That word has been bouncing ’round my head lately. Part of it has been Steve Hickey<\/b>‘s posts about sticky ideas<\/a>.

There are doubtless innumerable posts in the ether about what makes a piece of art resonate.<\/p>\n

For me, it’s a singular interpretation, execution and vision that transports the viewer.<\/p>\n

I have no idea where David Simon<\/b> and Eric Overmyer<\/b> are going with Treme<\/i> but I am so there<\/i>, man, because I’m hooked<\/i>. Same goes for the recently concluded 100 Bullets<\/i> from Messieurs Brian Azzarello<\/b> and Eduardo Risso<\/b> – each trade paperback left me floundering as a reader but I’d still make enough connections between the many, many<\/i> plotlines and goddamn<\/b><\/i> if it wasn’t a hot little page-turner.

Each title resonates not just because they’re so different from everything else out there that they’re essential reading\/watching – they’re the creators talking directly to us the audience at an individual level. They’re connecting<\/i>.<\/p>\n

That’s resonating.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
