J'en profite pour créer un master thread des threads de threads de conférences...
Sérieusement, vous pourrez trouver les threads où je recense les livetweets et autres commentaires sur les colloques et conférences JV auxquelles j'assiste.
PUT ON ICE is a 25-page coloured pencil comic about hockey, fatherhood, and homosexuality set in 1980's Minneapolis. I've spent the past 3 months working on this, RTs are appreciated!
The PDF is also available for donations to Minneapolis Native charity MIGIZI ⬇️ 1/8
Oh wow... One of the dōjin disks I have has only Sailor Moon cover artwork, but with no identifying circle names or anything. I dumped it and investigated the contents for who made it, and found this! Neat! An American BSSM fan from 1992, selling (by proxy) at Comiket!
Finally, my favorite -for its simplicity, elegance, and emphasis of the visual nature of the action.
The bottom half of the character 音(sound) has been slightly altered to incorporate 目 (sight, eye), to create a neologism for “sign language.”
This 1st grader wins in my book!
I like this one because it is a bilingual visual pun - a 76yo entrant transformed the bottom half of the character 会 (meeting) into a “Z” to make...you guessed it, “web conference”
(This could be a greater branding triumph for @zoom_us than even Kleenex or Xerox)
I love this one from a 15yo entrant: the character 画 (picture, image) rendered 3-D and folded - to make the neologism for laptop/notebook computer! 😍 so clever.
Winner of 2020’s new kanji contest in Japan: the character 座 (seat), ingeniously redesigned as a neologism for “social distance.”
Note the two 人(person) radicals in the original 座are now positioned farther away from one another!
