Hello there, whoever I'm addressing, and welcome to the Corpus Timotheus, Internet home to me, Tim, also known as Timothesium or GiyganMage across the vast and majestic Interwebs. I'm sure you're probably thinking "So who is this Tim guy anyway, and why should I care?" If that's the case, then allow me to explain. Who am I? Well, I appear to be some sort of individuated unit of consciousness encapsulated in a gross (dense-gross, not ew-gross) corporeal manifestation collectively referred to as homo-sapiens. But I suppose you've already deduced that. Perhaps I should be a little more specific.
I like to fancy myself as a visual artist, in that I produce works of art primarily perceived via the ocular senses. I can draw just about anything in any style, but I've taken quite a liking to the art of cartooning. It's much easier and more fun to do, and it lends itself quite well to one of my many passions- storytelling. I love telling stories, be it through the medium of cartoons, comics, prose, poetry, animation, or video games. I haven't actually made any animations or video games just yet, but I do have many ideas for both, perhaps with the aid of a creative team of some sort, maybe I could one day realize these ideas (nudge-nudge wink-wink). I aspire to be a professional storyteller in some form or another, be it a comic artist/writer or animator.
Anyway, another aspect of my being involves philosophy. I do consider myself a philosopher, in that I am a lover of knowledge, and that I am constantly thinking. You'll probably see a lot of philosophizing going on in this blog. I think that you'll find my oft mystical, fantastical ideas do not exactly jive with the collective philosophical consensus, so if you're not big on thinking, I suggest you leave. Right. Now. This place is not for you.... Yet. But if you do like to think big, then make yourself comfortable, stay awhile, and we can argue about the nature of existence, meaning, beauty, morality, consciousness, and all that jazz till the end of time.
And that's pretty much it regarding my interests. Now then, what is the purpose of this blog? Well, I intend on using it as a kind of repository for all my artwork, stories, and ideas. This is why I decided on the name "Corpus Timotheus", since a corpus is a body of work. That's essentially what this blog will be, a large collection of all my works, whatever form they may take. If any of it interests you, then GREAT!! After all, I don't do this just because I intrinsically enjoy working on stuff (although that is quite a huge part of it). I do what I do because I want to provoke all sorts of things in others, like thought, emotions, laughter, tears, and anything else I feel like provoking at the moment. In short, I wish to entertain, inform, inspire, and enlighten the lot of you.
