Last night I went to Departure Lounge here in brighton, a monthly Japanese culture night with j-pop & anime.
In the line up was The Ghibili’s which was a mix of sketchy artwork and 3d graphics, blended in the most beautiful way, however the best was yet to come, daft punk’s Interstella 5555!
Fucking amazing. However there seems to be a hole in the translation, 5 = go in Japanese so the title really means Interstella go go go go, I suppose this is a pun, you read it here first! ;)
The animation is fantastic and is filled humourous and interesting links to Daft Punk, its a constant joy. It’s also well timed to the Daft Punk album, featuring the single one more time. The animation is directed by Kazuhisa Takenouchi & Leiji Matsumoto, so its super retro! (think Ulysses 31, battle of the planets etc)
Go pick up the DVD, its out tomorrow.

While walking back from the local Tesco’s, I was crossing the road with my bag full of munchies.
Look right, Look left, Look right again.
Cross
FUCK!!
A great big bus in my face driving on the WRONG side of the road, choc full of passengers hurlting toward me! Needless to say, I Peter Panned it out of the way with mere milimeters to spare…
Also needless to say, I shaked my Tictacs at that fucker.
Ho hum, dicing with death. Thats me, living on the edge and all that.
Working long hours on graphics tends do strange things to ones mind. I worked from 9am till 10pm, any normal soul would have gone home straight to bed… not me!
I went home and made some T-Shirts! Check them out!

Went up to London for the afternoon, had some free time so I thought I’d take a look at David Blane in his box. Very entertaining indeed! He even waved at me… or it might have been the large chasted beauty behind me, I honestly don’t know.
To make matters worse for him, there’s a hot dog stand under his suspended glass box! (for those not in the know, David Blane is spending 44 days in a suspended glass box near Tower Bridge, with no food)
He looked happy.

got my K|i|S|S dvd player! (finally…)
I bought it from scan.co.uk, although I won’t link their site because they are shit, the first on they sent me was broken and I had to wait two weeks for a replacement.
But IT FUCKING ROCKS!
Specs, for the inner geek;
dual scan
multiregion
plays every format, including DivX!!
Ethernet port for network streaming
Internet radio
4mb firmware scratch mem
200mhz processor
I tried it out with a few movies I downloaded from the internet in Mpeg, Avi and Vcd formats, played them all wonderfully.
drove up to Edge 10th birthday party. A pretty empty affair, although I did meet someone who I have admired for a long time; Gazz Top!!
He was going out with “Violet Berlin” another TV presenter and very very grumpy, snooty and otherwise not someone you’d enjoy talking to, so I didn’t.
The other guy in the photo was the editor of Edge magazine, but I think he left the magazine…
