pasithea: glowing girl (Default)
Last Wednesday night, I set out on a road trip with [livejournal.com profile] centauress and [Bad username or site: @ livejournal.com] to visit Centauress's mother and sister in Portland. We got off to a bit of a late start, didn't really get out of San Jose until close to 9PM. Traded drivers and drove all night.

Long and not really very interesting )

TWU got shuffled around recently and when that happened, my scripts all died. Heh. This is hardly surprising. I write them around 1994 before there was a CPAN library or anything of that nature. They were written in tcl-expect. ^_^

So.. Anyhow... I banged together some PHP scripts real quick to get my animation directory viewable again. It's pretty crap code and seems to sort things in a completely random order BUT it more or less works.

http://circle.twu.net/animate/ if you're interested.

One of these days, I need to decide what to keep and what to chuck and move the good stuff off to youtube or something. Part of me just can't quite give up my animations from 1990 done on a 286 no matter how bad they are.

Back by popular demand one request...

The altered Archie Art Archive. http://www.twu.net/~squirrel/comic.cgi?LIB=archie&ACTION=bgn

... Wait WAIT!!! I can explain!!!

Before you shun me, shun [livejournal.com profile] paka and [livejournal.com profile] prickvixen

Okay... It might have been my idea... And I may have bought the comics, supplied the beer, and the studio space but... I had my hand bandaged up at the time. I didn't draw much of this...

Anyhow... The idea was to re-badge 'good wholesome' Archie comics into Tank-Girl like comics. In the end, this ended up really just amounting to a bunch of poop jokes. So... In retrospect, we hit the mark. Anyhow. This is what happens when you turn 3 bored artists loose on 3 dollars worth of bad Archie comics. Fuck the comics code. :)

Archie is the epitomy of conservative crap. It's filled with misogyny and gender stereotypes, weak writing, and bad art. In the 1950's, real comics were banned in the US thanks to McCarthy and his band of neo-nazi crap peddlers. Archie still proudly bears the "Approved by the comic books code" label on the front page, though luckily for us, the 60's and 70's brought a backlash of underground comics which were made for an adult audience. Defacing this stuff was puerile and childish. We had a blast. :)
