Many a condescending face has asked me what to think of Fear. Its thirteen blogs announce themselves equally, with the suggestion of numerical order, and then shy away from interaction once clicked. Some are more dense than others, some more subversive. The biggest puzzle, perhaps, is how the individual blogs relate to one another, both within their respective numerical systems and as a thirteen-part whole. Is it all one big joke? If so, what is the context?
Creators Jesus Archangard and Christoph Magreat have made many blogs, together and separately, with Fear as perhaps their primary collaborative work. They are not known for their transparency as artists. With that in mind, all I can hope to do is offer the blogs as they are, collected under one "roof," in the interest of assisting analysis and appreciation.
Titles are the title of the original blog. Dates are of original blog posting. All images can be opened in a new tab for closer examination, because this is the internet.

[ Obviously Archangard and Magreat are not real people, they are in fact the actual art work here. Archangard is my friend Lindsay, and Magreat is me. Some of the following blogs are theirs, some are mine.
[ If you want an actual explanation, albeit a partial one, take a look at Section I of the Viceking's Graab essay. ]
