A bit of personal bragging: DAVID BYRNE CONCERT LAST NIGHT. Those of you who know me in the analog world know my love of the former Talking Heads frontman, so it's no surprise that I would cough up however much I did to sit in the dark and listen to him do his thing. I saw him in '04 in Rome (I think it was the Grown Backwards tour?) and swore I would see him whenever I could. This show was promoting the Everything That Happens Will Happen Today, which I linked to because you can stream the whole album digitally. It's a collaboration with Brian Eno, which meant that they played a selection of old Talking Heads songs which were also a collaboration with Eno. Which means awesomeness. Fantasy-goal of dancing to live performances of Life During Wartime, Houses In Motion, The Great Curve and Once In A Lifetime fulfilled.

I think I have mentioned my lack of funds on this blog. I've decided to use this time to make a short animation along the lines of the squid animation I did in college (which I perennially lose every time a computer dies and therefor cannot link to). I am going to animate the man in a ditch drawings into a short piece.

I decided this when I woke up this morning. I have my best ideas before noon.
