mushin

hey guys, for those who missed it, here's a recap at ogden sensei's demonstration of mushin. it was pretty cool, and bless technology i was able to capture the moment! the one thing you might need to play the file is divx, which are files that helps your computer to view certain video files. the files are free for download and can be obtained from www.divx.com. alternatively, i'll leave the original 3gp file which can be opened via quicktime, which is another free player for download at the apple site under quicktime.

other than that, it was cool working with you guys, and i hope to see you around!

the file is called "ogden.avi" or "ogden.3pg". enjoy!


ps. anyone graduating this fall? just curious if i'll know anyone at the ceremony :)

Presentation

as per orla's request for the notes for the unacedemic presentation i did today, here's a link to them. there are two files, the document file contains the dialogue and lyrics and is named as such; the pdf file is a set of notes i didn't print out for everyone, as i was going to use it as my own set of notes. needless to say, i didn't really stick to my notes, but what can i do about it now.

for those interested, i've also upped the songs as well, so for those interested/curious you can listen/follow along with the translations.

like i said in class, i didn't really like "lies", but "feel" is good :)

hehe
