Hy together,
in order to a small discussion of the upcoming FC10 Artwork on the
marketing-list I had some ideas I would like to give here for further
comments.
I has the thought if we can't think a bit bigger for FC10?! This is the
10th Version of an Operatingsystem. 10th Anniversery. We have a one and
THEN the null behind. We have decades going forward...
So just some thoughts/ideas we could have:
- collect some/all the (unpublished) Artwork of the years and put them
together or remaster some of "the old" ideas, made them retro or so.
This seems an interesting idea and has been proposed at least 3 other
times. However, it seems no one has been interested in it enough to
follow through. Maybe you could be the person to make this happen?
- ask VIP's (let your imagination flow who this could be...) make some
Artwork. I don't mean that as a blow against the art-team or so (Nicu
Buculei mentioned such a thing) but it CAN be a way to have lets say
unusual stuff in here.
I think we have more than enough ideas right now for F10 that we don't
need to go out and ask for more to add more to the pool.
an (maybe bad) example: let Stallman scribble the fedora Logo and work
that out or ask people like Doc Baumann, Linus Torwalds, Mark
Shuttleworth or such guys.
I don't know if Mark Shuttleworth would be all that interested in
contributing to Fedora. Just a hunch. :-p
What is the meaning behind doing this? How does it relate to Fedora? It
seems to be promoting celebrity over expertise, no? Technical people
doing art = people doing something outside of their expertise? What does
that say about Fedora? Is celebrity really valued in Fedora?
maybe we can work out lets say 12 different VIP Pics or scribbles for
that.
- put in some photos as backgrounds, maybe from big events or meetings...
there are few Pictures as backgrounds, but many people have some. There
are many ways to put in lets say "faces of fedora" in a smooth way...
Do you have any pictures to suggest?
- best of artwork-artwork: any Artworker give one bit of his work to
another and let him or her work that out, let your minds flow,
cooperate, work out things together, etc.
This is what our art process involves right now. :)
