karma

I probably deserved the curse of ugly video artifacts and crappy image resolution, as I have spent the last two or three weeks animating the massacre of various cute woodland creatures.

A tongue in cheek hunting expedition through woods over-populated with a proliferation of cute critters. Even the cutest of bunnies and the doiest-eyed deer aren't safe in these here woods. It's time for a cull.

I know, I'm sorry. I occasionally felt bad about it.

Anyway, some pictures of the other works. It's worth a wander up the street if you are around at night. I loved this monkey walk (top) and Yandell Walton's leaves were quite beautiful.






As expected, Jethro got in for a bit of an inspection. I think he approved. He didn't mind that the bunnies died. He knows all about fashion vermin.

bright lights

The Gertrude Street Projection Festival opens tonight, which means there will be all sorts of pretty lights out there to brighten our cold dark nights.

look into my eyes
It also means that I have to make these damn animations I've been working on play on the screens they are to play on. I am having technology nightmares, and I swear I have converted and exported every type of .mp4 and .mov file known to man. Fingers crossed I find the one I need.

It's a collaboration with the clever Penelope Durston, and she has been stitching away making a doily wonderland for the critters to play in. If the worst comes to the worst we will lock Jethro in the box and shine lights on him. He doesn't mind, really. He loves the spotlight. It was his idea.

Find it for free on Gertrude street, 6-12pm nightly until July 10. Our work, (and probably Jethro) will be in the window of Cottage Industry, no. 61.
