I made a short stop motion film with photos for the 10c avocado pit contest.
You can see my entry here:

It was the first time ever that I made such a thing, so its still a bit bumpy and rough...but I kind of like it that way.

Let me know what you think of it...please...!!

    Very nice! love the song and the technique, did you use analoque pictures or not? Sorry but I fail to find the meaning or idea behind the burnning avacado tho.. The core remains?

    Actually yesterday I was discussing making stop motion clip of our next work, you seen what we made this weekend? If not see: link

    Nice one Obi! Where did you make that? We have got some really cool graffitti going on in Eindhoven. Especially in the so-called Berekuil. They have amazing pieces there now for one of their friends that passed away at a young age. Gives me the chills when I pass by.

    Would be really cool to make a Stop Motion Film of that, Make one and put it here!!!

    Well, an artist should not really tell all ;)...the avocado first tries to protect itself with the white cloth...but then wraps itself up in a newspaper and all the stuff that goes on in the world. The avocado decides to get rid of all the stuff and it all burns away untill nothing is left but its core..or soul...
    It all starts over again because thats how it goes in life...

    However, it can also be that it started all over again bc I didnt have enough frames...;)

    I first thought of just burning the avocado and thought it would burn really well bc it is so fat...but it didnt at all. I wanted it to burn untill the pit would fall out,but nope...

    Aha now I get it, I wondered what the Volkskrant was doing in there!

    The piece is made in Zuiderpark Den Haag near the stadium. We are planning on doing a number of walls of fame on other cities this spring / summer, I'll put Eindhoven on the list and let you know, k?

    Often walls that are dedicated to someone are breathtaking. I dedicated one too some years ago to a good friend we lost along the way, eh. Not that mine is breathtaking, but I put quite some effort in it, I focus on form and colour. Most people identify with carachters etc.

    Ohh, that one is very cool tooo! You should do a PJ one in Nijmegen to welcome the boys!

    Kushikushun means "lets be happy together" in Quechua (Andean language). I have done fieldwork in the Peruvian Highlands and the ppl there always found it so funny when I said that to them. I knew some more Quechua, but cant remember it all anymore. Oh yeah "Imataq Hutinki?"...means what is your name?...
