Favourite photographs from Flickr

I decided to give Flickr a try in Octomber this year. Since then I uploaded about 110 photographs and, as time was on my side, I gathered a list of favourites from other members. It is not a large list, maybe you would like to check it out here.

Film no.2 soundtrack

Film no.2 is a short movie by Matthew Clayfield (website/blog here). It features the "Looking Through Glass" song as soundtrack, from the "Daniel Dorobantu : The Citizen" release. The movie is available for download here and the song here. About this film, Matthew says : "When a film student is feeling lonely and depressed, not to mention untalented and overweight, there's only one thing for him to do, and that's pull a Fellini and make a film about it. This is one such film by one such student".
Enjoy!

Thy Veils : Dawn and Furtherance DVD

Started in May 2003, this DVD will contain about 1 hour of Thy Veils songs from the first 3 albums only, in 5.1 surround sound format together with videos. Photography, animation and filmed images were used in creating this visual dimension of Thy Veils. Some previews from this DVD can be downloaded here : www.thyveils.com/video.
