murfinator at March 3, 2006 7:48 AM
Nice! Love how some of the elements are carried along and it all really ties together at the end. great stuff!
slinkachu at March 3, 2006 7:59 AM
Especially rare is the five-word title. And it even works.
Phineas at March 3, 2006 8:47 AM
excellent work! outstanding! smiley face! A+!

Moons and dreams...very cohesive corpse. It evokes dreams I have when I haven't studied for a test and I haven't been to class for two weeks straight and I wonder, "should I just drop the course, maybe they won't notice, maybe they'll think it's an adminisrative mistake that I was signed up and not give me an "F." Then I find my locker and I can't remember the combination. My fingers keep flying around the combination lock, but nothing opens it. Numbers..numbers...numbers. The lunatic is in my head.
Ann at March 3, 2006 9:19 AM
Wonderful job fellow artists! How lucky for me to blend with such talent on the first corpse I tried. And commentary from Phineas to boot!
jakedrews at March 3, 2006 9:28 AM
Very nice!!! Love it!!

How sweet that Sweden is all wrapped up and in somebody's pocket(?).
Sein und Zeit at March 3, 2006 10:09 AM
Great title, too!

A real keeper. Goes in my screensaver folder with my other favorites.

Too cool!

the future of dreaming

This is a work of group-genius. Absolutely amazing. Jakedrews, that is an exceptional first panel. I'm working on solving the puzzle, but whenever I try to focus on it I get this underwhelming sense of agitation, as if three babies were screaming at me. That is truly awesome. And you're in very good company. I love Crucibelle's vague blueprints and rococo french curve/drawing template. And Ann's gifts are obviously endless. The computerized dream-loom is brilliantly conceived and realized.
Just out of curiosity, has a frame ever made it all the way around a corpse? This one is the closest I've seen.
Cicada at March 3, 2006 12:47 PM
Not bad, kid
Jim Drews at March 3, 2006 1:00 PM
A coincedence of genii!
So coherent, could've been done by one artist.
Marvelous work guys.
And yeah, what Jakedrews said...
And Cicada, et al - ditto.
Colin Vincent at March 3, 2006 3:14 PM
That's 'coinc'i'dence'... dimwit!
Wonderful flow-through of themes, number pad, notepad, blueprint/drawing instrument all manifest in the new DP3! - such a cute idea, so well done. And a 'lunatic' scheme! :^]]
CHD - the new Choose How Dreamer?
btw, the baby faces in jakedrews' piece, I didn't see till cicada said.
Brilliant work all round, but I believe Ann was also responsible for bringing my first panel to such an elegant and 'simple' conclusion.
Colin Vincent at March 3, 2006 3:46 PM
Just checked, and was actually, precisely, the Crucibelle and Ann combo!
What kind of coincidence is that, Jake?
Colin Vincent at March 3, 2006 3:53 PM
Now that is an awesome corpse!
cloud_eyora at March 3, 2006 3:55 PM
Wild coincidence! Anyway, I was tracking the corpse simmering and when I noticed that Crucibelle and Ann were the close-out contributers, I was especially eager to see the finished product. I look forward to further collaborations soon!
jakedrews at March 3, 2006 4:16 PM
Cicada - you rock - very complex offerings from you. I wish I were clever enough to include a puzzle in my offering. Maybe soon - what a challenge!
jakedrews at March 4, 2006 2:10 AM
I'd select "Keep Dreaming" too, if this was my dream.
Patrick Beverley at March 4, 2006 4:55 AM
Oh wow, thank you! And I didn't even do anything:) God, I love this place.
Cicada at March 4, 2006 8:13 AM
It's your vision, Cicada. At least that's what it is from my perspective.
Regardless of what my opinion is of any corpse; I always look forward to reading your commentary and insights on the various panels. Sometimes, what you have to say about a corpse is more interesting to me than the corpse itself.
Miroje at March 4, 2006 11:49 AM
The title is awesome. The corpse looks like the cover of a Sci-Fi paperback. I like it lots.
billporter at March 5, 2006 9:54 PM
WOW! I just noticed that Ann picked up on the dimples in the frame at the top, and she was not even given that in her 15 pixel slice. Coincidence? I think not!
murfinator at March 6, 2006 9:06 AM
I noticed that too, murf, as well as the color of my buttons and the color of "Princess Boo." And the other day I was surfing a site that
sold southwestern food that was located in Albuquerque, right as "City Confidential" on A&E came on and they were in what city? You guessed it, Albuquerque.

When did I miss this beauty?

An Exquisite Corpse is a collaborative experiment in the creation of visual art through the tapping of the collective unconscious...
