Looking For Quacks In The Pavement

  • Links to my first music videos, long overdue

    It occurs to me that I have yet to link to my first two anime music videos. Let’s fix that, shall we?

    My first video is The Ecstasy of Jurai, a two-minute exercise in “not screwing up too badly.” It’s wordless and sort of quaint. The music is from the opening to a Metallica concert, the footage is from the Tenchi Muyo OAV episode titled “Here Comes Jurai.”

    My second video is Mayuka Really Loves Me (Yeah), four minutes of Tenchi Muyo “Manatsu no Eve” footage set to music by Dada. It’s not a perfect video, but I’m quite proud of it nonetheless. My intent was to create something a bit creepy (not icky, just kind of weird) without losing the positive aspects of the story. In some places the lyrics, melody and visuals really work in this one, if I may say so.

    These are both rather large MPEG files, so unless you have lots of spare time or a fast internet connection you should probably leave off downloading. Sorry.

    I’m starting work on a third video this weekend. Wish me luck.

  • When the gods play badminton

  • My Poem Tag

    When I saw that Jessy had made one, and done such a nice job of it, I was compelled to create my own Poem Tag:

  • Little Washuu: The Wallpaper

    Finally I got around to doing something about the fact that there aren’t enough Tenchi Muyo wallpapers to go around. (Hadn’t you noticed? Maybe not.)

    My very first real artwork submission to DeviantArt is a wallpaper titled Little Washuu. Check it out, if you’re into that sort of thing.

    UPDATE: Fixed the link. Stupid DevArt linkrot.

  • Prototypical Journal Entry #823-B

    Blah blah blah blah blah. Blah blah blah. Blah blah blah, blah?

    Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah. Blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah. Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah, blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.

    Blah blah blah. Blah, blah blah blah blah blah.

  • And I call myself a writer.

    You’ll note that in my “Fun with Webcams” entry I bounce gracelessly from tense to tense. I suppose I could go back and edit the entry to fix it, but that seems a bit dishonest given that I didn’t notice my mistake before a full day had passed.

    Ordinarily I’d submit myself to a jolly round of self-recrimination, but I think I’m getting too old for that kind of childishness, don’t you?
