140

The big breakthrough for the borderlines as an idea itself came to me while I was enjoying the - I must say - wonderful motion picture "Artist" a few days back. Nothing to be connected with the movie itself, although thinking back about it may seem as a subconscious trick using the borders of no sound at all, but it just struck me right there - what about a bit about the Internet? Haven't we done that in a while, now have we? So I went to get some cake, hopped on the next bus and started working on the idea.

 To meet the border itself in disguise of the little blue birdie seemed just perfect for the piece to be put out in it's true colors. Some may find this stating the technology and the seemingly limitless boundaries they provide, some might find this as me rambling about the infinite levels an idea can provide. It is what you perceive it to be. And there is no right or wrong way to understand any of the artworks I or anybody out there is producing. But my perception behind the easel of characters was to say that not only borders are dragging this society upwards, but to make people think of growth as it is. A few months back an art teacher told her class that the idea of framing millions of little kids into A4 pages and making them think "boxed" is to be considered outrageous and should be replaced immediately. Well, sure - a box is a widely known concept of being hidebound and making your work out of cliche's millions had used before you, but it is not being limitless that makes people creative. The border, the lining of a canvas or a page is the only thing giving matter to our work - just like death evaluating our lives every day. Without the end nothing is to be considered enjoyable or interesting at all. The borders are the ones making us think, because there is no better stimulus than to be put in any kind of limits. When you have to reason how to create something within those boundaries that can still be understood and haven't lost the original idea's weight is when creativity is being born. And nothing makes us think more than meeting limits twice in the same hundred and something spaces.



An idea can go miles of intelligence, but are you intelligent enough to press it into those 140 spaces?
