Manolo is an outrageously talented painter and all round nice guy. He did the sketch on the front of the Complexity domain and produced some of the artwork featured in The Deadfall. Why not head over to his site and check out his gallery?]]> http://www.complexity.org/linear/2007/09/manolo_sierra.html http://www.complexity.org/linear/2007/09/manolo_sierra.html Elsewhither Sun, 30 Sep 2007 16:14:15 +0000 here.

They have scored the just released anime Tekkon Kinkreet which is the perfect project for them, blending their love of the Japanese animated form with their love of small, weird children with superhuman powers locked in a struggle against the mafia. What? It all makes sense.]]> http://www.complexity.org/linear/2007/09/plaid_tekkonkinkreet_1.html http://www.complexity.org/linear/2007/09/plaid_tekkonkinkreet_1.html Elsewhither film movie plaid TekkonKinkreet Thu, 27 Sep 2007 06:51:46 +0000 previous entry we mentioned that we shot two films.

The main problem was a bunch of parasitic spammers who, not content to bombard us daily via e-mail, have taken to adding to blog comments with inane monkey babble about viagra and goods and services. They managed to overload a spamfilter we had installed and screw everything up. We will find them and perform horrible medical experiments upon them. In the meantime, we've switched to Movable Type, which works with our older MySQL and runs a little faster when it's serving static pages. We have also switched off comments for the moment, which is a shame. Perhaps we can add them back in on an individual basis for anyone who can provide photographic evidence of the beheaded corpse of a spammer? http://www.complexity.org/linear/2007/03/a_black_hole.html http://www.complexity.org/linear/2007/03/a_black_hole.html Meta Thu, 22 Mar 2007 15:57:12 +0000
