Day 5 of reposting Big Chudgus until he goes viral. While not Doing Numbers, there have been encouraging replies to this project—other people believe Big Chudgus can Do Numbers too. This has been heartening, and reinvigorated me from yesterday's slump.
It's prudent for me to remember that this is a marathon, not a sprint. My greatest issue has always been a lack of commitment and follow-through; I get enraptured with an idea, infuse it with a manic energy, and then move on too quickly. If Big Chudgus is going to be different, I have to learn to adapt.
It's time for me to start playing with variables. The core idea is self-evidently paradigm shifting, but I can't just assume that I nailed the execution and packaging. In this iteration, Big Chudgus is accompanied by large, bold impact text in the same simple black-and-white aesthetic that the original features. I don't daresay this improves upon the original, but I feel it could perhaps serve a different purpose—perhaps the casual observer while scrolling X, The Everything App, might not intuit the name of the character immediately. As a result, "tagging" him in this way could add to its viral potential.
This is a difficult balance to strike as an internet artist. I often tell my mentees that we must produce work for those on every stage of consciousness. The work should be able to be analyzed for days or weeks of course, to have essays written about, to provoke awe in the conscious observer. But the difficulty of this medium is in its flattening effect on art—it exists in this consciousness dimming vortex, presented alongside slop and ragebait and vagueposts. As a result, what Does Numbers must be able to appeal to those in this lowered, reactionary state of consciousness and ideally (if it is great art infused with great intent) snap the audience out of it with a moment of beauty. That is why I added impact text saying "BIG CHUDGUS."
We're not reinventing the wheel here. The core message remains, and as it stands the art is still a worthy addition to the Chungi canon. I hope you don't see this as me compromising my values in any way, but rather having the dedication to actualize what we all want to see—Big Chudgus Do Numbers.
