When I was younger, I used to draw little funny pictures to make my friends and classmates laugh. I would keep a drawing and show it to as many people as I could, because I liked the feedback. Since then, digital media has evolved and has become a large part of life. Also, since then, I've learned to write with more intelligence. I am now able to do more than just simply scribble a funny picture or barely-legible words on a sheet of loose-leaf paper. Not only that; I am also able to show my funny creations to the world -- anytime, anywhere.
I remember when Xanga.com was a popular blog host. I would post anything I thought was funny that crossed my mind while I was daydreaming. I daydream a lot. It's really fun. I forget almost all the stuff I daydream about as soon as I realize I'm daydreaming, though. But for the stuff I do remember, I'd post it on my Xanga blog through my writing, images and animations I create and/or edit, photographs and videos. The feedback was great. Textual, abbreviated laughters are great.
I love to laugh, and I love to make other people laugh. It's something anyone and everyone can enjoy. It's pretty much my motivation as a media artist. I believe that if something looks beautiful, interesting or abstract, a memory of it would only give someone a little smile. A memory of something funny, however, would make someone laugh and then turn red and embarrassingly tell the stranger next to them that they just remembered something funny, but the stranger wouldn't care because he/she already thinks that person is weird.
I hope I can make people laugh through my work. I believe that no matter how serious a topic might seem, I can add humor to it.
