The 25th Monte Carlo Doctrine is up! Woo! That is a proper milestone and everything.
It is especially a milestone in this case, because my goal was to reach 50. 25 is *halfway*! A big thank you to everyone who's been reading! :D
Does anyone have any questions on this momentous occasion? Things they like? Things they wish the strip did better? By now I've got at least *some* things about the project worked out in my head, so I may be able to answer!
And in case you're curious where the name Monte Carlo Doctrine comes from: I named it after the Monte Carlo Algorithms, which use random sampling to find approximate truths in extremely complicated systems. So the Monte Carlo Doctrine would be that approach, interpreted as philosophy.
I briefly tried using images that were actually random, but the results were terrible. My current goal, simplified, is to choose an image which adds something, emotionally, to the panel, and which works together with the other panels to form a cohesive whole. Obviously, I use colour to accomplish this; I've been experimenting with shape as well, with mixed results.
