Software contracts are often lengthy and non-interesting, which is why one artist transformed the iTunes terms and conditions guide into a cartoon comic strip. The original guide is like many software contracts -- extensive and quite lengthy, but consumers must accept all of the terms in order to to use to the program.
In an attempt to make this contact more interesting, cartoonist R. Sikoryak is in the process of transforming the entire guide into a comic book. The cartooned terms and conditions guide reveals numerous tributes to various familiar comics such as Garfield, The Adventures of Tintin and Calvin and Hobbes. Each page features a new style to ensure the reader is continuously entertained and engaged.
The guide is currently 49 pages in length and R. Sikoryak plans to continue this piece of art until the entire contract is animated.
