Awesome Iggy Pop interpretation of the famous Les Feuilles Mortes French song; the  lyrics are by the sublime poet Jacques Prévert, the original music was composed by Joseph Kosma, but the most famous version is probably the one by Yves Montand.

I really don’t have enough spare time to look at all the fancy SPAM comments and pings that come floating here in the queue.
I’m really sorry if some proper comment or ping will be trashed but I’ll completely clean the queue: you know that  “Delete All Spam” magic button.
I’m going to click it every time I’ll be back at my Dashboard.

So if you don’t see your contribution appear here then contact me directly and I’ll decide if I can set you as a trusted one.

Then… thanks a lot for all the bombing SPAM you guys still continue to post to the stopping queue of this blog!
Is this good?
Do you like to send useless stuff?
Are you happy?
Are you proud?

Just saying to myself: “Go to hell, you all… idiotic guys!”

Render Flam3 Padding XForms is a unique feature that I introduced in the script version 1.3.7 (04 November 2008). It was mainly coded to adjust some quirks related to the Morph animation type so the user can have a better control of the whole morphing process but it can also affect Edge and Sheep ones.

Why I’m talking about it?
I’ve had no feedback about it (I’m not blaming anyone) but the script has some potential that lays underneath the surface and the current preliminary documentation doesn’t help at all (I’ll work on it as soon as possible too).
So I was just guessing: “Had someone tried it at all?”. Who knows…

Four simple video examples can maybe show how Padding XForms changes the animation motion.

Just a freestyle and nonsense design or simply a codswallop just for fun!

I Want To Go To The Beach is a great new song by Iggy Pop released in the new PRELIMINAIRES record.

It’s a meditative and soft piece guided by a sliding guitar and the piano while the lyrics flow, opposed to the music as everyone could expect, pouring out of the peculiar Iggy’s rude style. The world as it really is!
