o

I wouldn't mind longer. It's really up to you wether it has the effect you want to get the theme across.

I agree with Tadao! I like it as is, but it could have been longer as well! I hope you'll participate next week! We'll have an AWESOME theme!

Self-Deprecation:
I dislike the lack of effort I put into this, and there are so many points that I want to now go back and redo that it would basically be starting over. >:
Of course, doing anything at all is more effort than I have expended in far too long. :(
So yeah, now other people that may be hesitant over posting can feel secure that they are not the baseline. ;)
Of course, anyone that wants to put in less effort & talent than me would sure make me feel better, except they should be ashamed of themselves for letting down MLE.
Not being able to let 'the art' talk for itself:
The idea is...
I'm both asleep and awake. I cannot allow myself to relax, so a part of me is always watching my watch so I know when to wake, & the window, in case a million unfounded fears are waiting for me to drop my guard before they attack. When I rouse myself I'll be my own Alarm clock. My anxiety has me Alarmed.

Pub, I love the conceptual effort especially, sugar. You put a good deal of thought into it and it really does show to me!
Mew, I love sloths <3 I would love if that became a theme of yours, honey.

Hehe, I'm trying to think about what Alarm means to me, but it really doesn't effect my life anymore. It will come to me soon. Hopefully I'll have a fevered dream about it.

I agree with tadao! I really liked the entry! I didn't expect to get more than one musical entry (mew asked if he could join in), but i'm glad I did! I think i'll continue to let musical entries even if the music forum starts this sort of stuff!

mew, Mattjack, i bow to you.
and MLE, we really need a thread for self-made music here.

Jan 8th, 2008, 11:14 PM
That belongs in the Music forum, Zako, but I do agree that they need to start a thread for themselves so we can hear more!

To be honest, we could start a contest/event thread in the music forum, but there would only be a handful of us that would even bother with it.
Couldn't we just get a free pass with these weekly contests since there are only, idk, 2 of us so far? This is a cool thread and I would like to participate with yall, even though it isn't illustrations or anything. If I could draw well, I'd do it, but I can't draw a square if my life depended on it :(

Yeah, but see nobody gives a dick about that thread. It is more less a, "Hey look what I did some time ago." I like the idea of having some random idea/topic/word put up every week and being able to use my imagination to write something to that. It is actually kind of fun.
All I'm saying MLE is, don't give Mew and I the boot on the weekly contests :(

I think everything got all confused.
As far as I can tell MLE has no problem with music being in the events.
She however does not want to have music based events in Art Shit.
So I think we all agree here.

i think i have some old junk which i did using Acid (a software, not something to make you HIGH) i think i'll try to locate it at my old desktop and post it somewhere

Tadao has it right! In the event threads, I have no problem with it, because there's nothing like these in the Music forum. I would just want to keep it in the weekly events! I'm totally fine with you guys being in here!
