A Change of Perspective

I was not expecting so much attention on my latest Flatland artwork, as I´m writting my biggest post so far it´s about to hit 400 notes.

Thank you to everyone for sharing my artwork, following me and thanks to everybody leaving comments on them, I truly appreciate what you have to say about my work!

So, I wanted to write a little about my personal relationship with this novel. Although small, it did help me create a point of reference for my growth over these years.

I knew about this novel since 2016, after the 2016 Bill Q&A mentions Edwin A. Abott. Of course my curiosity got the best of me and I decided to figure out this world. I ended up falling on a 4th dimension theory and Mathematics rabbit hole.

Since a lot of conversations surrounding the book where around theories on the 4th dimension, rather than giving political comentary on the book. As it´s rediscovery was made in the year 1920´s, one could imagine why that was the case. For the most part, due to Einstein´s main interest being how Edwin A. was able to somehow predict the 4th dimension´s existence.

Thanks to this, I didn´t take Flatland´s themes into consideration, and just read a few chapters out of order.

July 2024, The Book of Bill releases. Once again, there´s a reference to the novel in one of the pages. And for old times sake I decided to revisit Flatland. Curiously it´s when I got recommended the 2007 Flatland movie to no end, I eventually, after a long weekend of College work, decided to watch it as I animated.

After that, I decided this time I would finally give myself the time to finish the novel. With an older and more open mind I was able to finish the book and understand it´s themes; critiquing bigotry and seeing the world through a whole new perspective. Makes me wish little me finished the book instead of taking its message for granted, could’ve helped get over some mayor denial I had back then.

I believe things happen a certain way for a reason, maybe it was for the better that I didn’t finish that book back then, at least it gave me the opportunity to better appreciate it :^]c

I hope this community keeps on growing. And I hope to see more people create more content for this interesting world!

Do they have strong, sturdy shells?

No, they don't.

Do they have the first natural reaction to use themselves as a shield?

Yes, they do.

Now that I have seen your death, I no longer wish to live, except until I have taken revenge on the traitor who did this to you.

I love this moment after Nick sits where he just takes Charlie in (and takes in loving him, if his subsequent lip bite is anything to go by). Charlie's delight at it and at Nick is also fantastic.

Spoilers for Slay the Princess: Pristine Cut

(mainly just me rambling)

after seeing pretty much all the new content for the pristine cut update, i really think that the main overall change was the narrative being.... kinder to the princess, in a sense. we get to give the damsel her free will back. we get to sympathize with the fury, and earn the sympathy of the apotheosis. we get to see the princess' perspective in the cage route and 'the princess and the dragon' route. where, previously, there was either cruelty (from her or us) and an inevitably tragic end, there are now options to reach out to her.

and it really makes it more of a love story, in my opinion. violence has always been their language, but there are far more moments of gentleness now. there are ways to break the cycle of suffering
