visuwords.com - A visual dictionary → visuwords.com

A visual dictionary, with links between words. Very useful tool for exploring and building a concept
around a central notion.

Many creative professionals (i.e. graphic designers, art directors, advertisers etc.) use a similar method
(on a piece of paper) during the very first stages of their creative process when brainstorm on a given project.

A very well designed alternative that is available -but not for free- both in online and desktop versions is visualthesaurus.

“ …an unforgettable collection of all that mankind swore to forget, but which we have trapped in agonizing clarity to remember always. ”

Hm..You may find a lot of stuff in this site -and even more in the “parent” site- disturbing. Me too. But as with Encyclopaedia Dramatica there is a lot of interesting material here too, for e.g. brainstorming, design concept exploration and generating  genuine ideas. Check a few here: A B C

“ In lulz we trust ”

Well, if you want to have a more spherical view about anything, you can not rely only on wikipedia. You should have a look at the other -far- side too. Dramatica is a parody of an encyclopedia, or a satirical one. Nonetheless some articles have a so called “serious business” section, with interesting facts, about article’s topic. Maybe you think that the articles are written by dicks, jackasses or trolls and they may be. But gems (and parts of truth) can be found anywhere. Enjoy

(hint:try a search for “Germany”. Also, the bible section have some really interesting actual text passages)

Alternative (I didn’t explore it extensively, but it looks a little more “politically correct”)

Well, as most of inspiration, the idea -or to put it right, the image itself- came to me, out of the blue.

A summer noon on a deserted beach. I had just got out of the sea (out of the blue, literally), and i walked a few meters on the burning sand. I didn’t use the towel to wipe the water off me, but instead i stood still, spread-legged with my hands on top of my head, as if i was a captive of the sun, to let the sea breeze and the warmth of the close yellow star dry me out.

Ηλιόλουστες κατηφοριές, για τη θάλασσα

Sunny descending streets to the sea

και γλυκόπικρες επιστροφές.

and bittersweet returning routes.

Τα δάχτυλά μας πλέκαμε,

We ‘ve weaved our fingers together

κάτι ‘ξορκίζαμε θαρρώ.

as if we wanted something to be dispelled.

Στα μάτια μας φυλάγαμε,

We’ ve always had enshrined,

πάντα, δυό στάλες φώς,

two drops of light in our eyes,

Και όταν θέλαμε να καούμε

And whenever we  ached to be burned

σταυρώναμε το βλέμμα.

we stared each another.


.



.

We walked down that street. Early in the afternoon, a relatively hot post winter day. No one was around us, the city seemed abandoned. But a sweet breeze smelled like a spring of our childhood. We were walking hand by hand. We were descending to the sea. We were in love.

.

.

.

.

Later, we walked our way back, still hand by hand, on the same road. I loved you so much. It was summer in me. But although we were joking, laughing and making plans for a cosy evening at home, there was an undefinable sorrow around us during our return. Then, for a moment, we stared each other…A true moment of the very being, burnt as to the heart.

I kissed you, passionately. 

You said : “Σ’αγαπώ”
