Comics

As a kid, I was told that it was not good to read comics. All the same, I like to read, and I read whatever has text in it: books, magazines, newspapers, feeds, subtitles (when watching a movie in Russian of Japanese 🙂 ) as well as comics. Why not.

I’m not afraid for the good old treeware version of books, but I see no harm in reading digital version either. With comics I prefer reading it on the web: comics are relatively expensive and a too easy read to justify the purchase. So, what’s on my comics-blogroll?

Now I have the ComicRack eComic reader; “the ITunes for eComics”. Not that I ever use ITunes – I hate it, there are much better solutions for playing my media. Now I need more comics:

  • The Aesthetics and Beauty of Knowledge

    Shih was the opposite of facts and raw information; shih was the elegance of knowledge, the insight and skill to organize knowledge into meaningful patterns. As an artist chooses colours or light to make her pictures, a master of shih chooses textures of knowledge – various ideas, myths, abstractions, and theories – to create a way of seeing the world. The aesthetics and beauty of knowledge – this was shih.

    – David Zindell, The Broken God, 1993

  • Geek Attitude

    The attitude thing is about flexibility, portability, creativity, sociability and jamming (ran out of suitable “ity” words!). It’s about improvising – in the practical and musical senses of the word; not getting tangled in boundaries and the “right” way to do things.
    Definitely the only way to travel.
