Virus

Today I spent my day at work writing and receiving mails. Pretty much this is all I did: read, type, send, read, type, send. By modern standards this was a very productive day, I distributed work all over the place, gave answer to some pending questions, stated my opinion and read what everybody else had to say. I organized some meetings and trips and rescheduled everything that presented a conflict under the criteria of Outlook's calendar. Read, type, send, read, type, send.

So yes, a waste of a day.

While leaving the officeI thought that it would be great to create a virus that automatically inserts a star system type of rating at the end of any mail and the phrase "please help us improve by rating this mail".  The screen would then be blocked until you do the rating, at which point a response mail is automatically generated and sent to the original sender with a text explaining that his score in the last mail he sent has been rated at whichever level, and on the bottom a new request saying "please help us improve by rating this mail"...

If anybody is keen of virus coding, feel free to steal de idea.

Simply Milo Manara

While on vacation near Cadiz (Spain) I found in a small market a whole bunch of issues that were published by NORMA Editorial in 1999 containing MILO MANARA's work. Issues 9 to 11 cover the full INDIAN SUMMER story, which I bought for a couple of Euros.

Now, this is significant since this story is not only in black and white, but also it has almost no shadows. It is pretty much just virgin line work but at the same time it needs nothing else to be a complete work of art, a masterpiece of story telling.



I am trying to put together my first sequentials, and passing from pencil to line work is as far as I can take my current skills for now. I have done two very short stories and for me they look unfinished, lacking the shades and color, but the Maestro MILO gives me new hope.

I want to be just like Fernando

I just bought ZORA, a comic from 1980 by FERNANDO FERNANDEZ, and man, this thing is just too good: a psychedelic retro space feel, lovely art, great story line. This guy is awesome!
