Exercise 2

Write a list of everything you've read or written or seen or heard in the last 24 hours.
- we were talking about Red Dwarf at work, I have just seen the first episode
- I played a ZOMBI game at evening yesterday
- I wrote many business mails at office

How many stories are contained within your list?

RedDwarf: story about Lister and his 3 mil year pause
ZOMBI: apocalyptic story with zombie topic

Is it art? There is not the right or wrong answer, right? For me the RedDwarf is art, especially art of specific humor which I love. The story in ZOMBI game is also interesting, and there are many games which have great story (The last of us), FireWatch is a game with great atmosphere, where you talk with a woman vie walkie talkie and you will never see her, you know only her voice. Those games can take you to specific places, make you sad, happy, take you on places in times you can not experience in real life.

How do you, personally, define a creative and artistic piece of writing?
I love to read a detective story. I love Sherlock Holmes. Last days I found out that inspector Wallander and other character from north countries are amazing. These stories keep my attention for hours, they are fresh, beautifully written. I can not define the artistic piece of writing but the Hazel's essay 'Creative Writing and New Media' showed me other style of writing, particularly the connection between text + sound + computer software. I like the interactivity given into a 'story'.
