In 1889, William Butler Yeats met Maud Gonne, an actress and revolutionary, who became his great love for the next 20 years. She was the inspiration of his life and his imagination. However, he never received her love in return.
He wishes for the Cloths of Heaven
had i the heavens’ embroidered cloths,
enwrought with golden and silver light,
the blue and the dim and the dark cloths
of night and light and the half-light,
i would spread the cloths under your feet:
but i, being poor, have only my dreams;
i have spread my dreams under your feet;
tread softly because you tread upon my dreams.
The short has been made by Heebok Lee and showcased all around the world, from One Dot Zero to Siggraph. And it’s great.
The music comes from Escaflowne original sound track by Hajime Mizoguchi and Yoko Kanno. Voice by David Winters.
Lee has a few more mov’s on his page
You can watch the video fullscreen if you leftclick into the movie window – there is a quicktime mov on his side – quality is much better of course…
Took a few pictures. My 1st try with Apple iWeb – does not really work for me – but if you are not into html – it is worth to give it a shot!

This just in from our field correspondent from the “REAL WORLD”: Instead of sitting at a traditional conference table, we took the chairs out of the room and ran meetings while standing on our feet. Well, the length of the meetings DRASTICALLY dropped, because people didn’t want to stand for long. Meetings went from 30-60 minutes to roughly 1/2 of that while still delivering meaty content.
latest word is: the cops in Pai are pulling people off of the street for random piss tests. Weird, the police chief changed, and apparently they want Pai as a premiere weekend resort for Thai people, so out with the rif-raf, they want all of the hippie types gone, permanently. They want the image of the place changed. So goes planet.
dave send me this today and chriss is confirming that.
