Busy with information_creative community.

I found this website today...researched all it's components and realized it's a pretty awesome site that offers inforamtion about creatives and for creatives to get together and be seen. It has groups with different interests that cover an extremely broad spectrum of art related endeavors. This community site resembles in some aspects what I'll be creating for my senior project at Otis College of Art and Design. Looking at SprayGraphics.com reminds me that the design world is complex with lots of avenues. Creativity comes in all sorts of forms, and capturing all of it, is not an easy task. This site is not working for me in terms of how the information is organized. There's so much to look at I get lost. For other creatives though, this may be a fun and interesting aspect to the site. It's not predictable which in essence means you won't get bored while there. I like how you can either read artist interviews or see what projects have been voted the best for that day. For my senior project I will be creating a website that engages with the art communities in Los Angeles. Next week I will be presenting my idea for this class,and then will post it here.
