Song?
Gondolas have psychic powers.
They use these powers, 1, to hold things.
Their powers of telekinesis, for the average gondola, are about as powerful as the average adult human's hands and arms.
2, they use these powers to travel through our realm, through space and time, to wherever they most desire to go.
3, they use these powers to project their emotions, and their internal music, following along with their emotions, to the few that see them.
While only well-trained gondola can use the second two, nearly all can use the first.
There is a gondola homeworld, full of gondola doing exactly as we humans do, but a gondola with particular desire to explore and adventure will always find his way to our realm.
In our realm, gondolas can only be seen by the few that need to see them most, appearing to most of the rest as invisible. The few that can see a gondola at any particular moment in time will most often find that the creature appears distorted, like the drawing of an unskilled artist.
Occasionally, young gondola make their way to our realm by accident, and end up raised by humans, eventually all one day leaving home to travel the realm, though all of time and all of space.
Not all gondola are like the enlightened ones that you may have met, but all gondola, even the passive ones that never leave home, on occasion, find peace.
I hope you guys don't mind me reposting this.

>Making gondola lore
I think you're missing the point
>>1085127
Yeah nah mate
>>1085259
The point of course.
>>1085127
Nah, you're looking into it too much.
>>1085259
The main draw of gondola is it's up to individual interpretation. We all see slightly different things out of it. But at the most basic; I think most people agree that gondolas are minimalistic ventures into the expression of certain emotions. There's the gondola, in a particular setting, with some music. The later two are there to make you feel something, or try to express something. The former, the gondola, is there to tie the concept together.
But that's just my interpretation of it.

That's a pretty solid example of Gondolaing. It made some feeling and it worked out.

^Quality gondolas.
I consider myself a true epicure of gondolas
The feeling a good gondola elicits is hard to describe. It's not loneliness. It's certainly not depression. It's a sort of soothing, melancholy awe. A combination of comfiness, nostalgia, boundless joy and aching wistfulness. A true gondola is like a massage for your heart, uplifting you and making you feel human again.
>>1086472
This accurately describes how I feel when I find a good Gondola. Nice.

We should improve our gondolas. The early gondolas were all quality but there is a trend now of slapping a badly drawn gondola on a generic background then uploading it with weird non 4:3 or 16:9 aspect ratios or weird ant resolutions. It ends up ruining the immersion you get from quality gondolas. Also static images is fine if the gondola is well drawn but some small animations is prefered and greatly appreciated. Let's up the standards a little and this OC won't get spoiled or go mainstream too soon.
Remember if it's easy and lazy normies will be all over it. I bet some autist then will proceed to create a "gondola generator" which will slap a stock gondola on any image of your choice and automatically upload it to social media.
Gondola threads should be a sanctuary not a meme generator.

>>1086948
no, he has a point.
i've been guilty of this, the problem arises when you feel a particular atmosphere you want to convey as fast as possible so you end up with what he's mentioning. i think its better probably to use the initial gondola as sketch to build on despite how tempting it can be to post it when its reletively simple.
reddit will will ruin this if it gets too easy to make even if there's no overtly humorous aspect to gondola.

Whats the best way to make it look like something is reflecting in Gondola's eyes? Im using paint.net, and ive tried turning down the opacity on the reflecting image in his eyes, but its not quite right,
First gondola btw
>>1087545
Make sure you are getting the angle and depth right. It won't look like a reflection if it looks like it's sitting on the surface of the eye, but if it looks like it's just below the surface (done with placement and angles) you can make it look better.
>>1083730

>>1088993
for you
>>1088804
outside of those rare gondola animations like https://youtu.be/aU4ehgnTjVg , they're mostly just an odd form of art.
I want to say moodlet but that's something from the sims.
alternatively you can go with:
>Gondola was not a mistake
>Gondolas are relaxed, harmless creatures that observe their environment.
>They rarely interfere anything, but just keep observing.
>They rarely talk, just look around and smile.
>This makes them very different from other creatures such as spurdo, that feel, pepe, yoba, etc.
>Gondola is the silent walker.
>Having no hands he embodies the Taoist principle of wu-wei (non-action) while his smiling facial expression shows his utter and complete acceptance of the world as it is.

Anons when were you gondola in real life.
One time I stood on a small rock surrounded by ocean water and watched the sun set as massive torrents of waves came bouncing across two giant boulders that framed the scene. It was like being tenderly fucked by Poseidon himself.
>>1089039
For me i was on mushrooms at a local park and i was laying in the grass while listening to music, can't remember what i was listening to but while i was laying in the grass i looked up at the clouds and watched them go by and they would make weird shapes, it just gave me a very nostalgic feeling Kind of what i get from gondolas
>>1088145
Thanks man. I love the dark, eerie gondolas (gondola related). I do agree >>1086779 that putting in some more effort might spare gondola from going rage-comic tier though so I need to improve.

Gondola came from an Italian poster on the /int/ board on ylilauta.
There is no message.
Gondola has long legs and likes to travel.

>>1096743
this should probably be cut at 1m03s. the music is really nice but i feel like the key change there is a little too dramatic for gondola. also minute is a good length.
>>1092628
It's because Gondola have this strange level of self examination about them. They are simply there.
You see the Gondola there simply being and you just are drawn in. Often you put your own meaning in beyond what the Anon that made it intended.
reminder that gondolas aren't a platform for you to share chill tracks that you want people to hear for some reason. if it is just one scene with a little animation, it should be about 20s long; just choose the section of music that best captures the mood and is consistent throughout. if ppl want to listen to the whole track they will ask for it.

This is basically the effect a good gondola has on me. Seeing a gondola in a scene I recognize triggers a shitton of memories of single instants. History/sci-fi gondolas work too though; introspection in travel is timeless, and if you've imagined the situation it can be just as powerful. Gondolas portray specific experiences we recognize and realize we value, regardless of if we noticed we appreciated them at the time

Don't listen them, feel free to make it your way. This is another form of art after all. Also very good choice of music, considerable amount of work of arvo part have some kind of perfect loop predisposition

This oddly looks like one of my recent dreams. I stared to a giant and he stared me back for a few secs then he left like it's usual to him

It'd be nicer if it was animated, at least with the propellers moving and the plane moving up and down a little--just a sense of motion.

This should be indeed the golden rule of gondolas. I have also noticed sometimes people will just throw a gondola on an image on a 5 min track cleary for the music which kind of beats the purpose of gondola.
First gondola attempt, hope it's enjoyed.

What game is this from?

I wish there were more Kino instrumentals.
Some of their stuff is really Gondola-worthy, imo.

I like it but the music is very quiet
