Tags are the new Keywords

Keywords on deviations were built to be an important tool to help discover artwork. But as deviantART grows and strives to create new ways to discover great content, we’ve found that keywords as we currently use them have become underutilized.  We think we can do better -- and can make a better experience for the community -- by making some changes. In the coming month, keywords will transition into tags, and we’ll be improving the way they work. Tags will better surface artwork, allow deviants to form communities around topics, make it easier to find other artists and art appreciators, and increase discoverability. For example,

This piece was given to me to read in one of my very first workshops at university, which is why I thought it was an appropriate choice. We don't need to delve deep into the context and themes of the piece, but in particular, I hope there was some attention paid to how ch

Callow's Class

Some people just stopped coming to lectures. It wasn't reasonable, expecting us to understand all of that, they said. They may have been right, but we cling too closely to reason, sometimes. Others claimed to learn more by reading the textbook. I've always thought that was unfair. Prof. Callow may have been unreasonable – undoubtedly he was unreasonable – in expecting Freshers to appreciate the beauty of the eightfold way; but he did it with an energy and charisma that none of the books even aspire to. That may have been what scared them off, I suppose. Whatever the reasons, the class shrank rapidly. The nonchalant back row slunk

#SixWordStories: Monthly Showcase

A type of Flash Fiction, six word stories are (very) short stories with an exact word count: six words. SixWordStories (https://www.deviantart.com/sixwordstories) is the place where, alongside quality, quantity really does matter. Though these stories are so brief in length, they can be as profound, if not more, than the prose and poetry you see and read every day, partly because six word stories can tell us so much and yet contain so little. In our feature articles, we will be showcasing six word stories submitted to Freestyle folder. :thumb437510286: :thumb442510012: :thumb441904533: :thumb441084572: :thumb441560479: :thumb441459095: :thumb441193005: :thumb437636776: :thumb440

cap-tive

- I   spent     two years in exile     for someone elses crime,         and paid my dues    while the other half simply watched me...                 ...drag the cross I bore                    over the finish line;       hands at their sides,       feet propped up,  laughing in my face. I worked my way up, d  r  a  g  g  i  n....g my mistakes behind me;            My past makes each step     harder than the one before, pulling me down into the mud        made up of my trodden missteps,    holding me cap-tive  like a moth to light.

10 Long Rock Songs

I tend to like longer songs, especially of epic proportion as they let me get into groove that I just can’t get from a three minute production of some music nowadays. Maintaining a song for a length over ten minutes is a challenge that requires dedication, creativity, and a rediscovery within the song itself so that it is unique every time it is listened to.The few exceptional songs that exist in rock music are harder to come across and have an atmosphere all their own. In no particular order, here are ten of some of the best examples of rock songs exceeding ten minutes (excluding live versions for fairness). King Crimson - Starless J
