Superwholock CROSSOVER:
Demon!SherlockI have to say, watching the animated gif explosion in internet culture, and in fan culture, is completely fascinating.
What’s going on here? Taking the original source, modifying it using the tools we have available, and making a metacritical statement about it, all in one uploadable and shareable image. Something so complicated, really, with a significant amount of meaning, in such a small, simple file.
And it’s kind of linked up with prompt culture too, the idea of little ideas dropped into the fandom pool. So this one, a visual depiction of Sherlock as a demon, his heightened emotion becoming visible on his face because of it. What’s going to happen with this? We’ve got this, this visual, it’s as if it happened. What happens next? Someone makes a vid? Someone writes a story? It could be anything. This is what it would look like, or this is what it could look like. All part of the great fandom dialogue we are constantly engaging in. It used to be just writing, art, and vids. It’s so much more than that now.
It’s powerful. I like it. I like how fandom adds layers of ideas and remixing and analysis onto cultural texts in any way possible, and in every way possible. It’s really very interesting.
Fandom is wonderful. Never stop.
#they think it’s all silly but it’s not #it’s actually a way to engage in a dialogue with a shared text #this is how we build things #creativity doesn’t just fit into one simple box
Oh… I just… I’ve been made very happy by these thinky thoughts. Thank you for the brain protein, Ivyblossom.
Yeeeees, these brainworkings, I like them!
^ Yep. ALL of this.
This set of images, explaining one of the top theories of The Survival, is really amazing.
OMFG! This is brilliant! Even if it’s not what they end up doing (somehow bring in the BeeGees or have his fall secretly cushioned by circus clowns, who knows! /sarcasm), this is still f’ing awesome!

It’s good to know I’m not alone in this… _(=_=)_
of course I do; how else am I going to go to sleep?
I’m not that creative. I just recreate scenes from the fan fiction I just read. HEH
Almost every night - that’s often how my ficcery gets started/keeps going. I sometimes quietly whisper their dialogue, too. Hee! I am obviously an adult, yes?
Not only do I do this now with fic, I’ve done this my whole life with various and sundry stories.
