Sita Sings The Blues !

Nina Paley, using 'Creative Commons license' is allowing people to watch her indi film "Sita Sings The Blues" .Don't loose this chance and go watch it, you can download it in various formats and sizes (including HD, use a nice download manager for this ! ) from here. It's said she have completed it alone in a small apartment, with very limited funding's ! But, just a word of caution, keep your mind and heart open while watching this film, and don't watch if you are a Hindu Extremist ! For me it was nice experience, just don't want it to show to my mother :) Go watch !

unrequited

...ha ha Some crap i did. flash. entirely spontaneous stuff..580 frames in 6 hours..No thoughts,No planning, No artificial flavors involved. free flow of mind , a lil bad mood ...and some flashcs3 :) " And the Nightmares are back... i really thought she had left me for good, then... i think i was wrong... i run and run amok.. they still chase me like there is no tommorow...i flee to escape... but the impetus is so hard that it pushes me over the edge... " ".....but who am i fooling... no wonder even when i travel across seven lands, your love looks upon me like death... i don't want to bear your love and live till i age and wither off... let me be crucified... for you and millions of other unrequited love... " lemme know if u like it :) i don't mind if u don't :D it's nothing great :D
