The Dreaming: Preview of Book 2!

To Marcella: I have an email from Marcella, asking me to reply, but unfortunately I can’t because you didn’t give a valid email address. Anyway, I hope you get outta your troubles soon.

“The Dreaming” vol2 is coming out on the 7th November in stores, though for some reason it’s already available at Amazon.com. It also seems to be already out in some bookstores. I thought I’d jump in on the fun, and release the first chapter of book2 for a preview, both on my website at at my new DeviantArt account. Now, there’s no reason why a single person should have a personal website, a livejournal, and a DevArt account – how many things can I manage anyway – but I was convinced otherwise by a Canadian cosplayer at Supanova last weekend. It seems that DevArt is a good place to dump all the doodles I do that I don’t post up on my site or LJ.

 

A Real Interesting Music Clip: My musician friend Yunyu has done something amazing – she’s got a music video of one of her songs out that is filmed in a way that is quite unusual. Basically, it’s “Live Stop-Motion” – something that combines real film (and real people) with stop-motion techniques. The song is “Lenore’s Song”, and the video was basically made using over 16,000 still photographs, all done by getting the actors and Yunyu to move very slightly while shots are taken of them. And the final effect is interesting and unsettling – as you can see on this YouTube Video.

Anyway, this video has been chosen as a finalist in the Sunscreen festival.
