    I had an idea that we could come together as a community... And work out an animated project based around "A Thousand Suns". A visual and story interpretation of A Thousand Suns based around the lyrics and concepts presented in the album, with there being no words spoken by the characters; a purely music driven experience.

    What do you guys think?

    A concept album needs one to be complete. I dibs writing a storyboard, but if i'm limited to one song, i'll do a storyboard for Waiting for the End, since I don't know shit about animation.

    I really like the idea, and I can imagine the characters (Robot Boy and The Messenger maybe? haha) living in like an abstract world... I don't know, but I think it's a great idea! :)

    I'm actually in the process of writing a short story based on A Thousand Suns. I've got the general idea in an outline, I just need to write it out now...

    Such a great idea. keep the juices flowing. Theme could be like the Post Apocalyptic world from The Catalyst and LITE.

    I am down to work on this in any way possible. My forte is definitely working on plot, character development, and identifying proper visuals to convey the right meaning. Lets get a team together and do this.

    Firstly, figure out how it will be done, who will be doing what and then you can probably start working on the story itself.

    I agree. You have to nail the logistics first.
