For nearly a year, I've been wrestling with the decision on whether Schism is a race car with the attention to detail normally seen in fine art, or a fully functional artistic depiction of a race car. Subtle difference, but it has huge implications on how all these parts come together, and how far we ultimately go with each one of them.
I am leaning
really heavily towards the insanely detailed race car.

Curt, my engine guy, and I were discussing this last night over beers. I've been kind of migrating that way since I started assembling it, as that's just what it feels like it wants to be, when it grows up.

The final straw that is really pushing it in that direction is I finally made some creative breakthroughs with my electric motorcycle project that will allow it to carry more of the art burden, freeing Schism to follow its own course.
Put in music/movie terms, the theme song in its trailer seems to feature an overdriven Stratocaster blazing through a stack of Marshalls...
