I'm So Glad I Jumped Off Of Twitter And Joined This Site Instead.

In case you missed it, here’s a #TutorialTuesday someone requested on Twitter to go with last week’s process video on how to create a perspective grid from a photo (from Tomomi Sato) which you can use for studies, drawings, paintings, etc. Hope this helps with drawing/painting in perspective!!

I saw the fnaf movie.

It was okay.

It's far from my favorite movie of the year, but it was fun. I think they should've cut a few scenes and done another pass on the script.

Rebloging my vocaloid art and adding the miku tag to test something.

since twitter is circling the drain again, guess i'll start porting over bookmarks

Turned today’s study into a messy little guide!

Ethics Town is a kafkaesque nightmare of a podcast. I love it.

Binged the whole first season in one sitting.

I called one of the twists around episode 4, which honestly made the slowly growing dread of the situation that much worse.

The vibe of the whole podcast is less pure terror and more....concern. Like I know something is wrong here but I can't pin point what exactly.

The ending of season one was a gut punch, even if it confused me a little.

From poking around on Tumblr, it looks like season 2 might be starting soon? I'm seriously looking forward to that. I have a lot of questions.

I also finished The Magnus Archives and what has been released of The Magnus Protocol so far. Tmagp apparently is also going off of hiatus today, which was not something I knew before I started writing this post.

I've never thought of myself as a podcast person, but I might be after this month.

"I hear humming...buzzing...humming..."

Inspired by the song Entomologists by GHOST

I love how almost every single major character in The Magnus Protocol is giving off death flags.

Sam? He's looking into things he shouldn't be while refusing to believe Gwen and Alice. That's gonna bite him in the ass eventually.

Alice? Until recently, she's been covering her eyes and hoping everything will be fine. Hopefully, it isn't too late for her.

Gwen? She's too proud to let go of a job that has almost killed her. She can't keep getting lucky.

Celia? She knows too much. That fact alone puts a target on her back.

Colin? Haven't heard from him in a while. There is literally someone on this website counting how many episodes he's survived.

Freaking Teddy? The guy who left the hell hole that is the Office of Incident Assessment and Response in episode one? He keeps coming around the office because he mysteriously can not find a job since the one waiting for him after OIAR fired him almost immediately.

Everyone besides Lena feels like their one wrong move from dying.

Love this post. I've only seen two games try the TV show route (Find Love Or Die Trying and.....the other one which isn't worth mentioning) but I really hope more come out.

Also the idea of a slightly morally grey psychological experiment where at the beginning, the participants are told: "you will be lied to and deceived" is such a good set up for a vn.

Immediately, I thought of an isolation experiment where a group of people with extremely diverse backgrounds are forced to live together for an extended amount of time only for things to go south quickly and the people in the "experiment" to lose touch with the people back at home base. They don't know if this is all part of the experiment or it something actually going wrong and they have no way of contacting or getting to the outside.

"Could YTTD be a real psych experiment?”

I always think of what would happen if studies like Stanford and Milgram never happened. We’d have a lot less rules on what can be a Psychology Experiment and what can’t be. Also, we’d lack a lot of important information we know now. Or like if Phineas Gage never worked with railroads. We would never know about different lobes,, however What I thought about most, is, could games like Danganronpa or Your Turn To Die reallllllyy become a real life thing? Well, illegally of course, anything can be done illegally, but legally, potentially.  The laws on psychological experiments is that  “Ethical Guidelines for Research With Human Subjects Participation Must Be Voluntary. Researchers Must Obtain Informed Consent. Researchers Must Maintain Participant Confidentiality.” So, basically, everyone involved must of consented legally, and there must be proof of consent (ex, signed form), researched must keep confidentiality, eg, not using this outside of agreed terms. I think there is also an other rule of full knowledge on what will happen or say “you may be deceived in the test” to avoid the Milgram hack, (using actors to feign death). Which would mean, you cannot legally do a death game in a psych experiment, because you cannot actually kill people, and if you must be clear and transparent about actors, well.. how will you get the reaction to death if there is none? However,, there is a way around that. However you may not be able to do a study on real people in a real setting. You can make a tv show.  See TV shows don’t follow these rules, you can recreate unethical studies like Milgram and Stanford legally if it’s a TV show. Which is horrifying to know but for sake of argument. Great for crazy people who want to make a killing game! Of course you cannot actually kill people, but you could hire actors alongside your players to fake being murdered, you could even lie and say the tv show was fake. Aslong as you make them consent to being in the tv show, anything goes really… So who wants to get a high school girl a button to save her friend..??
