Inktober Day 19 - "Scorched" Dogs and especially corgis like to tapdance a lot when they're excited, and so i've wanted to draw one where one tapdances so hard that it creates sparks and scorches the dance-floor.

Those trying to get you down, let it serve as increasing your ki.

Growing up, I played plenty of diverse genres of video-games, naturally building itself up from kid-friendly games like Spyro and Ratchet & Clank, towards more mature themed games like Metal Gear Solid, Tekken, Uncharted and inFamous. My favourite of them all is Metal Gear Solid. I’ve always believed that video-games can achieve something truly unique that no other form of media can, creating all new mental chemistry when the player can affect what happens on the screen rather than passively taking it all in like in movies and music. Over time, as i’ve played more mature themed games, i’ve grown a natural growth in more complex themes, in for example psychology, morals, politics and artistic expression. Mature themed games like Uncharted, inFamous and Metal Gear Solid have influenced me in profound ways of appreciating and desiring deeper, more complex subjects and themes (i’m using that word a lot) for an even deeper sense of storytelling and how it can affect us as people in more humanitarian, existential and creative ways. I will quote Hideo Kojima on this, about my current, highest form of appreciation for video-games. “I’d rather be a David Lynch than a Spielberg” - Hideo Kojima, Gamers Today, 1999. I want to be purplexed rather than taking in a standard, mainstream Hollywood narrative. This is why I’m Extremely excited about Death Stranding. There are So many philosophical and existential themes to be read from each trailer that has been presented from its first teaser to the E3 2018 gameplay trailer and Kojima interviews, and it’s an experience i’m Dying to take in.
