A bit of a clarification. This idea to me is an experiment in communications. There are images out there in the galleries that, "tell a story," to me. Or some just hint at a story. I find I want to know more when I see an image like that. Now the artist has already visually communicated something to us. But what if we add that something "more." It's like going at the "illustration" concept backwards. The image inspires what is written instead of what is written inspiring the image. I feel this would give many artists a better feel for the "illustration" value of their work. I would give writers a unique source of inspiration and practice in "writing to subject." Over all, I would like to see some sort of book come out of this. I know there is the talent in Renderosity to do a major collaborative, illustrated work.
