freaky drawings.

The other night Brett and I were cruising around town on green bicycles when we decided to play a few rounds of "freaky drawings." I don't know what the actual name of this game is but its what my sister and me have been calling it since we were little ones. The idea of the game is to draw a picture made up of simple shapes, nothing too complicated. Without your friend having seen what you've drawn, you explain to them how to draw the picture step-by-step to the best of your abilities. Directions are easily mis-communicated even with the most simple of doodles. The directions you give have to stay as simple as the drawing. "Draw a square. Inside the square draw two circles side by side, with a triangle in between, etc." This game is a great example on how human communication and verbalization is very limited, and that information is misconceived or lost in translation. Thus the birth of creativity and ideas. Here's what we made.
