I admit to having been skeptical about an image based “review.” I’m still not sure it’s “critical,” but it’s definitely interesting and allows the “reader” to follow the connections you made. I really like it and want to see more.
Thanks. It’s definitely evolving and I’m curious to see how critical we can make it…and where else it can go!
Uhm… and no comment on the obvious visual connection to Joan Mitchell? Seriously? You can get a link to Keith Haring… but not Joan Mitchell?
Funny thing you mentioned that, Den. I did look for a good Joan Mitchell but couldn’t find the perfect one. What I’m finding curious about this format is that the visual associations have to be more obvious and not as much based on feel or mood. I totally saw the Mitchell association but couldn’t find the right one!
I thought a little bit of this basquiat car crash painting: http://www.christies.com/lotfinderimages/d50740/d5074081l.jpg
Which then got me thinking that it’d be interesting to have easy ways for people to add their own images to the ‘reviews’
Anyhoo, cheers. 🙂
I like that…I guess people can do it in the comments here but you’re right. There must be a better way. I’ll chew on that.
There needs to be a way for the masses to respond as well. Maybe a twitter tagging system for these images. Or a more ad-hoc, like developing a hashtag coding system ie “#openart” to trend these innovative models… will think a little harder. Awesome test Hrag! more!
