There are lots of creative toys to play around with on the web; the image manipulation application at Lunapic is one of them. The image above was created using this and Comic Life 3.

I made this next strip on the Make Believe Comix site.

The point I’m trying get at in the strip is that the massive increase in digital connectivity that we are experiencing now is not going to turn us into the Borg but it may contribute to emergence of a consciously shared global consciousness.

Playing about with images and text can help make a point and it’s fun though sometimes I wonder if it isn’t just a waste of time. But then, sometimes, I think there is so little time and I wonder if there is anything that I might do that is not a waste of that time. The following page from Existential Comics illustrates how the comic form can encapsulate some deep thoughts and contrasts two responses to realisation of the impermanent nature of the self.
