Some more light, please!

Sunday, November 29th, 2009

Me and my husband just love the lights of candles. Therefore our home is full of candlesticks of all kinds, but it seems there is never enough of them, so I’ve made some more from jars:

It’s easy to do them even without being a decoupage-guru. All you need is a jar, paper napkin with nice design, some C-200 glue and some free time.

Heart-shaped buttons

I made them this summer, while playing with a piece of Cernit clay.
Nice embellishments for gift wrapping or such things…

For the rest of you, enjoy:

We spent the whole Sunday together with Michel, disassembling an old Pentium 2.
I came out with the idea of making a robot figure from computer parts, and he did it nicely, so I am leaving him with the pleasure of tell you all the details in pictures and words later.
The robot was meant to be a very special present for a very special friend and I hope he likes it. ;-)

Inspired by the new opportunities to mess about (I couldn’t resist to try myself), I observed what was left from all of the parts and assembled my own mini-version of a robot, who is curiously looking at me from the desk right now:

The little guy P-2

FYI, he can turn his head and waist on 180 degrees and he is a very friendly one. :-)

Twitter and the treasure hunters online

Saturday, June 27th, 2009

One little bird told me...

Twitter seems like the big fat enemy of the blogging these days… More and more witty thoughts, precious and funny links you can find mostly there. But this is also a good thing, at least in theory: this means, that probably the blogs will start to get filled with less “noise” and with more valuable content from the authors. In theory. ;-)

Very soon I hope I’ll be able to present you with the big changes in molif.com – mostly “the clothes”, but also some part of the functionality, which I want to improve. I am considering to add Twitter updates as well, it seems like a good idea to me.

Recently I found (blameTwitter again) link to animation in YouTube. It was a graduation project of a student from the Ringling College of Arts and Design. Where it’s obviously the students are people with amazing skills, or maybe the teachers are excellent, or maybe both, I don’t know.
Following “related videos”, I spent the whole morning watching short animations. Most of them are great – they show skills, good ideas and talent and some of the things are as good as Disney/Pixar’s.

I have to admit though, that I am not a huge fan of all this 3D hype – and I don’t mean bad for Shrek, but there are just too many animation movies lately, which for me feel distant and cold.
Maybe that’s the reason why I liked mostly this particular video (Author: Lindsey Olivares – great gift she has and amazing skills!):

And since YouTube are getting more nasty lately with their country restrictions, thanks very much, Lindsey, for putting your animation also on Vimeo. :-)

Oh, and here is another beautifully made animation from Lindsey:

Finally!!! Will survive the postponed gig of Depeche Mode, most important now is Dave Gahan to get well. But will look forward for Mike Patton & Co to compensate me!

If somebody still doesn’t know, here is the news.

:-) :-) :-)

(and I love the city of Bourgas so much that I even think of moving there one day)

Have another one, I’ve got excited:

Who cares a lot? We care a lot! :-P
