Wow...
I have to say, I'm really happy with our latest assignment, the one using collage and drawing to create some sort of sequential narrative about our magical interphase, hehe. I stuck with the earphones, and as an added fantastic touch, decided to make them "mood earphones". Basically, you wear them, and the earphones adjust to your mood, selecting music that suits you at a given moment in time. (Something I've always wished my earphones could do, because moments accentuated by music are so damn cool.) As an added feature, if you were to come across someone else wearing the very same kind of earphones, they would sort of interact, and merge the music/moods, to create a whole new interactive, interpersonal dimension to an otherwise random, pointless encounter. So that people would be less disconnected from each other when they "tune out" to listen to their tunes.. I suppose there would be problems in a huge city with tons of people, were they all to have the same phones... but let's pretend that since they can detect your mood, they could also detect which people you inherently show an interest in. Like... "chemistry-detecting earphones", hehe. (not necessarily romantic, mind you. Just generally "getting along vibes", if that explains it.)
Man, that would be so cool. I love this class.
Anyway... visually, I tried to use differing colors to express the mood on each character, and then blended the colors together to express the merge of atmosphere/music... And chose sort of themed collage pieces for each character. After they "merge", the mood becomes sort of lifted, and since they connected, I chose a less imposing, and more organic background, to illustrate how great it is to interact, even on a small level, with others. Anyway. ^_^ I liked this, it was really fun, and permitted me to explore a whole new way of drawing, and creating things visually. Honestly, I didn't think it would be so effective, but it turned out really interesting. I'm off to browse everyone else's, I can't wait to see what people came up with.

I really like the series. It is different from what I've seen by you on devART, but I dig the style.
It's that pink one, where for an instant the two people connect, then in the next image they go their separate ways. That's how things are.
