Hmm?
After our class discussion I took into consideration some of the things that the other students said and I found myself being a lot more open to the idea of different forms of literature or the different ways that they can be accessed. So before that talk I would have probably said no, this is not composition, this is just somebody playing around with pictures and passing it off as a story. A part of me is thinking that the goal of this website was to create a place online where an author could combine graphics with their story in a way that would have more of a an impact on the reader then to just have it written out with a few pics slapped on the bottom. I definitely do respect the artistic value. Im an artist myself (im a little rusty right now but i am!) so I can appreciate the value of trying to relay a message to others especially in such a uniqe way. I also love to right so I like that they attempt to combine the two with technology since it is obviously such a huge and growing part of our culture. When I think of composing I think simply "creating". That doesnt have to be strictly with pen or pencil because when we think about it we compose in a hundred different ways on a daily basis event though we dont notice. For example I consider putting an outfit together composing because through our choice of what we wear we are expressing to the world who we are as a person even though its not blatant writing.I really do like the creativity of this website and if our class where to tweak it to our own personal styles I feel we could really express ourselves in a whole other light.
