Twitter-Inspired Art
Some Twitter users bemoan the service’s 140-character limit. But to others, the restrictions are a source of inspiration.
And any technology that has the cultural impact of Twitter will inevitably be embraced by artists (if only for the publicity).
Writer Arjun Basu has made a name for himself writing 140 character stories he calls “Twisters.” Basu has gained a relatively large following on Twitter–over 8,000 followers to date–and now, one of his micro-stories has been turned into a micro-movie.
The film is part of Filminute, an annual festival of one-minute-long films that runs until September 30.

I’m alright with the 140 character limit, I have always been of the opinion that less is more, with content cut to the chase.
