Suggestions for Spawning Inspiration

Hey all. I've been wondering for a while if anyone else seems to get "artist's block" or if it's just me. What types of things do you do to get yourself through it? I'm especially looking for some of you "professionals" to reply to this since I can only imagine that it's pretty important in your line of work that you stay inspired.

Thanks in advance!

A Project Proposal

A Project Proposal

 

For those of you that have no special plans for this Summer, like saving the planet or curing cancer, here is an alternative idea.

 

The Neverwurzorwillbies

A Modern Ancient Civilization

 

I would like to embark on a team project this Summer to create/recreate the modern/ancient lost or never found civilization of the Neverwurzorwillbies. This culture never existed nor will it, but I don’t want to let that stop us from finding and documenting all of the facts about them. If you are interested in helping in this project, please read on.

 

The Neverwurzorwillbies:

They are or were an ancient modern tribe/civilization that left us many clues about their existence but no concrete information about much of anything. We have no idea of where they came from or why they disappeared.

 

The Project:

We will create all of the archeological evidence of this culture, including the artifacts, maps, religion(s), customs, habitat etc.

 

We will “discover”* the objects that they left and interpret their meaning to enable us to get an understanding of their culture. These objects will give us the needed clues to piece together a culture that has, until now, gone totally unnoticed.

 

For this project we will need:

Dreamers

Story Tellers

3D modelers

Photoshop Gods

Artists of all kinds

Cartographers

Linguists

Rune readers

Nuclear Physicists

Liars (no politicians please, we do have some standards)

Geologists

Cosmologists and Cosmotologists (practically the same thing)

Anthropologists

Archeologists

Web Designers

Psychologists and probably a psychotherapist or two

And of course, one Woodchuck

 

If you or anyone you know or anyone you think you know is interested, please have them contact me, I am considering this as either a giant independent study project or actually as a class.

 

 

* “discover” may include photoshop compositing, 3D modeling, or other means of outright fabricating a document of fact that may not in fact be so factual.
