I think I may have mentioned before that I’m very drawn to anything Alice in Wonderland related for, perhaps somewhat obvious, reasons.
I grew up with a great fondness for Lewis Carroll and all things Alice. I tend to collect books and various related ephemera.
The Jabberwocky is one of my all time favorites. So I was quite excited to run across this very cool concept of poem animations, and to find there was one of Lewis Carroll reading the Jabberwocky.
The animations are done by Jim Clark a (in his own words) videographer, sound recordist, photographer, archivist of acoustic musicians and poets, computer animator, and poet.
Jim has a YouTube channel poetryanimations with lots more of these great animations. I encourage you to check more of them out.
Oh, and he’s available for commercial work ([email protected] ).
Enjoy!
At first I was very impressed myself, for having previously nailed the correct and authoritative pronunciation on these words!
But of course, credit is due not to me – but to Carroll, for taking such pains to spell them all so evocatively in the first place.
Write more, thats all I have to say. Literally, it seems
as though you relied on the video to make your point.
You obviously know what youre talking about, why waste your intelligence on just posting videos to your weblog when you could be giving us something enlightening to read?
Hi Onetwotree,
Get up on the wrong side of the bed today?
Or…considering your “name” is listed as your website address just a misguided spewing for SEO purposes, perhaps?
I’m guessing the later, and despite the disagreeable way you’ve gone about it I’m actually happy to play along.
So here’s your linkage. You’re welcome! π
One warning however…you’re barking up the wrong traffic tree since my little corner of the web has zero to none.
Oh, and I did visit your site (cute name) and I actually liked what I saw. And this is despite the fact that YOUR blog simply is a place for you to show your (cute) product. So no nasty nattering back from me.
At any rate, I like your website and your tree and I’m sorry if somehow my sharing of a video offended. (But not really π ).
And if it was your SEO guy who did this bit of negative spamming, if I were you I’d give him a stern talking to. Didn’t his mom ever tell him that you catch more flies with honey than vinegar?
Have a fabulous day!
