From Industrial Design to User Experience
I was standing at a double water fountain the other day filling my water bottle when a gentleman approached and started drinking from the adjacent fountain. When he pressed the actuator, my water pressure dropped dramatically. Instinctually, I reacted and moved my bottle to follow the water. As he repeatedly hit the actuator to take individual sips, the randomly changing water pressure sent the water from my fountain over my bottle, onto my hand and arm.
Frustrated and irritated, I wondered who didn't consider this phenomenon in the product development cycle. Why didn't anyone account for this shared experience? After all, these two individual units obviously shared a supply line. In retrospect, I realize I could have gotten even with a bit of actuator pressing myself.
Who should have thought about the possibility of water spraying everywhere and who should have thought about me having this terrible experience?
In this article, I want to share some thoughts about user experience design, UX practice today, and its parallels to industrial design practice. In efforts to continue the conversation about the true fit of UX as a growing specialization, I will attempt to position it within the landscape of established design disciplines. I will also to raise questions and considerations to entertain as UX emerges from its software-related origins and grows into strategic leadership across design disciplines. This is neither a manifesto nor a hard-lined stance on UX; rather just some ideas to help carry the collective discussion forward.
Human Centered Design in the Rear View Mirror
Let me start with a slightly controversial statement that I drop on my students each fall during the introduction to the sophomore industrial design studio: all design is human-centered. If it's not human-centered, then it's not design. If it's not design, it's something else and we don't teach that here.
As you might imagine, half of the students have no idea what I mean and the other half usually aren't listening. Throughout the semester we continually explore the relationship between people and objects. We consider physical qualities, ergonomics, semantics, and form language. We also consider aesthetics and beauty using Gestalt principles. Fairly early on, though, each student realizes that the product forms they are creating can effectively take almost any shape. They wrestle with finding the correct form as if there is a magical curve they can pull and the form will snap into beautiful ergonomic shape. So to guide students in form development, I ask, "What impact will this object have? What do you intend it to do in someone's life?"
Immediately they answer, "Well, it should be ergonomic and easy to use." Then I press further and say, "Okay, you're a designer, you're expected to deliver something that is ergonomic and easy to use, and it has to be beautiful too. So, what will this thing do once you bring it into the world?" As you might guess, the students catch on quickly and respond with, "It should have some significance to the user and to enhance their lives in some way." Eureka!
In their minds they shift their thinking from making things to designing things that help facilitate actions, behaviors and experiences. It's a fundamental shift to consider an object's form to be in service of something much greater than its own visual image. This is the core of human-centered design—considering the relationship of people with their products in the context of their activities. It's also the core of experience design.
The term "human-centered design" is interpreted today more strictly as ergonomics, thereby representing an older, more limited viewpoint on designing. But this is just a question of semantics; the perspective of "user experience" has been here longer than the terminology and literature indicates.
Today, design isn't design without a concern for human experience. The pervasiveness of experience-driven design has made "experience" the new hot buzzword. But is it really new?
It's 1964 All Over Again
I recently had the privilege of spending a day with a 1965 graduate from the Industrial Design program at Carnegie Tech (which is now the School of Design at Carnegie Mellon University). As we walked through the undergraduate studios, we chatted about the concerns of today's designers and how our curriculum is shaped to address aspects of holistic design practice.
We also talked about "user experience" as a key concern in designing products and how we have shifted our focus across our undergraduate industrial design curriculum to be driven by human experience. It was at this point that he said with a smile on his face, "so nothing has really changed." This threw me for a loop; 2010 has to be very different than 1964, right? The concerns for today's designer are different than those of decades past.
But apparently back in the 1960s, the industrial design program began running studio projects that were based on designing for human experience. And although the hallmark of industrial design has been the styling of everyday objects, the belief that industrial design is only concerned with styling and manufacturing was as much a misconception in the 1960s as it is today.
As we talked further, I learned that one project in particular, led by Professor Richard Felver, looked at designing the interior of an automobile that could travel 100 mph. After all, in the future cars would surely do 100 mph. The project, named "Man at 100 mph," was to design the technology, information, seating, safety, controls, form, and amenities of a production automobile. Students considered two things: 1. you're doing 100 mph! and 2. people will experience very different feelings, emotions, behaviors, and social dynamics in such a vehicle that could travel that fast. By today's accounts, this is experience design.
When I went to design school in the early 1990s, it was common practice to design for the impact that the object/artifact/system was intended to have in a person's life, but we never referred to this specifically as the user's experience, and we certainly never used the term experience design. It was just designing for people. So, perhaps design is now a ubiquitous practice and the social concerns of product development that are so rooted in the fundamentals of industrial design practice are now being heralded, identified, and championed in other fields.
So, who owns UX? Should anyone? Should it be a discrete subset of design? Can industrial design reclaim ownership of this core aspect of its discipline?
The UXing of Design Practice
If UX has always been part of industrial design, why has it taken so long to permeate through the design landscape and why are we now creating new specialized fields within design practice? Is this a case where other disciplines are extracting key principles of design and rearticulating them in a contemporary context? Perhaps this is a result of UX advocates and practitioners coming from radically disparate fields, many rooted in software, computer science, and HCI, and are newly discovering the depth of methods, theory, and practice of traditional design.
A quick scan of the Wikipedia page on UX reveals, in part, the following definition:
User experience highlights the experiential, affective, meaningful and valuable aspects of Human-Computer Interaction (HCI) and product ownership, but it also covers a person's perceptions of the practical aspects such as utility, ease of use and efficiency of the system. User experience is subjective in nature, as it is about an individual's feelings and thoughts about the system. User experience is dynamic, because it changes over time as the circumstances change.
UX in general is concerned with the situation around products and systems that affect the formation (or design) of the product or system. In a sense, you could argue that UX is more concerned with the situation than the product itself. This is important because UX practitioners are therefore concerned with holistic views on product ecosystems and user-product relationships.
There are certainly better sources for learning about UX than Wikipedia, but this is the most easily accessible profile for the practice. The top two Google search results for "UX" are the two Wikipedia pages on "user experience design" and "user experience."
In today's landscape, UX is becoming differentiated (or specialized) from established design practices of industrial design, communication design, and interaction design by its holistic viewpoint and strategic outlook. This positions the UX designer as the strategic/visionary driver and can marginalize traditional designers as tactical form-givers, pixel-pushers, and stylists. This is dangerous as it shifts the perception of traditional (ID, CD, IxD) designers to that of cake decorators who fashion only the visual appearance of artifacts in precision and beauty. All surface, no substance.
The UX practitioner today is very different from a couple years ago as UX designers aren't specifically tethered to software or limited to information architecture. I believe a virtue of UXD is in the focus on the role a product/system plays in someone's life. The de-emphasis from "thingness," or the "it," positions UX concerns on the activities, actions, interactions, relationships and interconnections of the product/system–the strategic "ing."
As someone deeply concerned with the formal qualities of objects, this is somewhat blasphemous. Why divorce the "ing" from the "it"? In today's design practice, designing happens through interdisciplinary collaboration, but as I will touch upon later, the future of UX may involve more integration. So the UX designer specializes in the "ing," but what about the gulf between the strategic planning and the concept development? Who bridges that gap? Where does interaction design fall in relation?
UX will be the death of UX
I recently saw an episode of That 70s Show where Kelso (the Ashton Kutcher character) tries to understand what his father does for a living. Trying to put it in the simplest of terms, his father describes his work as "throughput." He's not the originator of ideas and doesn't generate the input, and he doesn't craft the output; rather he receives the input and gets it ready for output. Seems like he was actually describing a process similar to (design) synthesis, although described with great comedic timing. So how do you describe UX practice?
Industrial design has the exact opposite problem. The tangible artifacts of designing are so critical to the survival and perception of the discipline that the thinking, research, and UX principles that created those artifacts are often never seen. As stated earlier, this is the hallmark of the profession. Historically, industrial designers have had a very difficult time shaking off the impression that they're only stylists. A March 20, 2000 issue of Time Magazine proclaimed on its cover, "The Rebirth of Design: Function Is Out, Form Is In." True, we love forming things and we do "decorate cakes," but the deeper driving concerns of industrial designers are never known.
UX is a nebulous term much like "design." It is often interpreted in a multitude of ways and practiced in a widely varied fashion. Whitney Hess' 10 Most Common Misconceptions About User Experience Design introduces some good themes for UX practitioners that can also be applied to other areas of design—just drop the UX and replace it with any other design discipline. Ms. Hess consolidates viewpoints and perspectives across the UX landscape and provides a must-read if you're introducing the idea of UX to a non-design audience.
As UX and UXD migrate toward the strategic center of design practice, UX practitioners run the risk of becoming marginalized as specialists equipped to handle only the front end of the design development process. What is currently missing in much of UX practice is the delivery of a concrete tangible artifact—a synthesized outcome. Yes, proposals, system architecture, interaction schemas, profiles, and design criteria are all valued components of the design process, but to what end?
Can UX designers decorate the cakes that they bake? Or can they only write the instructions for baking a cake? Or can some continue to write the instructions without actually baking and decorating at all? Perhaps the immediate future for UX may be to deliver on the "it" to back up the "ing." Maybe more UX-titled designers will be recruited from traditional design disciplines. Or perhaps UX is a fad that will not reach maturity and will come and go like fashion. A similar problem afflicts "green" design; its popularity and catchy name may end up curtailing its impact.
We do know that the concerns for the human experience are deeply rooted in design practice, and this will persist. However, the term UX may end up doing itself in. Perhaps it will be replaced by HeX (human experience) or some other equally obscure terminology.
A Brief Comment on Design in the 21st century
Terry Irwin, former principal and creative director of the San Francisco office of MetaDesign and now head of the School of Design at Carnegie Mellon, has adamantly stated that this is the century for design. No other discipline is as equipped to address current problems, forecast a new future, and shift conventional thinking, behaviors, and understanding of the world.
UX represents a uniquely orthogonal viewpoint to any business model and product development process as it provides sight across landscapes, domains, and silos. This is an important aspect for design to redefine itself for the 21st century and to articulate all of the core practices, methods, and thinking that have made design integral to the advancement of civilization. We are the shapers of the modern world. UX has the opportunity to shift the focus on the socio-emotional issues as the main drivers for designing and let the other parts fall in service to these humanistic ideals.
As we trek toward 2011, the articulation of design and user experience will continue to shift from design as an entity (the "it"), to designing as a behavior (the "ing"). It's really the act of designing that matters, so we should focus on designing rather than design.
Closing Thoughts
I believe that UX in its current incarnation is not entirely new, but shows promise to provide a critical link between design and the rest of the world. Businesses are spinning up UX departments at an incredible rate thinking this will be the answer to slumping sales or poor product performance. Maybe this is the cure. Realistically, it's likely the first part in acknowledging that consideration for the people using, purchasing, interacting with, and identifying with the products and systems we create is extremely important. It seems that the concerns of the designer are now coinciding with equitable business models.
The UXing of the articulation of design is new. This new language and expression of the impact of design provides the invitation for others to connect with design and see clearly what design can do for them. But we have to deliver good, human-centered, experiential, sustainable, ergonomic, beautiful forms. As professor Joe Ballay said at the Industrial Design 75th Anniversary at CMU:
When I talk to my students about the importance of form and understanding I say, Look, everything in the world from a clump of dirt to the shiniest car has a form. You can't avoid it. It's got a form. It's got a color, it's got a texture. It may as well be the right one. It isn't a question of form, no form, it's a question of which form.

Well your strategy certainly seems to be working for you my friend. I should really think about mimicking or "at least" trying a few of the things you do more often.
I believe that the human gestalt thing is overrated. The use of rapid prototyping technology would be superior in determining the design with ergonomics and functionality included.
Sometimes a new product comes about that has such a unique and superior design, that it completes changes the way we think about that given product. I am looking for examples of new products that have brought about a significant change in the paradigm of what we though the product could be, and would later become the new standard of how that product would be designed. I'd prefer some examples that only occurred in the past 100 years or so.
I really enjoyed reading this article! You really brought up some interesting points concerning product design. When developing a new product (whatever that may be), you have to look at all alternatives, problems and actions -- especially if you want to make money off of said invention. Sure, one can advertise all they want, but the user experience is key to a products success. If it doesn't work properly, you need to invest more time.
Anyway, thanks for sharing your thoughts!
I really appreciate your post and I think that you are right. I notices that many big corporation this day seem to depending on user experiece to come up with a great product but forgot that good product designer always consider user experience is part of design, however, some user experience try very hard to convience to the company that if the idea is not from the user experience they will be no new product and I think that is wrong because I think the principle of product design is not just about form language but it's also about understanding human factor, some manufacturer technique, trend and user experiences.
Thanks for the article. Very thought provoking. I can't help but feel there's a bit of UX hating going on. Yes, in the perfect world and the scholastic environment, all designers would be concerned with user experience and well versed in basic HCI principles. Reality can be quite different. I'm a CMU CFA grad. I've worked in the UX realm for 12 years. RARELY have I worked with a visual designer who was dedicated to usable design. I often work as the middleman - bridging together designers who want something to look good and developers who just want to get something to work. UCD might be a catchphrase to some but believe me, most of us are dedicated practitioners who do possess particular and valuable skills.
I completely agree
Last year I wrote about this exact problem.
In these discussions people typically focus on the word "Experience" or the phrase "Experience Design". We're missing the elephant in the room ... The "U" in UX stands for User and where does that word come from ... yes, the computing industry.
The discipline of UX does indeed center around human experience, as do many other Design disciplines mentioned in this article. However, it does so in a different medium than those other disciplines - a medium that includes a significant digital aspect.
UX is not replacing anything - its using some of the same, tried and true methods that older design disciplines like industrial design, et al. have used for decades/centuries and using them in a NEW medium. If it feels like UX is "emerging from its software-related origins and growing into strategic leadership across design disciplines." perhaps thats just because a lot of design these days includes a significant digital aspect?
In a culture that equates the word "design" with style and decoration, all related design fields have to contend with the popular impression that they don't deal with anything but, and then have to struggle against being relegated to putting the icing on the final product, no matter whether it's two- or three-dimensional. This is the formidable enemy of design practices, both within and outside the design professions, not an upstart terminology.
Maybe "experience," "user experience," and "UX" are just buzzwords, or maybe they'll persist (didn't "industrial design" have to beat out other competing labels at its formation?) I'm just happy for anything that helps keep the needs of people as a counterweight to the needs of markets, corporations, and bureaucracies. Even as I consider the internal business needs of my client, I always consider myself the advocate for the user/consumer/human/person/, whether explicitly or unspoken. If it helps lend weight to my advocacy, then I'm happy to invite that term into my corner -- remember "plain language" (largely forgotten if you've tried to figure out your health coverage), "design management" (grew up to fill departments in universities) and "usability" (evolved to describe research more specifically, but still useful now as a general approach)?
If you think of buzz as the temporary symptom of some real underlying changes that are occurring in society, then as long as we take account of how those changes affect the field, good solid design practice can survive the trends.
I really like Matt's comment (quite happy somebody made this comment) re: UX was already part of design. UX often feels like it was created for those with out a design background or foundation. There has been a great documentary series running on the BBC recently called "The Genius of Design" and it has been stated there by many known designers that all design is focused on human use and optimizing for it. I am glad that is brought up in this piece as well.
I am continually feeling much like Matt that UX really doesn't add anything that design didn't or shouldn't already have. It just puts a clearer focus on it. I am really fearful of the damage of UX with out the deep understanding of design, which is also founded in deep understanding of the medium and ability to create in that medium.
Across my more than 20 years as a professional I continually witness those who are solid designers not only know their medium and are masters of it, but they also focus on human use and benefit to them based on what they create. It is common to see groups of people come together to create a whole full design perspective where the individuals do not have the breadth and depth needed as individuals.
This is a great article and I share similar experiences. I use to be an industrial Designer 12yrs before, designing cars, bikes and products. Then i migrated from Enterprise apps designer to ecommerce site designer to mobile UX designer. In my experiences i feel that UX field is crowded and diluted with many false designers with no proper education and practical knowledge. This field is more about sales folks then skilled design people. Designing for users was always there in Industrial design. But this "UCD" and all jargons are made famous by UX. I have also noticed all of a sudden, all the industrial design firms and departments have also writing that they follow UCD, as if, it not said, they dont follow.. What a crap
Won't let me edit, but I meant to say "I will NOW make this mandatory reading".
I don't have your articles, but I would be cautious of decontextualizing the terms used in those early readings to other times. Humanism means something completely different today than it did in this pre-Mead/Foucault.
And CMU does have a strong stake in the history of design. It was the 1st major non-art school (technical university) to take on design but swayed severely against form towards function when European schools were just finding a way to strike a balance.

Great thoughts Mark. Loved it. I will not make this mandatory reading for all my students and I loved your opening for your Studio 1. If ya don't mind, I'll borrow that one too!
Matt, totally agree w/ you. As I've stated before When Norman created the concept of "User Experience" to describe his new group's mission in their name, he was really just doing marketing to a bunch of technologists w/o a clue as to what design and usability is.
I do have to caution Mark a bit. I think your generalization about industrial design always being human-centered is a bit off to me. I have seen tons of examples of practice studios where considering the context of use is not in the vocab. There are many where it is, but there are also many where it isn't. This isn't just true of ID but also Graphic Design and Architecture.
I also think you missed the real impetus here for IxD in all this. That as technology has exponentially increased month on month the complexity of the concepts embedded in the every day, we do need new ways of thinking about these things. Applying 1960's practice methods in whole and stopping there to 2010's problems will not get you where you need to go. I don't think you were advocating this, but I do think there is a way to read what you said and get that message, "Of what's old is new again." ... What we are doing now IS very different than the previous generation of designers.

Hi Dave,
Good points. Thanks for the comments.
No, I don't think 2010 is completely 1964 all over again - we're in a different mindset and societal circumstance - but the core concerns are the same. We need to continue to champion them because they can get lost in practice.
What I didn't include in the piece was the other part of the conversation where in 1964, UX was thought to be somewhat novel, but in reality it was 1934 where I found these issues were first documented in our literature at CMU. The early documentation for the founding of the ID program at Carnegie Tech (the first degree-granting program in the US) talks about the advocacy for people and that decoration (or the decorative arts) was not a viable model to pursue. 75 years in and the good stuff from 1934 still persists.
Fantastic essay Mark, UX does seem to be providing a tangible gateway to raising the awareness and importance of design within business. It reminded of the quote - "There's no such thing as no design, only bad design".
Very interesting article.
I am starting to think of "UX" as an imaginary thing. What we're really talking about is good design - industrial design, interaction design, etc. The idea of UX as a design practice has emerged form the computer world because there wan't a solid enough connection to traditional design practice within the software industry.
As people designing software become more self-aware and start to develop a fully realized design practice we need to make sure we're not reinventing the wheel, or breaking up the practice in ways that will be detrimental in the long run (eg designers not coding, or the strict separation of form and function).
Good Design is not just form, and not just function - it's the marriage of the two into a beautiful thing. That thing can be physical, virtual, or beyond!
If all forms of design are concerned with the "user experience" then we need have to stop framing UX as a distinct practice and start thinking about how we make great object, software, and other things for the people that need them.

The most interesting museum of Europe is in the Seaplane Harbour, where the newly opened exhibition in the historical seaplane hangars tells you stories from under the water, on the water and over the water. You can climb into the submarine Lembit, look at the seaplane Short 184, voyage on the icebreaker Suur Tõll and learn about historical vessels or military equipment. Seaplane simulator, diving deep under the water, café Maru and the museum shop are among some of the things waiting for guests. There's a wonderful view of the Port of Tallinn from the Seaplane Harbour.
Europe is generally agreed to be the birthplace of western culture, including such legendary innovations as the democratic nation-state, football and tomato sauce.The word Europe comes from the Greek goddess Europa, who was kidnapped by Zeus and plunked down on the island of Crete. Europa gradually changed from referring to mainland Greece until it extended finally to include Norway and Russia.Don't be confused that Europe is called a continent without looking like an island, the way the other continents do. It's okay. The Ural mountains have steadily been there to divide Europe from Asia for the last 250 million years. Russia technically inhabits "Eurasia".Europe is presently uniting into one political and economic zone with a common currency called the Euro. The European Union originated in 1993 and is now composed of 27 member states. Its headquarters is in Brussels, Belgium.Do not confuse the EU with the Council of Europe, which has 47 member states and dates to 1949. These two bodies share the same flag, national anthem, and mission of integrating Europe. The headquarters of the Council are located in Strasbourg, France, and it is most famous for its European Court of Human Rights. In spite of these two bodies, there is still no single Constitution or set of laws applying to all the countries of Europe. Debate rages over the role of the EU in regards to national sovereignty. As of January 2009, the Lisbon Treaty is the closest thing to a European Constitution, yet it has not been approved by all the EU states. Text by Steve Smith.

Lovely lady
Lotus santal
Love this fragrance, only wish I could purchase this fragrance in a store by me!
Was this review helpful? Yes No
I love this fragrance
The Lotus Santal Fragrance is so sophisticated. I use it as my "Home fragrance" although I have enjoyed the Shower gel. My only request to Thymes is that I wish the candles had more of the Santal fragrance, or should I say that I wish the fragrance was more intense. The candles burn clean and last a long time. Thank you Thymes for coming up with this beautiful fragrance
Trust Your Reviewers!
I purchased the Lotus Santal Candle as a gift for my distant sister for her birthday, along with some other Lotus Santal products. This scent was chosen because there were so many favorable reviews about it. My sister was very complimentary about the gifts and their wonderful fragrance. I will have to order some for myself, now. Thanks reviewers, for your recommendation!
I love ALL the Thymes fragrances, but this one by far is my favorite! Rich and sweet and woody and sexy.. a very relaxing scent that fills the house with warmth and serenity.
I'm burning the candle for a few hours each night, and it helps fill my home with a refreshing woodsy fragrance, which I love, and so does my husband, and friends that visit.

I liked the idea of him being Ma-at-Arms brother and the two of them being at odds. I feel it gave some more depth to both characters.
As for him being Teela's father... I dunno, I would rather it be vauge with just some hints and possiblites
Filmation (Evil warrior turned good)
MYP (Man-at-arms brother, Teelas father)
Other (explain)
What story do you want for Fisto in MOTUC? I have always liked the filmation origin where he was an Evil Warrior of Skeletors before turning good and joining the Heroic Warriors and hope this is what is used in classics as I hated th MAA brother story from MYP but what would others prefer?

I chose Filmation version. I hate when they try to make too many people related to one another in these epic struggles...
"Wheresoever on earth he dwells, man is prey to two weaknesses: the need to pray and the need to love."-Marquis de Sade
"It is not by reasoning or by our understanding that we have received our religion; it is by external authority and command."-Michel De Montaigne
Heretical Vintage Purist and Non-Fan Extraordinaire!
I hate this, too.
But I don't want Fisto being evil, or at odds with any of the Heroic Warriors.
I'd prefer to see him as nomad-like, a general with his own troops/people who had to flee their home village and fight for survival.
I'd love for his people to be somewhat analogous to the Rohirrim for example, and when Fisto and his people happen upon the Eternians we know and love, they join forces to fight an intense battle which leaves Fisto's beloved steed near death.
As a token of appreciation for his support, Man-At-Arms uses all of his skill to give new life to this noble beast . . . in the form of STRIDOR!
MYP version was awful IMO, though.
MAA's brother was bad, "real" huge fist was abysmal.
And Teela's dad would've been even worse.
Not a good Poll
Personally I HATE when bad guys turn good... Always ruins a good bad guy. So I HAD to pick MYP.
However you chose to highlight to the two WORST things about MYP!!!! I liked him being a soldier who was injured. I liked MAA and others thinking he was coward and Deserter, but that it wasn't his fault...
Honestly, I can EVEN tolerate MAA brother... but JUST barely...
Teela's Dad is horrible though.
I choose 'MYP with explaination' for any Mattel reps who read these to get ideas
I agree. Just look at the Star Wars Prequels.
Making him a bad guy first gives him some depth. I don't want him "burning down an orphanage bad" but a guy who gets into league with some people so evil they make him reconsider his life's path.
As much as I dislike the idea of Teela being just a clone, I think I might dislike Fisto being her dad even more.
Other. Make up a new origin for him.
While I don't want him to be Duncan's brother (I REALLY hated it when him and MAA fought while on a mission. Super out of character for MAA.), I don't want him to be a former bad guy unless this aspect was developed further. He was a villain, but we never hear of it again...he might as well have always been a good guy.

Personally, I've never liked either of Fisto's origins.
Dunno why, but I hated "Fisto's Forest" as a kid, and don't like it much now. It seemed like a re-hash of the (great) "He-Man Meets Ram Man!" mini-comic, and I wish they had made that story instead.
As for the 200x origin... well in fairness, I'm not 200x's biggest fan (though I do like some elements of it), but I just never cared for the whole MAA-brother / Teela's father thing. Can't put my finger on why exactly, but I just felt... wrong.

Oh God no... none of this "Teela's father" crap... I hated that idea in MYP's toon! Besides, in this MOTUC cannon, Teela is a clone of the Sorceress which Skeletor is responsible for... so there goes that idea!
This times a million. I hate unnecessary relationships and this one involving Fisto is like Maury Povich territory. Ugh!
I voted for Filmation but it's not gonna happen so yeah...might as well make him a clone, have Evil-Lyn free him from somewhere, or just make him He-Man's weird uncle or something. I mean why not, the more stupid family ties the better right?
Uncle Skeletor being the worst of them all.
Hopefully the MYP one, I never liked the Filmation one. I don't mind huimand MAA being brothers but they don't even have to be that they could have just both been close friends and fought together in the great unrest untill Fisto lost his memory and MAA thought he deserted. However I don't think they shoudl have either way if he's Teela farther, just leave it open.

I like the idea of Fisto being Duncan's brother and I also like the idea of him beginning as a bad dude (but perhaps not a villain, more as someone who bullies people and uses his strength to get his way-a braggart and jerk-similar to Gaston in teh beginning of Beauty and the Beast).
I don't particularly like the idea of him being Teela's father, but I don't think we'll be seeing that in MOTUC.
Not to sound like a creepy cheerleader for Uki, but it's nice to know there is at least one person on this forum who is extremely positive & friendly all the time. I don't think I could be that nice even if you paid me. If we ever give out awards for "forum member of the month", Uki gets my vote. -Mr. Shokoti
I kind of like the idea that he's MAA's estranged brother. Don't like the idea of him being Teela's father tho.. Obviously that's not possible in MotuC tho'.
So, I chose other. Why not take a little bit of everything? Something like:
He used to be MAA's brother-at-arms ( a sort of blood-brother style title that MAA's get), who trained with him under Dekker, but during the great unrest he betrayed the heroes to make a deal with Marzo in order to put an end to the conflict. Of course, it failed, and he took the fall with prison-time. But after being pardoned he left the forces of Eternos all-together.
As such, he's got a bit of a conflict with MAA, who thinks he's still a damn dirty coward.
What do you think, guys??
I chose other, but really I want him to be MAA's brother, but NOT Teela's father.
200X Power Sword, 200X Toon, 200X Continuity.... Yeah, it's all about 200X!!
Man-At-Arm's brother, who was rogue due to his amnesia. That's about all I subscribe to.
I love an all inclusive canon!
I voted other because I like the Idea of Fisto being Man-At-Arms' brother but not Teela's father (which as several others have mentioned, is not possible with Teela being a clone in this cannon).
I protect Simba, his family, and his pride.
The whole Fisto is Teela's Daddy was a misconception due to the bandages. Look at the eyes folks.

This is my thoughts as well. I don't want him as Teela's father either.
In my Personal Canon, Fisto is MAA's brother who was once a highwayman/brigand who both bullied and stole what he wanted from travelers. He was very much like how Gaston is in Beauty and the Beast - a braggart who always tried to show he was better than everyone around him. He believed others owed him something. He eventually went to jail for it, but was released. And now he's become more approachable and less of a total jerkhole. He has a lot of tension with Duncan and that doesn't go anywhere.

Dundas Chart for ASP.NET Enterprise Edition, version 4.0 now includes the tools you need to create stunning animated charts without writing a single line of code.
Animated charts add depth to your data. They highlight valuable information and support memory retention. If you need to emphasize a Data Point when it reaches a critical value – a pressure value, high/low sales numbers, or a stock sell price - an animated chart ensures your point will be made and remembered. <OBJECT id=SWFObj1 codeBase=http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,40,0 height=320 width=400 border=0 classid=clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11CF-96B8-444553540000> <embed src="/KB/showcase/dundas_chartani/columngradient2.swf" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" name="SWFObj1" width="400" height="320"></OBJECT>Figure 1: Dundas Chart Rendering Flash AnimationDundas Chart animations are extremely useful in online marketing or presentation scenarios. They have the power to draw viewer attention to the most impactful and relevant data. Using an animated chart format to present your firm's sales performance over time, relative to the industry standard, creates an impressive backdrop for a sales presentation
Dundas Chart for .NET Enterprise Edition enables you to design charts without having to write any code. Using the Dundas Chart Wizard, you can design the appearance of the chart, bind it to your data source and use the Visual Studio property browser to set your animation properties.
Dundas Chart for ASP.NET Enterprise Edition is able to animate your data in either Flash or SVG formats. The first step is to decide the output type:
Figure 2: Selecting the to render to Flash
// set the render format to be Flash Chart1.ImageType = ChartImageType.Flash;
At this point, the rendering format of a static chart has been selected. The chart will be rendered in Flash in the same manner that a Png or a Jpg would be rendered. Next, an animation theme needs to be selected, or a custom animation must be created. Animation themes have been added to provide common animations to your chart if applicable, thus reducing unnecessary development. Custom animations give the developer full control of an animation sequence; it can be used to set which element is animated, how to animate it (moving, growing or fading animation) and the timing of the animation.
Whether using themes or custom animations, the developer retains the ability to control both the time period and restart properties of the animation.
Figure 4: Defining the Animation to Repeat with a delay
// set the Animation Theme to Grow elements together Chart1.AnimationTheme = AnimationThemes.GrowingTogether; // set to repeat the animation after a 3 second pause Chart1.AnimationDuration = 7; // set to repeat the animation after a 3 second pause Chart1.RepeatAnimation = true; Chart1.RepeatDelay = 3;
Using the above property settings the following chart animation can be created in minutes.
<OBJECT codeBase=http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0 height=300 width=300 classid=clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000> <EMBED src="/KB/showcase/dundas_chartani/animationtheme.swf" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" width="300" height="300" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" ></EMBED></OBJECT>Figure 5: Chart Rendered using the GrowingTogether animation theme
The animation themes are perfect for making your animated charts and will satisfy the majority of your needs. However, like other chart features provided, there is an easy and powerful way to customize the presentation of your data. Custom animations provide high-end results while maintaining simplicity in development.Custom animations provide full control of the chart elements, allowing each element to be animated and sequenced as desired. The above example of animation can be modified so that the line series draws independently of the animation theme, the chart area axis lines and grid lines are removed from the GrowingTogether animation theme, and the title slides in from the right. The result:
<OBJECT codeBase=http://download.macromedia.com/pub/shockwave/cabs/flash/swflash.cab#version=6,0,0,0 height=300 width=300 classid=clsid:D27CDB6E-AE6D-11cf-96B8-444553540000> <EMBED src="/KB/showcase/dundas_chartani/customanimation.swf" pluginspage="http://www.macromedia.com/go/getflashplayer" width="300" height="300" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" ></EMBED></OBJECT>Figure 6: Chart Rendered using a Custom Animation
There are three tasks to complete. The first will modify the GrowingTogether animation theme to remove the 'fading in' of the axis lines and grid lines. This is done by creating a FadingAnimation object and adding chart elements to the animation object. Since the goal is to disable a set of chart elements from the animation theme, the Enabled property will be set to false and the object will be added to the Chart Animation Collection.
The second task is to create a GrowingAnimation object and add it to the Chart Animation Collection. This animation object consists of the Line chart series. Setting the OneByOne property to true will cause the line to grow point by point over the time specified for the animation sequence.
Finally, to give the chart title a sliding in effect, a MovingAnimation object is added. Moving animations provide an X and Y coordinate (in percentage of the chart) to define where the move will begin; The StartPositionX is set to be 100% of the width of the chart so that the text is initially out of view. The StartTime and Duration is set so that this is one of the last objects to be animated.
// set the Animation Theme to Grow elements together Chart1.AnimationTheme = AnimationThemes.GrowingTogether; // set to repeat the animation after a 3 second pause Chart1.AnimationDuration = 7; // set to repeat the animation after a 3 second pause Chart1.RepeatAnimation = true; Chart1.RepeatDelay = 3; // Disable axes lines and major grid lines animation // from the growing together animation theme FadingAnimation axesAnimation = new FadingAnimation(); axesAnimation.AnimatedElements.Add(Chart1.ChartAreas["Default"].AxisX, AxisAnimationElement.MajorGridlines); axesAnimation.AnimatedElements.Add(Chart1.ChartAreas["Default"].AxisX, AxisAnimationElement.AxisLine); axesAnimation.AnimatedElements.Add(Chart1.ChartAreas["Default"].AxisY, AxisAnimationElement.MajorGridlines); axesAnimation.AnimatedElements.Add(Chart1.ChartAreas["Default"].AxisY, AxisAnimationElement.AxisLine); axesAnimation.Enabled = false; Chart1.CustomAnimation.Add(axesAnimation); // Replace line series animation with Growing One-by-One GrowingAnimation seriesAnimation = new GrowingAnimation(); seriesAnimation.AnimatedElements.Add(Chart1.Series["Series2"]); seriesAnimation.StartTime = 2.0; seriesAnimation.Duration = 3.0; seriesAnimation.OneByOne = true; Chart1.CustomAnimation.Add(seriesAnimation); // Animate the title to be moving in from the right MovingAnimation titleAnimation = new MovingAnimation(); titleAnimation.AnimatedElements.Add(Chart1.Titles[0]); titleAnimation.StartTime = 8.5; titleAnimation.Duration = 1.0; titleAnimation.StartPositionX = 100; titleAnimation.StartPositionY = 7; titleAnimation.Enabled = true; Chart1.CustomAnimation.Add(titleAnimation);
The above example is a fairly simplistic custom animation. With the API provided and the ability to animate each chart element independently, the developer has full creative control. The animation possibilities are far too varied to be fully demonstrated here, so to see additional examples visit the Dundas Chart Gallery (see link below), or download a full evaluation copy of Dundas Chart for ASP.NET Enterprise Edition here.

State Football: Dell Rapids holds 11A spot in year-end blow-out
Continuing a tradition of dominance in South Dakota's state-level football play, the Dell Rapids Quarrier team took to the turf Nov. 9 to continue a three-time streak in the competition, leaving the Harrisburg Tigers in the lurch in a 47-0 shut-out.Following a 35-0 win versus West Central in 2011 and a 55-20 victory over this year's opponent Harrisburg in 2010, the Quarriers logged their third straight Class 11A state title last week at the DakotaDome in Vermillion.The boys finished up their 2012 season with an 11-1 record, with the Quarriers' sole loss at the hands of Class 11B runners-up the Tri-Valley Mustangs. And though the crew lost 18 seniors from its leadership from the 2011 go-around, this year's seniors, along with some underclassman up-and-comers maintained the recent legacy of nabbing the title in Vermillion.Leading the charge versus the Tigers was sophomore Riley Schmidt, whose showing at the Dome garnered him both the Joe Robbie Most Valuable Player award and the Most Outstanding Back award.The young Quarrier scored the team three of its touchdowns, including one off of a 56-yard run in the second quarter.Kicking things off for the Dell Rapids streak, though, was senior Cole Langer, who carried in a two-yard rush for the first score of the game at the end of the first period.And the tough defense from both sides of the field stopped there, as Dells sent Langer again to the end zone, this time off of an 18-yard carry to start the second quarter.After Schmidt ran in his 56-yarder, Lane LeBrun helped close out the half at 28-0 with his own 19-yard dash.Michael McGee got things started for the Dells boys in the second half, pushing through a 76-yard touchdown run five minutes in, while Schmidt proved his merit in the last four minutes of the quarter by running in another Dells touchdown off of 17 yards.And though the Tigers came close to scoring in the final period of the game, a fumble adjacent to the endzone was picked up by Schmidt for an 89-yard final score for Dell Rapids.Dell Rapids more than doubled Harrisburg's efforts in rushing yardage, posting 364 gained to the Tigers' 161, lending itself to the one-sided Quarrier victory.Schmidt led the boys in this regard, claiming 110 yards on the night, while Langer ran in 88. McGee produced a 79-yard total for the championship match, and Lane LeBrun totaled 58.Quarterback Matt Kolbeck produced one lengthy completed pass for Dell Rapids, sending Jacob Morris a 40-yard reception.And though Zach White gave the Quarriers 334 yards in kickoffs, Harrisburg was relegated to punts after the onset of the game, with Brett Nichols providing Dell Rapids 40 yards in returns.Langer led the defensive charge, with 11 total tackles, while McGee, Jackson Entringer and Ryan Nichols each totaled seven tackles. In addition, Entringer's strong defensive showing, including a decisive quarterback sack, earned him the game-end Most Outstanding Lineman award.Schmidt, Matthew DeNoon and Nielsen rounded out the defense efforts, with the former tallying six total tackles and the latter two four apiece.

by Buck Pomerantz Efficient bass power always set correctly JBL's compact GTO-501EZ amplifier will drive your subs with up to 500 watts RMS, bringing exciting, visceral impact to the music in your car. This mono amp looks very cool with its "old-school" styling, and JBL includes a few innovations that really separate this amp from the others. Simple Setup System for setting amp gain One of the biggest problems with installing an amplifier is setting the gain properly. JBL has come up with a fool-proof method for getting it right, ensuring full-power performance and distortion-free play. Using test tones on the included setup CD, you adjust the gain knob until the yellow light or the red light goes off, and the green "Gain OK" light comes on it's that simple. You'll never have to worry again about your amp "clipping" the signal, and possibly damaging your speakers or subs. Plays well with factory radios This GTO amp comes with screw-on bare wire-to-RCA adapters that let you hook up the amp, using your car's factory speaker wiring to supply the input signal. In some vehicles, the factory radio shuts down when you try to tap into the speaker wires, displaying a "no speakers are present" message. This amp features a special circuit that fools those factory radios by simulating a speaker load. The onboard crossovers and bass boost let you fine tune the system to perfection, and the large recessed knobs mean you don't need a tiny screwdriver to make your adjustments.

Who needs an amp? You might think you don't need an amp because you have a 400-watt system in your car, or because your new stereo puts out 50 watts a channel. But those are peak wattage ratings, which may boil down to 15 or 20 watts per channel, using the more realistic RMS rating. An amp sends your speakers the power they need to deliver your music with clarity and impact, whether you're using factory speakers or high-performance components. And low-frequency reproduction requires lots of power, so an amp is an absolute must if you're adding a sub to your system.
Not enough power Written By PaulH, Pittsburgh, PA on Thursday, December 04, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This amp did not have nearly as much power as I had expected. Tried using it to run one 12in sub, but as soon as the bass started to get loud enough to be audible, the amp would shut itself off because is was overloaded. My previous amp with the same advertised power output never did this, wish i could've return this amp, but by the time i installed it, it was passed the 30 day window. Pros: Small and compact Cons: Not enough power Shuts itself off No remote bass boost
JBL GTO-501EZ Written By Anonymous, hillsborough, NC on Monday, February 10, 2014 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Just as advertised
Take the time to "dial it in" Written By BenM, Louisville, KY on Friday, July 19, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Great little amp. Have it driving a single 10" JL 10W3v3-2 sub and sounds great. Take the time to dial it in and you won't be disappointed. Pros: Good value; setting are easily accessible
JBL GTO-501EZ Written By Andy W., Memphis, TN on Wednesday, July 10, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Bought this amp with a JBL GTO804 8" bub to add a little bass to my F150. I'm only getting 350 of the 500 watts since it's a 4 ohm sub, but the output is still more than enough for the bass I was looking for (even with bass boost all the way down). The speaker wire/RCA adapters that come with it make it super easy to hook to your factory radio, and are way less of a hassle than a line-out converter. Also, the setup cd it comes with makes tuning virtually idiot-proof. This amp and the GTO sub are the first JBL products I've ever owned, and they definitely lived up to the hype. Oh and FYI.. someone mentioned below that the "auto-on" feature does not work well, and requires a high volume to detect a signal. This may be the case if you're using pre-amp inputs, but if you use the Hi1 or Hi2 inputs (adapters), this is NOT an issue. It has fired right up every time for me, even when my volume is all the way down! I ran a remote wire just in case, but I never even stripped the ends off of it. Pros: Compact, Easy installation with factory radio, Auto-on feature, Setup CD, Easy to adjust settings Cons: I literally have zero complaints about this amp (and I complain about everything).
What a bargain. Written By Ritche, San Diego, CA on Wednesday, July 03, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Haven't installed yet, but will have a full review once installed. Bought it because of the reviews it received and the price was right for what I needed. For now, I'll give five stars because Crutchfield has always sold me items I have not been disappointed with. Pros: Price. Cons: Let you know once installed.
perfect Written By larry, eastern,nc on Friday, June 28, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) installed in my brand new 2013 kia sportsge sx,liked all the features and integration of factory uvo system and did not want to gut the interior to run wires everywhere.Replaced factory 8" sub with a jbl gto series 8" and use this amp to drive it.the amp is top notch,hook-up and adjustment is brilliant. Also replaced all door speakers with jbl power series speakers, which was a perfect macth with the factory amp rated at 2 ohm. Pros: auto turn-on feature, ease of hook-up and adjustment. Cons: none
Easy and powerful Written By Omardude, New Jersey on Friday, May 24, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) This was the easiest amp to install. Everything is clearly labeled. The RCA adapter makes doing line level input extremely easy and clean. The sound output this produces with my 12" JL audio amp is outstanding. Highly recommended for anyway looking for a basic monoblock to drive 1 or 2 subs. The 501 is also small enough to fit virtually anywhere in the car; mine is under my front passenger seat and you won't even know it's there. Pros: Easy to install; powerful; line level input adapter is fantastic Cons: None
Pretty darn good Written By DavidK, Muskogee, OK on Tuesday, April 02, 2013 Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?) Between, the low price, amp kit and the free Polk 10" sub deal, I would say this is a pretty darn good bargain! I'm not looking to "boom" down the street, just have clean music. This amp more than met my demands. ONLY one thing....it has on "auto on" feature.....DONT USE IT. Not knowing, I tried not using a remote wire, didn't work. After I assembled everything back in my truck, I realized it took the amp A LOT of volume to "turn on", so I just ran a remote wire. One other thing, Crutchfield claims that JBL does not have a bass knob for this amp....THEY DO! Pros: Price amp kit Compact Sound Cons: Auto on shouldn't even be a feature on the amp
Crazy power. Written By Skidpalace, Boston MA on Monday, January 07, 2013 PIcked this amp up with the GTO 1204BR 12" sub box. I can tell you that this little Class D monoblock amp can drive this 2 ohm sub like no tomorrow. It's like a shiatsu massage in the driver's seat. Love the built in gain meters. Pop in the included test tone CD, crank up the volume on your head unit, then ratchet up the gain on the amp till the green light stays steady. You're done. Pros: Compact size, Class D, versatile connections, included test tone CD, sturdy construction. 1 Ohm stable, if you need it. Cons: No grippy feet (needs to be mounted).
Mean amp! Written By Me, Albuquerque, NM on Thursday, June 21, 2012 "Coolness Factor" Build Quality Ease of Use Sound Quality Value This amplifier is the real deal. I was never a fan of JBL until i learned it was bought out by Harmon. So I figured I would give it a shot. This little beast is powering 2 kicker Comp 10" subs that are a couple years old. Needless to say I will probably have to buy a couple of new subs because this amp has pushed them to the limit, and I barely have the amplifier turned up. I've had to reconfigure my user setting on my Kenwood head unit by turning the bass way down and resetting the sub level to 1. If you want power, this is your amp. I think i will purchase a second one in the very near future just to make a lot of noise. Happy listening... Pros: small size that uses less space, equaling big sound. Cons: 1 channel for speakers makes it a little tough to bridge. (who cares, the sound is AWSOME!)

I loved The Hulk Vs. Wolverine...my favorite portrayal of Deadpool ever...I'd watch this too.
I hate these animated comic book things....This is basiacally Marvel saying "yeah we know we make sh!tty animared movies, so we're just gonna takes pictures of our comic books, copy them to DVD"s, and sale them to you fanboy fools". SHM......
Ah...I thought it was an animated adaptation...I didn't realize it was a motion comic...yeah, those are pretty lame, IMO...I don't think Marvel's animation sucks though...they just need to get better writers, I think....and FINISH stories they start...I was so disappointed with their Planet Hulk movie.
I do not understand why Marvel did not keep the crew who made the Hulk VS movies working to make ALL of their animation FOREVER. This motion comics stuff is so lame. So very lame.
Also, anyone who thinks that all Marvel animation is not good has not watch Avengers EMH or the Hulk VS movies either. Marvel is lame for not keeping those people employed. F*cking IDIOTS. >:(
Probably not going to be hardcore enough, they get pretty bloody in the comics.
Avengers EMH, LOL!!!! I would enjoy it if I was 6 just like Teen Titans Go.

hate to start rumours, but I read this on F.S.U. and it looks like Kostner injured herself judging from this person's report and will miss at least the first half of the GP season.

Last edited by R.D.; 09-27-2006 at 09:31 PM.
I don't get it. She's off ice for 3 weeks and misses the GP series? Kostner has been assigned TEB (11/16~11/19) and NHK (11/30~12/3) so she should have plenty of time to recover - unless it's a serious injury. Best wishes for her.
Not a surprise given how much she works herself.
Semi-major injuries these days pretty much happen to every skater, every year. There's no other way to get around it when you're trying to do so many Triples.
What a shame for Caroline.
And all these injuries are terrible for the sport of figure skating, too. It's getting so that championships are decided not by who is the best skater but by who is healthy enough to show up.
Perhaps a moderator could modify this thread title to either "Kostner out of the Grand Prix?" or "Kostner Injured?" -- just a friendly suggestion.
Best wishes to Kostner for a speedy and full recovery.
What?! No!?!?! :indiff: It just can't be!!! My princess, my idol, my girl...!!!! How?!?! Why?!?!?! Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh :banging:
Poor Caro and her family...
In fact:
Her father is a hockey coach in Switzerland and he and his team went to some competition. Unfortunatly, they had an accident and the bus was burned and all of them are injured. And- some even died. I didn't understand well is it two or four people. Oh how sorry I am....
This can't be...no,no....THE WORLD IS CRUSHING DOWN! Skating without Caro- it's like life with no breathing!
Last edited by Mathman; 09-27-2006 at 02:53 PM.
I'm not an expert, but if Caro is off 3 weeks starting today, it only gives her 2-3 weeks to get back to competitive form for those events. Unless she's able to stroke just can't jump/spin on ice, and do a lot of off ice training, I can't imagine she be ready, and it's not worth risking further injury to get back in form anyway.
Poor Caro! Hopefully she can recover in time for Nationals/Worlds!
edited: over on FSU it was reported she has a leg injury and is out until December.
Last edited by MKFSfan; 09-27-2006 at 02:50 PM.
oh well, that's a shame. But it's the order of business. I wonder if they are any more to come (for major skaters).
.....I am still frustrated.....Caro, please get well soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's a tough break for Carolina. I wish her a full & speedy recovery.
Well, it was more compassion than was shown in the two posts previous to this one . The "let's pick on a poster" posts are really annoying. Can the rest of us have a break please?
Having said that, I am sorry that Carolina was injured. I wish her well. I hope her father is doing ok. It wasn't clear how badly he was injured. That must be so stressful for everyone.
Anything for Skating- Remember Carolina has to have been really strong to get as far as she has. I am sure that she can and will fight her way back.

umm, when someone is callous, it is appalling, and that is why others responded to that post.
That said, it's the last I'll comment on that

New York show - Celebs celebrate.
31 May 1997
New York show - Celebs celebrate.
New York show - Celebs celebrate. Technically, best show so far - the places is heaving with celebrities and artist Roy Lichtenstein sees his plane crash for the first time. And Bjork DJs at the aftershow.
Big New York rock show number one. And a good time was had by all. From a technical point of view tonight's show was our best yet, despite the erratic and rather bizarre behavior of the periscope heads. The band certainly rose to the occasion - The Edge took the opportunity to find new, currently unexplored, areas of the stage. During the opening chords of I Will Follow he took off along the stage right runway with no warning, leaving a trail of scurrying cameramen in his wake. One way of finding out who's asleep. I learned later that Bono had not had the easiest of gigs, but really you wouldn't have known. Given that Roy Lichtenstein was in the audience, a nice touch was Bono's shouting "OK Roy, here it comes..." at the pause during Bullet the Blue Sky, just before the Lichtenstein plane crash sequence appeared on the screen.
The celebrity count was, of course, on a par with Las Vegas. The guest platform in front of the mix position was absolutely jammed with people. Run Wrake, who is our star animator, came over from England to see his work in place for the first time. The Supermodels were present in force for the first time on the tour, dancing and having a great time as is their norm, which always makes for a good vibey gig - at least from where I'm sitting.
After the show everyone went off to find the disco tent, hidden somewhere in the backstage parking lot. It turned out to be easy enough to find (follow the bass sound) and was the scene of much partying into the wee small hours.. The band, being the devil-may-care wild rockers that they are rushed off to do a German TV interview right after the show, but did join us later. Highlight of the aftershow night was the arrival of Howie B and Bjork to do a joint DJ-ing session at the turntables in the party tent. As Howie himself would say... "wicked".

Travel day, Melbourne - Auckland.
Within the bands entourage (certainly by comparison to the crews clockwork scheduling) travel departure times are often a little loose. This morning was especially so, due to three contradictory memos which had been emailed out last night and this morning.

I was planning on resurrecting the tour diary today, being the day we were scheduled to fly to Auckland for the load-in tomorrow. However, its now old news that the remainder of the tour dates have been postponed, so Im not going anywhere further than the corner cafe. Its been a very weird week indeed - much akin to driving into a wall.

About the show
TOTEM traces the fascinating journey of the human species from its original amphibian state to its ultimate desire to fly. The characters evolve on a stage evoking a giant turtle, the symbol of origin for many ancient civilizations.
Inspired by many founding myths, TOTEM illustrates, through a visual and acrobatic language, the evolutionary progress of species.
Somewhere between science and legend TOTEM explores the ties that bind Man to other species, his dreams and his infinite potential.
