Ping-pong doodles?

I’m not sure how Antarctica will end up.

All depends on what goes on in the rest of the world in the future, and the people in it, and it might even depend on whats happening in our solar system.

I wonder if you or I could start a little flash sketch of nothing in particular sometime, and do just 10 or 20 frames, then send it off to the other person, then back and forth again and again adding 10 or 20 more frames each, leaving off from what the last frame of the other person’s bit was – what do you think we’d end up with? A mess, or something cool?

The tea cup got me thinking.

Maybe your pieces could be based on your antarctic travels, and my pieces based on whatever your pieces bring to mind. As I don’t have antarctic experiences of my own, but I have an imagination. Of sorts.

Take care,

Been thinking Bron,

Here’s what I’d love to do:

Play animation pingong with you to extend Balancing Time:

If our aim is to connect people with the changes happening in Antarctica – within the bounds of our knowledge – then images and
feelings about these will inevitably come out in our improvised ‘dance’.

We will bounce ideas and feeling off each other, and whoever else wants to play.

But we can begin.

What do you think?

Attached is the .fla file for Balancing Time as it stands today.

Sounds very do-able! And I think whatever it turns out to be it will definitely belong. Just reading your journal connects me with Antarctica – I don’t hear much about the place otherwise. Thoughts of Antarctica have created the existing animation so anything that is spurred on by it will surely be linked to the changes in Antarctica.

We don’t know how this animation will end up – and I’m not sure how Antarctica will end up.

All depends on what goes on in the rest of the world in the future, and the people in it, and it might even depend on whats happening in our solar system.

If it changes before the weekend just send the FLA again, not sure if i will have time tonight to do anything to it, but will look over the file.

Cheers,

Hi again Bron,

It sounds like you have connected with the idea I’m attempting perfectly.

Do you mind if I include what we’ve just written on the site, here?

I like the immediacy of this on-line work, and thinking.

Cheers,

Lisa

Sure Lisa no problem – pop it up 🙂
