The Swimming Pool Cetacean

We all have seen the whale in the swimming pool. Remember the ones who swim very slowly in any random direction in the pool. Harmless and very peaceful other than the fact that they kill the flow of your laps. When you bump into them they will just smile... they are so it is not easy to go around them... and with the way they swim you can't even go below them.

I'm the whale here because I'm working on my own stuff and everyday there is so much stuff coming out there.

Future Code & Narrative Abyss

"So you are trying to say you are not from the future?" "Well eh... yes... and no... I am a code. A code from the future, but I am of this present."

Extract from a story I recently wrote... wondering how to publish the whole story, eventually I might just end up writing it down.

Martian Gender Politics

My roommate was reading this hideous book, "Men Are from Mars and Women Are from Venus," which inspired me to make this sketch. Every aspect that he shared about this book made me gag. So why not make a gagable animation?

All men from Mars and for some reason women are shielded by the influence of Mars. I wonder what planet is assigned to non-binary people and cats?

Men are from Mars, they receive messages from Mars through their antennas

Traffic Surfing

When I travel for work, I don't always have a vehicle in different cities. I end up being faster when everyone is stuck in traffic. What I mean by "traffic" here is everyday life—the routine of waiting one behind the other, and the fact that all work has to be done in the same routine.

Website Construction

Unfortunately, I took the long way and decided to build my own website instead of hiring someone to build it for me. There was only one catch: I don't know programming.

So it has taken the better part of free time learning to code, and now I can say with confidence that the website will be coming soon. Till then you can see this GIF

Floating Heads & Inner Voices

The Random Animation Defense

"Are you an animator? Then why do you do random animations?" Me: "I don't see talking dogs."

Whether they're available as NFTs or simply floating in the digital abyss of the internet, these animations document not just technical development but the ongoing attempt to make meaning from the everyday absurd. Which might be, after all, the most human project of all.
