My first impression of this video was that this person is looking back on scenes or memories through tearful eyes. Regardless of how the blurring interprets literally, the more I watch it the more I’ve started to feel it. Inori is not so much about what was lost, but what was gained. So yes, the world is blurring, but the memories themselves are transforming from hurtful to hopeful by finding the beauty within the pain. It’s a simple matter of changing where your focus is and where your camera’s eye is trained.
It’s a beautiful video, if a little dull, but whenever I feel a yawn coming on, Sakurai’s unrivaled passion brings me back. I love that this band can have such a big, bold artistic concept in their video. They truly are a dying breed.
I don’t often get a chance to share my work with my beloved inus but since someone uploaded our story/food segment on The King of Shish Kabob to the webs, I highly recommend you check it out below.
Makes you hungry huh? btws, they have jawesome (jaw-droppingly awesome) hummus.
We went for a stroll with Maya and it turned into one of the most adorkable videos I’ve ever cut. I used to love this Amuro Namie song when I was a younger man… but it was always missing something. Suffice to say, I’ve fixed it with the addition of Maya.
No sooner had I declared Maya an unfeeling automatot than she exploded in glee at the very idea of soap bubbles. I have documented this startling development along with her first real laughter for all to see and hear.
Let’s all pretend Eddie Vedder is singing “Why deny all the bubbles when combined…” that is, if you can understand him at all.
Finally caught up with updating IWP. These are the February episodes… the profoundlydisturbing February episodes. Remember: You can’t unsee what you commit to ocular memory.
It has been far too long, my lovely internet hounds.
I have been a very busy boo-bear. First of all, I have my own “TV Show.” I use quotations because it’s really more of a filler segment that airs all across the state of New Jersey between other shows no one watches on a channel that most people surf through without a second thought. Also, I can’t tell you when it will definitively be on the air because it’s random. It’s not all doom and gloom though, because thanks to the magic of the internet, I’m able to share my show with you on the down low. So go and watch interviews: with people but don’t run off to facebook or tweet these awesome contents because it’s our little secret. This really is the most deranged thing I’ve been a part of yet (this runs a close second) and I am immensely proud of it.
You’ll notice that the video player has been upgraded. Yeah. It rocks. Sakura (aka Leisl Schrader) owned the redesign. About the only thing this new and improved shit doesn’t do is the dishes. The rest of the site got an overhaul too although the design remains the same. Mostly, it’s just become very easy for me to do my own updates for the video and audio content so that’s what I intend on doing.
I always said I wanted this site to be more about content delivery than commentary. It’s basically my refrigerator door and it is your job to tell me how much you love my picture of a fire engine. I will, of course, return the favor where possible.
The other news I have has nothing to do with projects or work and everything to do with NEW LIFE SPAWNING FROM MY WIFE’S WOMB. Yes, a little boo is on the way. My spawn grows strong. We’re expecting in early June. Life is amazing. It has fingers!!
Lots of fun stuff on the way. I hope you’ll come back now that I’m ready to share my toys again.
