Sizz Culture

c/Sizz is a place to share and discuss Sizz culture and aesthetics. We wish to share our enthusiasm of the art as well as foster critical analysis.

What is the Sizz Culture?

Sizz is defined not by a set of specific rules, but by an "ethos" - composition is valued over technique, experimentation over purity, and feeling over formula. A sort of combination of the German expressionist method of abstraction to build a sense of mood, the emotion created by contrast and lighting in American film noir, and the way the Japanese are-bure-bokeh street photography movement embraces griminess and lack of focus in its snapshots. The term "sizz" is intended as onomatopoeia to simulate the sound of noise - according to Merriam-Webster, the word "sizz" means "to hiss or move with a hissing sound."

They also died on their way back.

Oates could still be wandering around in the snow. He did say he might be some time..

Edit: wandering not wondering, although to be fair both are unlikely 140+ years after his birth.

😃 Also if I remember correctly they were found later

Not Oates, he went out into the blizzard and never returned, the absolute madlad. He was poorly, but the others wouldn't leave him behind to his certain death, so he just up and left the tent for a "little walk", never to be seen again, in order to give a chance to the others. A true English gentleman.

The others continued their journey for another two weeks or so, until they all died, to be found later.
