I became very frustrated while trying to make a post about the wonderful dump.fm net-artist sight. So, decided to make this stuttering mess mono log declaring my intended message about Dump.
Animated gifs are incredible fun to make and play with. my first adventures on dump were spent just tampering with the juxtapositioning of other peoples dumps, then learned to produce my own gifs on the easy to use site PHOTOBLASTER (which is best used on Firefox) Me and computers go together like toothpaste and orange juice, yet this process was still fairly user friendly.
The most fascinating things about Dump to me are the hyper speed that people are able to fearlessly post and spin images. A post is seemingly a hit or a miss. If it is a hit you might get several members marking your "dump" as a favorite, in which you are immediately notified by a cute pink heart icon. Also, another cardinal right of a favored dump is having all or part of the post reposted.
Sometimes a repost will be simply accompanied by another image or a dump meme such as
The factors of the popularity of a dump post don’t necessarily depend on the quality of the image posted, but rather who might be online at the moment as well as the relevance of the subject. Repost enough, and people will eventually pick it up and make it there own, or fuck it up in some way. This is a sign of success. Dump is a place where we are allowed to comment on our world in whatever process we arrive to in a moment. The rawness is a genuine liberty. It is about a hyper-collectivity. And it rules.
