*Hugs Kilala and gives a tasty smoothie*

@ Kilala ;
Pff. Don't you start now. XD -turns motionless after being poked by the staff of rituals- Why, lawl, good madam~ |
*Falls asleep in library*
I'm adding some content :D Enjoy! Also, Mixing Science and Magic: A Recipe for Disaster? 21 Ways To Eradicate Campiness From Science Fiction ...and The Electrification of Human Corpses I won't add these to the main Library because they are not factual enough...but I wanted to share something I am trying to look into... |
Ohh~ Awesome
-excited- :3 Yay for more content~ |
Lol
It is just more stuff... I need to branch out on some areas to make the Library more entertaining... |
How to eliminate Campiness from Science Fiction?
What's Campiness? o.0 You can do it, lawman. :3 |
Campiness = Cheese = things that are stupidly bad in plot (Straw characters based only as an extention of a wiki-defined viewpoint, plot points that would never make sense, even in wacky Wonderland, use of special effects and the like to mask poor plot, or something like several Deus Ex Machina's in one work. (Deus Ex Machina being the writer creating a random happening to save their main character from an issue/threat)
|
Ohh now I -vaguely- remember hearing that term used as such..
Hmm sounds like something interesting to read then I guess. XD |
Essentially:
I want to design/invent technologies that could help people and the planet (In addition to learning languages, cultures, skills, and mythologies from multiple people, drawing, programming, and storytelling) ...but I have developed an issue with mathematics and the like (a fear/dread)...and I have some issue focusing on one thing at a time. So, I thought I could research and design my ideas...for incorporation into a science fiction/science fantasy series. |
So you're planning to add to the Science Fiction/fantasy series?
Like, mod-wise, or other? |
As in, research, design, write story, insert design, and then figure out the medium (game, book, or what)
|
And...finally falling asleep
ZZZZZZzzzzzzz........ |
Awwh.
-giving lawman a queen sized bed and another lava lamp- Sleep well, Lawman. :3 |
*Waves*
Philosophical question of the day: Should "classic" literature be valued above modern literature of the same quality and non-plagiarized? |
*puts tomato on the poking stick*

Well, to clarify plagiarization: One of the greatest Epics of Rome, the Aeneid, "plagiarized" the Odyssey and the Iliad.
And several novels are connected/pay homage to other works - really bad ones instead try to steal from other works instead. I was not really thinking of fanfiction at all here... I like the Epic of Gilgamesh, Jules Verne, and Edgar Allen Poe...to the same degree I like Diana Pharaoh Francis, Naomi Novik, or Dave Freer. However, it just seems that sometimes things that are considered "cheesy" or "unrealistic" in modern works...are overlooked in earlier things because they are classical. Bad romance dialogue in modern things: laughed at or criticized Bad romance dialogue in Romeo and Juliet: Well, I laughed... Or, Law is just a crazy cook. *Waves spatula around* |
Eh. I guess you could argue that the 'Classic Literature' could be valued higher, as the ones who wrote them are no longer with us, and are unable to contribute anymore, making them more... 'rare' for lack of a better word.
However, in all honesty I don't know. x: |

Ohhhh. Homage/tribute I like. After all, there are only a limited number of stories and characters in the world. As for the cheesy and unrealistic, I think I cut the classic works some slack because I know people didn't know as much then, and they also had different ideas of what was funny or entertaining. So I kinda just view it as alien stuff from another world that I can't really tear apart with as much satisfaction as I can a modern book about people who give their son two bedrooms of his own and stuff their nephew in the cupboard under the stairs. Of course, for the most part, that cheesy old junk in the really old stories is about the only romance I can take without gagging. XD:p-raspberry: |
@Vince...
Huh... I would not think that would be a reason to praise the value of the content over another work...rather I would think that would be a "collector's" focus. Quote:
I guess...I don't think of writings (barring perhaps deconstructionist/dadaist works) as alien. Yes, culture and technology is different...but people/society still seems very much similar at the core through history to me. |
Hmm. So I'm seeing that the value of the content to the target audiance, and the collector's value of the content are seperated? o.o
|
Pretty much. Actually...that could be a good (the best) way to put it.
So, everyone doing okay? |
Whoo. XD Go vivi~
I'm doing okay. Just had dinner, debating on when to have dessert. x: How's the Lawman? :3 |
I wish I had more time to do things...
|
Ah. Yeah. Time is an enemy of us all. X:
You'll do it somehow, though, Lawman. -patpat- |
CHRONOS!!! YOU HEAR THAT!!! VINCENT SAYS I WILL GET YOU!!!!
(lol - Chronos = Titan of Time) |
Lolol. Somehow I can see you studying up to rip open the fabric of time and hunt down wherever Chronos is and strangle him saying 'STUPID CHRONOS! I. AM. THE LAW!'
|
|
Where and how do you keep finding all this stuff lmao. XP
|
Umm...I am getting better at searching for things, and have been listening to several things that give me a broad. basic knowledge of things (as well as what to look into in future games and the like)
|
Haha. Yeah so I see. Good to hear though Lawman. :'D
|
So, Vincent, what do you think the Library needs?
|
...you're asking ME... someone who hasn't read anything in like forever and everything goes in one ear and out the other if it's complex...
What your amazing Library needs? XD |
...Yes.
Just want to keep this place interesting for everyone >.> |
Uhm. XD Well that'll take me a minute then. xD
-sits on the floor- o-o |
*Sits and ponders as well*
