    My latest written stuff is at myspace.com/bojo or Livejournal.com/users/danimatian

    I am a graduate of Grand Valley State University's Film/Video program.

    I recently moved to Chicago, IL and I am exploring many new film/video/animation opportunities there. More on this story as it develops!

    Layla, and other assorted songs I require to live my life.

    the 3m:10s piano moment of Layla always gets me. Clapton/ Allman guitars wailing for Pattie, I am in love with you but you are George's girl

    I was 9 in 1985 and I figured out how to skip to precisely this part of the song on the record player whenever I needed to have a moment to find myself when something was getting me down. I didn't even know what the song was about yet but I knew there was something special about the music.

    We had a shitty record player next to the IBM XT and I delved into my parents record collection because the songs on the radio didn't speak to me this way. I would play my CGA 4 color computer games and get lost in the music of the 1950s, 60s and 70s. That corner the computer was in became home base long before 1987 when I installed the modem and started talking to people online.

    Later it would be Strawberry Fields Forever or the opening of Kid A "Everything in its right place" that put a wrong day right again.

    Music is so powerful. Songs take you out of the moment and put you somewhere else when you need to be somewhere else.

    ANIMATIONS = DANIMATIANS

    Most of you have informed me that I've MISSPELLED Animation in the word Danimatian.

    Allow me to fill you in...

    Animation is what I studied in school. When I animate, I called it the finished product a Danimation. Somewhere along the line I substituted the "o" in animation for an "a." Why did I do this? Because I am Armenian, and most Armenian names end in -ian or -yan. Hence, an Armenianified Animation is an Animatian. An Armenianified Animation by me is a Danimatian. Now you know.

    Ok, so why is this site called www.zoomis.com/~elvis?
