Thought I'd post this here, since apparently there ARE more than two people who read it!

Awhile ago Warren Ellis had posted an idea on his site called ROTOR- essentially a rotation of artists generating content for free online. We liked this idea, specifically this part: "tumblr version of same: one writer, one illustrator, one photographer, one musician, one video/filmmaker = five slots." So we decided to make it happen.

The 5Lights Project tells stories. One story a week, told five different ways, in five different mediums, by five different artists. The emphasis is on the creation of the stories; the push to try something new and different each week.

For the month of June our five artists are:
Sam: writing
Traci Matlock: video
Mark Sarmel: illustration
Kay Pettigrew: music
Lou Noble: photographs

Thanks Warren for the idea, and we hope the rest of you like it,

Lou Noble and Katie West
