I had this idea, years back, to start a subreddit for missed photos, IMAP instead of ITAP—"I missed a picture." I was going to make it a paragraph description, but this would be just as good.

Edit: guys, see how this is all in the past tense? I'm not going to be doing it. I don't want to be a mod.

Good idea. Seriously. Do it, do it.

Do it.

It's been about half an hour. Have you done it yet? Or are you going to let someone else beat you to it?

Yesterday you said tomorrow - just do it!

[-] zip@lemmy.blahaj.zone 4 points 10 months ago

I can't tell you how often I hear Shia Lebouf screaming all that at me in my head when I'm trying to get myself to do something, lol!

I would subscribe and contribute to this community for sure. So often I see amazing things and don't have my phone to capture it, and it would be a cool place to share some of those things, both serious and silly ♡

[-] fishos@lemmy.world 6 points 10 months ago

Piling on to say do it. I'd subscribe.

[-] CrayonRosary@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

Just Do It®

I love this. Do it and I guarantee I will share at least 3 drawings.

[-] CaptainBlagbird@lemmy.world 35 points 10 months ago

Yes! For the fun and privacy!

[-] cloudless@feddit.uk 22 points 10 months ago

That could be a good experience for the baby.

I wonder if there is some research showing the effects on exposing babies to visual art.

[-] EndHD@lemm.ee 33 points 10 months ago

maybe, but i feel like while it may correlate, it's not the cause. the cause is more likely that if a parent cares enough to show their child art, they're probably more nurturing and prioritize academia more than parents who raise an iPad kid

[-] Gormadt@lemmy.blahaj.zone 12 points 10 months ago

Yeah this would be one that's really hard to separate causation from correlation that's for sure

[-] Cliff@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

But it's safe to say: Every single person who confuses correlation and causation ends up dying.

Who's to say they're not looking at art on their ipad? Not being able to afford or have the time or ability to take a day off and travel to a gallery, or having a neurodiverse kid who doesn't like crowded spaces, or whatever other reason they might be using an ipad doesn't make "ipad kids" bad.

I don't disagree with your larger point, just with the framing of "ipad kids" as the bad part when it's a symptom (of a society where people feel obliged to have kids even if they don't want them and/or are required to work so hard just to survive that they don't have the time and energy to spend with their children).

(and for the record just to save any jumping to conclusions - I don't have kids, don't plan to, this isn't some defensive thing, I just think that your framing is off)

[-] EndHD@lemm.ee 15 points 10 months ago

my apologies. i meant "iPad kid" as in the Internet stereotype where the kid essentially throws a tantrum if they can't watch their skibidi toilet. and their parents don't take initiative to engage the child in something more beneficial

if the child uses an iPad to look at art, that's a great use of the tool and i fully support it

hopefully that clears up what i meant :)

having a neurodiverse kid who doesn’t like crowded spaces

I wish I could live somewhere where art galleries are crowded...

I don't know about visual art but there is about music. Exposing a baby to complex music (many notes), like classical and jazz can help develop perfect pitch. The brain learns musical notes like it learns language.

[-] xX_fnord_Xx@lemmy.world 5 points 10 months ago

Babies take to art at an impressive rate, you just have to really grind their face into it.

The crying stops once they understand the art.

[-] moon@lemmy.cafe 3 points 10 months ago

Idk, clearly the baby thinks it's a mediocre piece of art😐

[-] Thcdenton@lemmy.world 15 points 10 months ago

Thats wholesome and adorable. My pops used to always pick me up to see stuff when I was little.

[-] Ziglin@lemmy.world 14 points 10 months ago

Well I'm afraid there'd be a lot of featureless stick men...

That's fine imo. Photorealism isn't necessary to tell a story

[-] wildcardology@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

The op pic isn't photorealistic but I can't still draw like that.

[-] troglodytis@lemmy.world 8 points 10 months ago

Draw a picture, it'll last longer

[-] magnusmanske@lemmy.ml 7 points 10 months ago

Was it a picture of Vigo the Carpathian?

[-] TheThunderWolf@thelemmy.club 6 points 10 months ago

everyone bring this to the front page plz
