Onisuka Tiger

One of my favorite animations...

{ Onion Head }

I was first introduced to this character from talking to my family and friends through MSN messenger. I have to admit that I am an emoticon nerd, and I sure do love this guy Abo (AKA Onion-Tou)... he's just too adoreable...

{ Eggs and Sausage }

Gotta love it...

{ Joan of Arc: a Constellation of Voices }

Last Tuesday I had a visit at the DMNS Gates Planetarium to see what this constellation of voices is all about. My last experience of making an animation for the dome last year was quite interesting, but this year Bryan Leister is taking the group into a different step. It is not just animation. A group of design students at the University of Colorado Denver is collaborating with the theater department to create a live theater in a full dome environment. No other words I could use to describe this, all I can say is that...I can't wait to see the show!

Here are some photos of the making of - Joan of Arc: a Constellation of Voices -
