Thank yous.

The möbius one was originally goin to be called möbius trip, and have a car driving round the Möbius strip, endlessly, forever.

But then once if made the möbius it a) was too flimsy to stick a car to, and b) looked a bit like a dinosaur or something. So I had it ice skating around in figures of eight on some pages of writing instead

Just like dinosaurs do

Yes, I remember that happening in the film Jurassic (writing) Pad!!!!

I've slightly edited this now so it no longer has a single frame of my finger poking in unwanted at the side. and also its a bit bigger

big enough that you might be able to read the words of my story (they aren't very interesting)

Hooray

You haven't experienced the möbius cartoon til you've watched it in the original klingon

That mobius one is lovely.

The match one bothers me a bit though, because surely the black bit should get longer rather than the match just getting shorter, and I know it doesn't really matter but I can't help pointing this out I am sorry.

Post by **dng** » Sat Apr 03, 2021 12:23 pm

i have never actually seen a match

abandoned snake sequence

(some abandoned snake action that wasn't finished because i realised halfway through i didn't know how to animate the end of the sequence, which was the entire point of the animation in the first place)

And a proper animation now

The Waking Dream is delish, as is Zeitpunkt.

A stereo HURRAH is in order.

When I use a post-it note, I write "PUT BIN OUT" and place it on the inside of my front door to remind me to put the bin out the night before collection day.

My life is a series of such adventures.

Alos, that is beautiful, david.

Post by **dng** » Tue Apr 06, 2021 9:02 pm

97% of my notes are writing lists of things i will definitely make which then i never actually make

Post by **dng** » Tue Apr 06, 2021 9:03 pm

basically a post it note is the tombstone of an idea

Post by **vom** » Tue Apr 06, 2021 9:13 pm

That might be my favourite one yet, it's wonderful
