Puzzle Project Bucharest 15-22 june 2008

~bantumista:iconbantumista: reports, 2d 2h ago
[link]
Following the works done last years by artists from Romania, Moldova, USA, the Netherlands, UK, Spain, Germany, Palestine, Israel, Croatia and Turkey, in 2008 we expect the unconventional gallery on the walls of the Motoare Terrace to be completed – as in a cultural puzzle – with 20 more projects to be done by our Romanian and foreign guests.

OBJECTIVES :

The project is a statement of experiments and artistic expression from different parts of the world. Each year’s theme determines the artists to create links between the imaginary and the real world while under a common source of inspiration.
Being a succesion of editions, the event provides for an annual happening where artists from different cultures meet and build together a puzzle whose mirror-image is given by the diversity of the visitors on the terrace. Artists’ presence add up to the already cosmopolitan atmosphere of the place.
Another aims are to bring together creativity from different areas, to prove during a week art’s power of making people cross boundaries and to show the world what globalization should be about.

Each of the people involved in the project will dedicate their work, their time during this special week, their exeperince to the visitors on the terrace “... with love”.

Romanian and foreign artists may apply for this year edition by accessing the above mentioned web page.

The Meaning of Shame

~vforvengeance:iconvforvengeance: reports, Dec 27, 2007
To show anger, One must bears the consequences. I know some of you out there are concern with my stand against FRANKAMUTHAFUCKAS. Thanks for asking but I'm not going to back down 'coz I'm fully aware of what kind of people I'm dealing with. You betcha sorry asses, FRANKAMUTHAFUCKAS...

From the dictionary, Shame is the consciousness or awareness of dishonor, disgrace, or condemnation. In other words, Shame means to draw profits without making contributions during good times, or without cultivating oneself after screwing up big time. All that is SHAMEFUL.

Same goes for FRANKAMUTHAFUCKAS who always took official linearts, gangraped it over and over again and FUCKING proud of it too. While amateurs who are struggling to pick up the skills of drawing mechs are not appreciated back in the FRANKEN community and were often looked down onto.
Just like yapping CHIHUAHUAS, they FRANKAMUTHAFUCKAS bragged about their talents without even the slightest skill for drawing a circle and took pride with delusional notions THAT they're equally skilled like the pros, so they feel like they've got dominances over other mecha artists because their FRANKEN travesties are SOOO GOOD. Now aren't those SHAMEFUL or what?

And yet, they FRANKAMUTHAFUCKAS run forums like petty STREET URCHINS, demanding SUBMISSIONS and TOTAL COMPLIANCES from registered members. By taking advantage over members' good natures and silence around, FRANKAMUTHAFUCKAS of course assume that their TRAVESTIES are PERFECTLY ACCEPTABLE in any ways. Even the PROS from the industry wouldn't mind at all. Until someone daring enough to stand up and criticise on their travesties, they hurl back flamming remarks and threaten with ban-slaps. Since this is their turf, NO ONE should EVER have anything against them. How SHAMEFUL...

So what will happens should if someone from the ANIME industry comments on their TRAVESTIES? Would they FRANKAMUTHAFUCKAS suddenly turn into RUNNING DOGS-which utter sweet words, showing ingratiating manners and overly humble? All because they wanted to be taken in by that SOMEONE from the industry...
Or when they faced with real people in real life, take me for example: Should if they ever face with me at any conventions, would they tend to bear hatred towards me while being superficially friendly?
SHAME, SHAME, SHAME...

Without learning to be ashamed of and correcting oneself for past mistakes, one will not gain trusts and recognitions from his/her peers. For those whose ignorances are beyond enlightenment, are always in denials of creating travesties by CHEATINGS and they're too dickheaded to admit it. All they want is to have FUN... Now FUN is an individualistic, narcissistic and selfish excuse because it only applied to ONE's satisfaction while ignoring others around him/her.

Examples:
-As for using my frankens as an example, all I've got to say is that those were each made for an original universe with its own original characters and technology. THANKS FOR THE PUBLICITY, I'm glad that I pissed you off enough that you chose to use my designs.
-As far as I've seen, yes, we frankeners are definetly MORE CREATIVE than you.
-You completly ignore the high level frankeners like Turinu, Draco Starcloud, and deathpony and focus on the bad ones.
-I would give them a lot of credit. If you bothered to give them a chance, you would to. As for not giving the original designers credit, isn't the most sincere form of flattery imitation?
-You call me a loser, but you're the one spending so much time on your crusade against frankeners.

Now ladies and gentlemens, does this particular person know the meaning of SHAME? Believe me, I'm getting a lot of LAUGHS these days eversince I started this expose' on FRANKEN TRAVESTIES.

To be recognised for your creditability and diligence, you must prove it by being earnest, hardworking and trustworthy among your peers. Ask yourself what is it you really got worthy of recognitions and engage in self-reflections to see if you do share the same desirable traits with the pros and idols. If your conducts are right, your peers will show their respects to you; if your conducts are wrong, you brought SHAME upon yourself.

SHAME ON YOU, FRANKAMUTHAFUCKAS!

IMO, using appropriate term to refer to a certain party is much more professional to be inserted in an article.

I would call it a shameful if they brag a bit too much about their ';professional' frankenings. Even worse if they ever use them for their own publications. But I wouldn't mind if they're just frankening for fun as in using them in RPGs. But it's just how they react to criticism is irrational and does not have to do anything with what they do best.

I doubt they'd ever be invited by anime industry. They're not even gaining profit other than praises do they? So that means the comment on 'anime industry' is invalid. the point of Frankenmech is to assemble mecha parts as how Frankenstein assembles human body parts. So posting original mecha there would be considered OOT.

it's just like doing Fanart, gender blender and crossovers. If Frankening is a shameful thing to do, then ripping/cropping off a picture coming from an animation or comic to be turned into an avatar or signature would fall under that category.

Although you have a point there, i find this article written in an immature way.

To Frankeners, if they ever read this; don't brag about your frankening. if you take it as a hobby then do as you like, but if you plan to be successful in entertainment industry then abandon frankening and make some effort to create your own ideas.
