The Web Is Meant To Challenge The Mind(Please Click This Title)
"Peripheral City As Web Series"
As we all know, the World Wide Web is the "Next Frontier" in the gathering of information as well as for entertainment. Granted, much of what passes for entertainment is childish and poorly-done, but there are also the artistic short films made by students from New York Film Academy, where the plot lines cause for people to think about what they are viewing instead of merely reacting to what was viewed.
In our venture called "Peripheral City", we are not here to entertain those of the Lowest Common Denominator, but to arouse thought. So much of what is on the Major Television Networks appeals to the LCD group.
The World Wide Web doesn't have to be like an old UHF Station, where junk abounds in reruns, but of high, thought-provoking quality, very similar to Public Television or Independent Film Channel.
It is my experience with Roman Catholic Liturgy, finding in the trend toward more-Traditional means of Worship with the return of Gregorian Chant and the use of Latin in the Liturgy, that people are returning to Worship God on Sunday, being challenged by beauty of the Liturgical Experience as well as having to learn prayers in the ancient language of Latin. Most encouraging is the return of young adults, who do prefer a higher quality and are turned off by such "Music", as "Kumbaya" and "Michael Row The Boat Ashore."
To be successful in this series venture, we must challenge minds in order to entertain viewers. Mindlessness is not the series mission. This is about getting people to THINK and enjoying it. It can be done here and will be done here.
