Book Reviews of 100 Days Of Monsters (with DVD)
Book Review: A Monster of a Phenomenon
Summary: 5 Stars
Once upon a time, a control enthusiast with a pen drew himself a monster--and the rest is history.
You can test-flight this book at Bucher's site, www.dailymonster.com, where all 200 of the monsters he eventually released still live--going to their jobs, having their babies, reading and writing and dancing and taking over the world--doing all the things monsters do. I encourage you to do so, and then buy this book.
Someday someone you are talking to will rail against the web, talk about all the terrible things on it, all the bad people. Then you can point to 100 Days of Monsters, and you can say, "Things like THIS--people from all over the world sharing a creative moment, interacting to make something beautiful and funny and playful--how would you make something like THIS happen, if not for the internet?" And if not for, it goes without saying, Stefan G. Bucher and his band of authors.
I came to the game too late to be part of the book--but oh, it was a lovely thing to have my child come downstairs every morning and say, "Mom! Did you monster yet?"
What a wonderful time. I thank you, Stefan. You did good. You didn't just talk the talk, you walked the walk. You followed your heart, and it shows. :)
Summary of 100 Days Of Monsters (with DVD)
Designer and illustrator Stefan G. Bucher loves drawing monsters, so he filmed himself drawing an ink-blot monster every day for 100 days and posted the videos online. The result was an overwhelming response from all corners of the globe as fans submitted stories about the trials and triumphs of each unique monster. A companion DVD contains movies of each of the monsters being drawn, as well as additional monster stories. In addition, there is a foreword from Ze Frank.What's Inside the Book?
