Laura O'Brien and I have collaborated on our first Flash animation. Jeez, what a pain in the ass! Not because of Laura (she is an excellent collaborator), but because our brains weren't built to function the way Flash asks them to. With tips from Beth Scott (whose brain DOES function the way Flash asks it to), however, we were able to get all 52 seconds of mostly repeated motion up on Youtube. The result is "Tokyo Transit Dreams", a simple animation with a simple concept... Do reserved people get wild in their dreams? Mentally blink and you'll miss it.

Oh Hal Hartley! Oh Godard!
Back in April, I posted about this scene I love from Hal Hartley's 'Simple Men":

Now I feel like a dope. In the midst of a Godard frenzy, I recently watched "Bande à part" and discovered this freaking fantastic scene (note: the subtitles are iffy in their translation here) that was clearly Hartley's inspiration:
Vive la Godard!
