Made a video again :P...another fake Parashi Opening: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SGa8pPlOxuQ
It's really choppy and suuuuuper scribbly because I took like 30 seconds to draw each frame. Please fill in the gaps and gloss over the art with your wonderful imagination! I made it in Windows Movie Maker which is an absolutely evil program =o=
I'll try to fix up the ugly pictures and maybe add some color when I have time, and reupload another version later :b (don't know when though.) For now feel free to watch this one and laugh at it huhuhu

Eurovision nightGot myself some ice cream and will be making myself compfy on the sofa so I'm ready for the big, glittery, horrible music, camp, pointless politics, drama that is eurovision. It never disappoints me.

Sadly I will be alone for this one. Matt had to do a concert he didn't want to do, so I will be live tweeting (humonlazydiva) my impression of the whole shebang.

The Echo chamber dilemmaThe promise of the Internet was that unlimited information and experiences would draw us together. But instead it seems to have driven us apart.
For years I've observed this behavior but haven't been able to vocalize it correctly. Originally I called the behavior of collective opinions as "the hive mentality" of the Internet. But that wasn't exactly right and I often got called out on it. The most prominent example was when I made a comic about a guy disagreeing with opinions and being shouted at till he remained quiet, eventually fading into the background with everyone else. The consensus of that comic was that if you disagree with someone you aren't bullied into not speaking, but instead are free to go someplace else where people who do agree with you exist. And you know what? That wasn't what i was trying to convey, but is sadly true. The Internet is not a hive mind. It's many tiny pocket echo chambers of mutual agreements.
And this is becoming a growing problem, I think, because n

Shall We Catch Up?

Kiriban! Hit me up with a screenshot of my page if you get the 40,000th's pageview!

It's been about three weeks since we last chatted, hasn't it? I've missed you all dearly~

The operation went well--liver surgery, it was--and I am ~~slowly~~ successfully getting better.

As I'm playing Red Dead Redemption, I'm realizing that recovery is insultingly faster in video games... :T I mean, John Marston gets shot in the liver at the beginning of the game, and he's running around breaking in wild stallions within a week.

Umm, cowboy? I couldn't even walk by myself until now. OTL

Even drawing's taking a lot out of me right now.

Can't do my 8-hour Photoshopping sessions anymore. And I'm almost always tired. =_=;

I guess that's where I am right now. Sort of chilling here in physical limbo and hoping your lives are a little more colorful than mine. x'D

Now, I'm tired of talking to about myself, but maybe you're feeling a little talkative today? So, how are you doing? <3

Not the best condition to be in but glad to hear it went well, take the time to recover <D don't go wild in the west yet, I'll transfer some hp and mana if its a game~
To ramble, I just opened your link to that horror manga. I stopped after some stories

because its getting dark here so short but so scary.....thanks anyway xD will resume, maybe...im weak at heart lol
Hoping to hear more good news, get hyper and artsy soon

*Emruki Oct 24, 2010

LOL, thank you~ your generosity will not be forgotten! *D*

Oh my goodness. x'D Well, don't worry. A few more horror stories, and I'm sure your heart will be as tough as nails! >D

By the way, I just visited your site! I had no idea you did such adorable animations.

The Kites animation was very touching. <333

~hakumo Nov 9, 2010

ayayaya how embarrassing the old animation >_> _{but I did think it was fun at the time, sooo Thank yoouuuu}
and no, I haven't resume the manga lol

~marikurai Oct 20, 2010

Yay! I'm glad to hear that you're up and about (sort of). Don't worry, you'll soon be a typical artistic insomniac in no time. This time down is probably doing your eyes a great favor... maybe they wont get strained from looking at a screen all the time. Read a book! Sleep a lot!

But do keep drawing!

My life is colorful. Clashing colors sometimes, but mostly complementary.

*Emruki Oct 20, 2010

LOL, now I'm playing video games and going online. OTL But there was a week when I was truly resting... It was so boring! OTL

I praise you for using the correct spelling for "complementary!" :'D It's become a pet peeve of mine since art school.

I will write you a letter soon. x'D But my life has been rather plain so far.

~marikurai Oct 21, 2010

I don't think I've ever rested... it would drive me mad(der)! Solitary confinement would kill me pretty quick.

Thanks, but it may have been a fluke. My spelling is iffy. It took me a long time to be able to spell tomorrow, and I still can't spell "origional" or "definately" half the time. In 6th grade, I got out of a spelling bee on the word "bonus." Do you get "complimentary?"

Write whenever you feel like it, but if you just want to draw random doodles and send them away, that's more than acceptable. I'll be excited for whenever I get it!

*Emruki Oct 24, 2010

I hear they'll give you pencil and paper in solitary confinement. x'D Sounds like a good working environment, eh? No distractions whatsoever!

"Complimentary," in my experience, means some type of positive feedback? xD I got out on a tough word in an elementary spelling bee... it still pisses me off because both finalists couldn't spell "veil," and the spelling bee went into overtime. orz (On the brighter side, I learned a huge chunk of my vocabulary from that experience. x'D)

I'm sending you London, Jack, and Jill. ;D

~marikurai Oct 26, 2010

Wow, then I might be okay... so long as it's more than one piece of paper... No, I would probably still go crazy. I can't have civilized conversations with myself.

Cool! I've learned something new and,

SQUUEEEEEE! I am now ridiculously excited!

~myman88 Oct 18, 2010

It sounds AMAZINGLY FANTASTIC, and you should ENJOY it more instead of studying our butts off like the rest of us.

*Emruki Oct 19, 2010

FINE. I WILL. >:C
