Seaside Born

I'm just a girl who wants to follow Christ the best she can. I also fall under the categories of artist, film maker, coastie, music enthusiast, explorer of many things. And always in need for a cup o' brown joy.

newyorker: The Video Game Art of Fumito Ueda “As video games have become more and more popular, the medium’s defenders have developed a misguided tendency to point to the ways that games are useful, practical, functional. I do not know if Ueda’s games will make you smarter, or improve your vision, or promote world peace. I very much doubt, in fact, that they will do any of those things. Emphasizing the ways that games are tools for instruction—whether intellectual, physical, or moral—is an unfortunate residue of their origins as children’s playthings. Abandoning it will be the sign, maybe the last one, that this new form of storytelling is all grown up.” - Chris Suellentrop on the video game art of Fumito Ueda Love this!
