Tweets from “Comics: Philosophy and Practice”

I was at the University of Chicago at the Comics: Philosophy and Practice last weekend, and live-tweeted most of it. A few people have asked for a link-able, reusable version of this documentation, so here it is (after the jump). I’m working on a comics story about it, for the University of Chicago Magazine, and will update about that here.

From the intro:

From an R. Crumb postcard to Chute: worried about boring audience. Let’s keep in mind that this is about comic books! #comicscon May 18, 2012

Art Spiegelman and W.J.T. Mitchell in conversation

Spiegelman to be interviewed by WJT Mitchell, who was my BA thesis advisor in 1991 (which was a comic…) #comicscon May 18, 2012
Spiegelman “too daunted” by company to give a keynote… Prefers to play wise guy in an interview #comicscon May 18, 2012
Mitchell: is there a “philosophy” of comics? (pre-answers “yes”) #comicscon May 18, 2012
The curse of comics: is there one? It was low art, now academic attention: not unmixed blessing. #comicscon May 18, 2012
First slide: THE CURSE of Comics as the LOWEST art. This is why Spiegelman got into it. Could be left alone. #comicscon May 18, 2012
Medium of mass communication when superseded technologically, has to become art to survive. (see woodcuts) #comicscon May 18, 2012
Comics born of a print technology. Pulitzer wanted to print “great art”, technology didn’t work 4 that, worked 4 vulgar comics. #comicscon May 18, 2012
Q: did you really drink a pot of ink? A: well, I sipped it… #comicscon May 18, 2012
If children like something, adults get frightened and try to control it. Photo crazy huge comics stand 1949 then Comics burning #comicscon May 18, 2ad012
Spiegelman used lists of banned comics as a shopping list #comicscon May 18, 2012
Spiegelman learned to read to learn if batman is a good guy or a bad guy. “Frank Miller is still working on that.” #comicscon May 18, 2012
Comics were a guilty pleasure: Mad was the “original sin”. what does it mean if they’re no longer guilty? #comicscon May 18, 2012
Maybe the answer is to make more dangerous comics–important to make things that aren’t easy To assimilate. Spiegelman #comicscon May 19, 2012
Looking at close ups of Mad covers, talking about Spiegelman’s “Talmudic” study. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Girodet: the Birth of Drawing. 18 19th century fascinated with myth of connecting drawing to love/or lust #comicscon May 19, 2012
THe line of beauty, Hogarth. The root of the doodle, also captain haddock being drunk. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Topffer: physiognomy a scicence is stupid, but we all know what we mean, so great for comics. Study of physiognomy in comics #comicscon May 19, 2012
Nasty caricature in a learn to cartoon ad from the 30s, said you can make 20 to 200 a week. “Amazing that it’s still true!” #comicscon May 19, 2012
Discussion of stereotype/caricature. Spiegelman says caricature has to have underlying type to work, a problem. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Current dilemma: how do you draw a black president and avoid indicating that he’s black? Can’t/won’t use the old stereotypes #comicscon May 19, 2012
@boxbrown @bambambarbarian WJT Mitchell, ed of critical inquiry May 19, 2012
Showing Ceci n’est pas une pipe…Foucault thinks of words images as in battle. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Some concerns of keeping word and image apart no longer relevant b/c images reserved for beauty, now beauty ugliness a stew.#comicscon May 19, 2012
For some cartoonists (Panter) maybe the original really is the original, and the comic is a catalog. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Comics avant grade moving very much towards the image. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Keep reading about the death of the book, but the most beautiful books since the middle ages keep coming out. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Comics getting a history with great reprint projects. #comicscon May 19, 2012
History of comics has been the history of printing up until now. New media will make comics something else. #comicscon May 19, 2012
The result of current technology is often faster obsolescence–cd-roms are unreadable today. Newspaper closer to stone tablets.#comicscon May 19, 2012
Spiegelman’s theory of comics’ value related to his interest in “chicken fat”. Dig in &reread to get all the fatty goodness out. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Spiegelman: Neo-sincerity. Use tools of irony to say things that need saying. Example: Colbert. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Question: what would be unsafe way to handle comics in classroom? A: terrified that book used as text. Will make it medicine. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Glad Maus is used in classroom. But wary of what can happen when works wrung out. #comicscon May 19, 2012
…which not really an answer to the question, had to do w how safe it is to do non-fic comics in classroom, and what to do to shake up. May 19, 2012
If 300 pg GN only format that works, problem. Not everybody ready to do more than 2 pp at a time. Comics an art of compression. #comicson May 19, 2012
Argument for short work, relearning to look at visual side of what comics can be, as opposed to long narrative. Spiegelman #comicson May 19, 2012

Panel: Comics and Autobiography: Aline Kominsky-Crumb, Justin Green, Carol Tyler, Phoebe Gloeckner

Live webcam of U of C comics conference starting around now. Will be live tweeting off an on today. #comicscon http://t.co/mi8Icnwl May 19, 2012
Kominsky-Crumb, Tyler, Gloeckner, Green talking about digital comics. G: willing to admit we’re working in lapsed medium (ink).#comicsedu May 19, 2012
Gloeckner: working on new book that will also have different iPad version. A character still, but breathing. #comicsedu May 19, 2012
Gloeckner: have to deal with how people read online. Can’t simply scan print comics. #comicsedu May 19, 2012
Tyler: worst 8 months of her life, but sitting at the drawing table, everything melts away, “oh, I’m home!” #comicscon May 19, 2012
Green: a power to comics that’s is unique. Balance images and words in a way that’s kinetic. Like music. K-C : like opera. #comicscon May 19, 2012
If yr in Chicago, there are seats available at the #comicscon due to NATO shutdowns/cancellations. Come on down. May 19, 2012
Green: dirty little secret of comics writing is copy fitting. Maybe need an arm holding a broken bottle in that space, so you axe an adverb. May 19, 2012
Green: splash panel brings in the rubes. You do that beautifully, then you can lame out after… #comicscon May 19, 2012
Gloeckner never draws more than a panel ahead. Never plans the full arc. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Tyler: can’t work on a script. teaching, tells kids plot structure is da-da, da-da, da-DAH…da-da. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Gloeckner–my visit to her class was a relief. Different style. She sets them free, I gave a bit of structure. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Venues for short work out there. Tyler: One pagers great to master. Splash, sequence, whole story. A haiku.// I agree… #comicscon May 19, 2012
Tyler: cleaning ductwork. Took pix of herself and Green in masks, thought, at least could draw it later. Not just duct work. #comicscon May 19, 2012
@harveyjamestm Phrased it badly. Discussion was of the strength of cartooning using types, need to fight that tendency, find new ways. May 19, 2012
Gloeckner: have students copy R. Crumb in class. What if had them do Aline? Would students understand skill and beauty of it? #comicscon May 19, 2012
Kominsky-Crumb: Wimmen’s Comix a divisive group. Not the most nurturing group. Gloeckner: so unpleasant. But we stuck with it. #comicsedu May 19, 2012
Gloeckner: don’t make me token, label me “woman” cartoonist. I don’t call Robert a white male cartoonist. Well, I do, but… #comicscon May 19, 2012
Green re self-portraiture. Vey unforgiving, can be very unflattering. But there’s a truth there you have to face. #comicsedu May 19, 2012
Green: can’t make an idealized portrait of yourself b/c then you’re vain, so you try to apply ironic scrutiny to your depiction. #comicscon May 19, 2012
K-C in early comics looked like a monster. Felt like that. Tyler: try to present a slightly idealized, simplified self. #comicsedu May 19, 2012
Gloeckner: takes much longer to draw yourself as you get older. So many lines. K-C: Botox out forehead lines. Gloeckner: so practical! May 19, 2012
End of the autobio panel. Sacco up next. #comicscon May 19, 2012

Joe Sacco and W.J.T. Mitchell in conversation

Sacco intros happening–“Chicago Style” ie really long. Get on the live stream–Sacco is always so interesting to see … May 19, 2012
Though that autobio panel will be hard to beat. Very interesting and funny. #comicscon May 19, 2012
WJT Mitchell: “what the blankety blank happened to comics and what did you have to do with it?” //we ask no small questions here. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Sacco: adult comics happened. I went through that door opened by others. Mitchell: but, is drawing comics a second childhood? #comicscon May 19, 2012
Sacco: not childish, but subversive. Great moment in 80s and 90s when realized no one
Mitchell: self-portraiture. You insert your own image in yr comics. You’re better looking in real life. Why draw yrself that way?#comicscon May 19, 2012
Sacco: influenced by underground comics. Interested in grotesque. But after first ish Palestine got reactions to “caricature”… #comicscon May 19, 2012
…forced self to draw representation ally. But still draw self bigfoot style. Draw how feel, not how look. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Sacco: No eyes drawn b/c don’t want to give too much info about me. Less focus on me. Sounds silly to say it. Going to start drawing eyes. May 19, 2012
Realized in Palestine that you can write facts about things and not tell the truth. furious. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Mitchell brings up Mad mag again. Clearly so important in forming earlier generation. My question: What’s the Mad of today? #comicscon May 19, 2012
Attention to detail in Sacco’s work is influenced by early reading of will elder mad Reprints. May 19, 2012
Mitchell: how do funnier, more personal moments form frame to more horrific stuff? Sacco: used to be more conscious of leading readers in… May 19, 2012
Sacco: now I stay out of the way. There are funny moments there, have to let them happen. Says something about humanity of subjects.#comicscon May 19, 2012
Sacco: easiest thing for me is to get away. I can retreat from refugee camp. They live there. Don’t know how they deal with it. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Part of writing comics is figuring out when words are needed, when you can let images speak for themselves. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Sacco: Comics journalism a fluid medium, can draw clouds in expressive manner, give reader feeling of oppression. Not realistic. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Sacco:I want the reader to just open the book and just be there. That’s why draw it in comics. Landscape a character. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Mitchell: large overhead shot Brueghel-esque. Sacco: yes, an influence, but also Will Elder. Meant to slow reader down to study. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Sacco: in photography one image tells the story. In comics, many images tell the story, so you can repeat, bring focus. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Mitchell: spend time slow-looking at a large panel. Also have sequences of slow-lIstening. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Mitchell: translating words of interviewee into images. Sacco: w/ photos of place, but translating, subjective act. try to base in interview May 19, 2012
Mitchell: Without contraries, there’s no progression. Contraries of word/image, in Sacco’s work, horror and everyday life. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Mitchell showing outtake of expressionistic beating scene from Sacco’s work. Sacco: overdone for journalistic purposes. A matter of degree. May 19, 2012
Sacco: Really getting inside someone’s pain, that’s a matter for fiction. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Sacco interested in trying a novel–fiction. Maybe essays. Comics take too long. #comicscon May 19, 2012
RT @mensch45: @jccabel Crumb gets the first question! he’s the Helen Thomas of artists! May 19, 2012
Sacco: not a sketcher. Draws from photos, and visual notes in journal. #comicscon May 19, 2012
RT @tmibwalker: “The unfortunate thing about doing journalistic work is that you have to hold back on experimentation” Joe Sacco #comicsCon May 19, 2012
Sacco: with drawing, you have to really inhabit it. More difficult than interviewing. Have to really feel what you’re drawing.#comicscon May 19, 2012
Sacco: history just throws stories at us. Have to choose. Can cover lots badly or a few well. Make a decision and stick w it. #comicscon May 19, 2012

Aline Kominsky-Crumb and Kristen Schilt in conversation

Getting ready to see Aline Kominsky-Crumb. These are the NATO-related no shows–there’s space! #comicscon http://t.co/KIIRQBZA May 19, 2012
Moderator Kristen Schilt asks how do you persist in the face of resistance from family? K-C No choice. Cheap and easy to get back at them. May 19, 2012
Crumb yelling out additions to KominskyCrumbs history… #comicscon May 19, 2012
Kominsky-Crumb’s early work talks about sexual issues for girls so frankly…still so rare. was seen by feminists as “uncle tom” #comicscon May 19, 2012
Involvement with R Crumb got her called a “camp follower” in early 70s in newspaper. Seen as betraying women by wanting to sleep w men. May 19, 2012
But Kominsky-Crumb just drawing what she knew, what she was dealing with. Not radical. What else what she do? #comicscon May 19, 2012
Kominsky-Crumb: Unflattering and unappealing for people to see women’s bodily functions. “which, eh. Too bad!” #comicscon May 19, 2012
RT @tmibwalker: Someone called Kominsky-Crumb a “talentless parasite” on the web and now she wants to use it for the title of her next b … May 19, 2012
Making harsh comics not cathartic. Had to do it, but it’s not cathartic. Kominsky-Crumb feels guilty for depiction of mother. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Kominsky-Crumb subject matter changes. No longer sex, now aging, loss of beauty, being a grandmother. Don’t put boundaries. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Working method with Kominsky-Crumb and Crumb. Write first, then Crumb lays out, then each pencil, ink, handing back and forth. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Crumb asks from audience: how do we write dialogue? K-C: what do you mean? We talk! He asks question, I talk for 15 minutes he takes notes. May 19, 2012
Why France? K-C:Needed to do something dramatic. Didn’t want to get divorced, have a facelift, go to law school. Needed a change. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Seth: do you really feel like you don’t have control of your work? As an artist I make choices. K-C: my work is all out there, like vomit. May 19, 2012
Re guilt over depicting her mom: deal with that in comics? K-C lets not go overboard. She’s not that nice, just better than she was! May 19, 2012
Gloeckner q: how did Noomin &K-C get together for Twisted Sisters? Good friends, disgusted with feminist good girls. Easy to make the work. May 19, 2012
Band Twisted Sisters took name from Aline K-C and Diane Noomin’s book… #comicscon May 19, 2012
Love that Bunch was rejected by printers…Fantagraphics had to print in Mexico. Too much/too crude for men to look at. #comicscon May 19, 2012

Panel: Graphic Novel Forms Today: Charles Burns, Dan Clowes, Seth, Chris Ware

RT @tmibwalker: So nuts!!! Ware, Burns, Clowes, Seth ALL at once!!!!!! #comicsCon http://t.co/YPnLJrAx May 19, 2012
Seth, Clowes, Burns, Ware on this panel. Moderated by Hillary Chute. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Seth: the graphic design of a book is an opportunity to affect the telling of the story. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Clowes: not excited about webcomics because they’re like a picture of a book, not the thing itself. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Seth: work doesn’t feel real, concrete until it exists in a book. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Burns: when starting, would try anything to get published. Was a time when floppy comics were a viable way to get work out. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Ware credits Raw with first creating content then package that fits that content. Higher level of design. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Seth: the cover is part of the story , not just a Alice where I get to use color for a change. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Burns: Ware responsible for establishing new norm. Each issue can be it’s own thing, different shape and size. a revelation. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Clowes: tried for years to do different sizes, couldn’t do it. When saw that first acme, half inch shorter, almost fainted. #comicscon May 19, 2012

RT @philnel: “Books are a perfect metaphor for a person.They have a spine. They’re bigger on the inside than they are on the outside.”—C … May 19, 2012
Clowes worked on Ice Haven in half pages, so always thought of it horizontal, unlike Eightball edition. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Talking about the funny pages in the NYT, the awful 100% yellow logo, the title, the vast area it took up. # May 19, 2012
Clowes: no one read the NYT strip, not happy to have done it, b/c hasn’t taken it down from site, despite requests. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Seth and Clowes both feel online availability of the work from the NYT has negatively acted book sales. #comicscon May 19, 2012
That’s “affected”… May 19, 2012
Burns series will be 3 books, last to be called “Sugar Skull” …which can’t be translated into German, it seems. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Ware: did an iPad version of comic that’s in some way about touch. By in the end, likes paper version better. Book will be box of 14 books. May 19, 2012
Seth as Ware describes incredibly complex book design: man, that makes me feel so shitty.(laffs) #comicscon May 19, 2012
Ware: Kubrick said conception of art based on degree of affection we feel for it. Want to make objects that compel reading and involvement. May 19, 2012
Seth: watches movies hundreds of times. Wants to reexperience it. Books invite that kind of engagement. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Ware: used to kiss tv set at end of Charlie Brown specials because knew wouldn’t see again for a yr. Still remember cold feeling #comicscon May 19, 2012
Burns: ware asks for Tin tin book story. B grew up w mainstream comics, Then golden comics did Tintin, dad brought home for him. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Burns: brought one home past bedtime one time, he snuck it to the window to read in the streetlight. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Seth: Dominion building models grew out of a book project, wanted to get to know place. Lost interest in book, but really do know the town. May 19, 2012
Q re the page/ thinking in pages as opposed to letting story roll out. Clowes: page natural unit. Like paragraphs. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Clowes: try to work very organically. Try to let the brain figure it out without thinking about it. When you think about it, make bad work. May 19, 2012
Clowes: think of life in pages. Have a conversation, think, there’s the punchline. Thats the silent panel. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Seth: historically comics were often a page, or in comic book, 6 pages. That’s simply how you had to think. Now many more options #comicscon May 19, 2012
Q:sad sack characters. Why? Burns: not a person who collaborates. Trying to be honest about our stories, reflect ourselves. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Clowes: look at Hernandez bros., panels full of people. My comics have solo guys walking around cities. Reflects my childhood. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Motivation for making a book? Clowes: who do you want to get back at? Burns: number of false starts. If can’t stand what yr doing, put aside May 19, 2012
Seth: to make book, have to have high confidence balanced with self loathing. Burns: self loathing v important. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Clowes: in high school searching 4 best idea for comic. Woke up w great idea, wrote down. In morning read “earphone 11 earphone” #comicscon May 19, 2012
Seth: I think you said, Chris that making art is an opportunity to correct errors of past. Clowes: I think that was Hitler. Lolz. #comicscon May 19, 2012
RT @uchicagoarts: Seth: “All fiction is world-building.” Ware: Drawing adds texture, tactility. Clowes: “We’re all power-mad megalomania … May 19, 2012
Ware: newsprint was the fiber optic cable of the 19th-20th century. #comicscon May 19, 2012
Ware’s layouts completely organic. Starts in upper left corner and draws. No thumbnails, nothing more than loose idea (!!) #comicscon May 19, 2012
