Prada's Trembled Blossom
http://window.org.nz/
I thought this was full of amazing beautiful images and colours. However, there were a couple of things which bugged me.
For starters, I hate that fashion essentially was all it was about. I really liked it up until she got the dress, I would have expected that she would be gifted something mysterious and beautiful, not a dumb dress. I thought it made it incredibly lame that this androgynous "cyber woman"'s only purpose in this amazing world which was blooming around her was to find a fucking bag. To put what in I wonder? Her lippy and wallet? Ooh but where does she find this wallet? What magical creature will turn into a wallet for her?
Another thing... I thought the animation of the figure was pretty average. See Advent Children: ( I know it's not the same style but the animation is fantastic)
Sadly, after the clip ended, I was left feeling pretty bummed out by fashion. It had potential.. If only it had nothing to do with "OH my GOSH! BAGS and SHOOOEES!!" Come on!
I couldn't help thinking about how laughable it will be in the future, possibly in ten years or less when both fashion and computer graphics have moved on by miles....
I really would like to see some of the concept art for this. I appreciate that the artists involved are incredibly talented, I just wish those fashion wankers didn't have anything to do with it.

What I think about computers.
I think they are neat. I can't wait until I can plug my brain into the internet and be a ninja.
If computer technology keeps improving at this rate....
It is highly likely that in the future a program will be created which could almost exactly simulate reality... or past reality...or even remove the boundary between real and simulated. After all, we have no real way to prove that we aren't living in a "real" world. Ahhh that funny question of what is "real". Fuck!
So we can't be sure that we aren't actually just a bunch of code in an incredible computer which is constantly able to update itself and "trick" us into thinking we are actually living in a "real world".
It is very, very possible. And YOU know it @_@
