Well, this was a sort of last minute thing. art fiends prompt #4.
Anonymous asked: Are nonmembers of the Art Fiends allowed to submit art related to the Art fiend prompts?
Absolutely; in fact, we strongly encourage it! The prompts allow the Artfiends to work towards interesting and often fun new approaches to artistic endeavours in hopes of sparking discussion and inspiration. They also allow other artists to get involved and join in on the collaborative effort!
I decided to accept the distortion challenge both visually and audibly!
Since Cats Milly stated she would never make a sympathetic emo song about Applejack, I figured I might as well just do it myself!
So I present to you a sympathetic emo Indie pop lo-fi fuzz folk song about Applejack!
Fun facts about the process of distortion:
1. All the instruments, except the accordion, are distorted someway. Even my voice woop!
2. As an experiment, I’ve only used acoustic guitars making this, recording bothy a clean and a distorted channel each time I played it, and balanced them to different sides. It worked better then I’d expected!
DISTORTION
A response to the Art Fiends prompt. It is not a positive term, and it is generally inferred as a degradation of the characteristics or even the nature of an object; but can an object be used to distort something greater? The most powerful distortion I face is that of my memories. I often find myself perusing my old mountain photography, caught in the grip of nostalgia.
Fiendly Prompt #4
Hey everyone, hope you all had a great summer vacation! With fall just around the corner, it’s about time for another prompt!
The theme for this prompt is distortion. While in most cases the degradation of a medium is avoided whenever possible, purposeful usage of distortion, either random or crafted, can yield unique and surprisingly appealing works of art! However, it is important to note that process of distortion does not solely pertain to digital outlets. Just as pixels can be bent and skewed, so too can physical and even linguistic media!
Be sure to check the #distortion tag on Tumblr if you’re looking for ideas and inspiration. Also, don’t forget to check out these cool links:

So! This is one of the fun early scenes to Les Gens de La Mer. Really, it’s the first scene after the opening tension is finally released, where the characters fall back into banter to try and define their relationships with one another through language. Balsar, who is the king’s representative, is escorting Lyssad, our shipwrecked-washed-ashore-byronic-hero, to come before the King to tell his story. It’s fun, and fairly simple once you get the hang of it.
The reason I bring this up is that I wrote this six years ago this november and I still think it’s better than almost anything I’ve written since - not perfect, but a perfect snapshot of who I was and who I may be in my best of times. Then again, there’s nothing saying we can’t be even better than we were before.
