Webcomic Profile: signifikat
Description
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage
And then is heard no more: it is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

Simon & Garfunkel say hello! I actually heard "I Am A Rock" on the radio
last week, and even though I've known that song forever, it was the first time I actually
really listened to the lyrics (You probably know this yourself... when you're very
accustomed to a song you won't consciously listen to the lyrics...). And so I found myself
appreciating its lyrics for the first time, and I thought I just HAD to include them on
signifikat.
In the philosophy of language, there's a very basic (and quite Wittgensteinian) difference between statements and expressions - statements referring to objective facts, expressions referring to subjective states. Can you guess which is which on this page? :P
Thanks for reading.

My original script had a little bit of internal monologue here, but I figured this page
would be more effective without words... now everyone can make of it what they will.
Note: I caught a cold, so I may have worked on this page while being delirious. Although the real surprise should be that I was NOT delirious while working on the other pages!
Thanks for reading.

There are going to be some minor cast changes on this comic. Story and dialogue will stay
exactly the same though!
J/k...
Just a lil' bit of random omake, inspired by this interview: http://www.drunkduck.com/community/view_topic.php?tid=48513&cid=2126&comic_id=1967 1

The angle was too hard to pull off the first time, so I basically ended up pencilling this
page twice. I'm still not too happy with some aspects, but happy enough to post it and be
done with it!
Anyway, this is another "meta" sort of monologue. I'll leave it up to you to figure it out ^_^

Some of this might be meta as well :P ...I know, the "writing myself into my
work" metaphor is not that creative or original... it just lent itself.
Due to its spontaneous nature, signifikat is a comic which depends completely on the mood I'm in while drawing a page. I would write a rough script, but change it completely if I'm in the mood for something different. The rough script for this page had a rather abstract text about the nature of writing and language, but I rewrote it bit by bit over the last few days. There's less text now, and it's a more personal bit about how writing transforms and defines one's way of life.
Iia's "academy" look is based on a drawing by S. A. Welland (mosslark.com).

Just for the record: He's still sporting the Gummi Bears underwear (see ch. 3 page 15). I
simply refuse to draw tiny Gummi Bears here and there and everywhere!
