Sylvia Harris : 1953-2011 Butterfly in meadow, Seal Cove, Maine, 2011 In the spring after my mother died, I was in the garden with our daughter, Fiona, then just four years old, when we noticed a large, orange butterfly. Wherever we went, went the butterfly — through the garden, past the stone walls, up and down the hill — hovering near us for close to an hour. “Buddhists believe that after a person dies, their soul remains present for awhile,” I told Fiona. “So maybe that butterfly is really Nini,” I added, referring to the name our children used for their grandmother. Fiona poked at the earth with her plastic shovel, pretending to plant something, and said nothing. “Daddy’s mother is downstairs,” she announced, a propos of nothing. I first met Sylvia in 1979, when I was still a teenager and she was a graduate student in graphic design at Yale. But my experience of Sylvia was a personal one — tethered to professional practice in a way, but enriched and ennobled by who she was, not what she did. So, here goes.

Existe la convicción de que la persona se mueve desde dentro, en base a sus propias fuerzas de superación, y no tanto por imposiciones externas” (Valentín de Pablo).

Noburo Ofuji Memorial Museum | Japanese Animated Film Classics Ofuji was the seventh of eight children born to a family who ran a phonograph recording studio in Asakusa, Tokyo. His given name was Nobushichiro. Initially taught by Junichi Kouchi, one of the founders of Japanese animation, Ofuji made his debut with Burglars of "Baghdad" Castle (馬具田城の盗賊) using cutouts from Edo chiyogami (Japanese paper with colored patterns) in 1926. This Chiyogami Eiga received a lot of attention and the Jiyu Eiga Kenkyusho, established by Ofuji when he was 21 years old, evolved into Chiyogami Eigasha in 1927. He also produced cel animation works and formed the foundation of Japanese animation along with Yasuji Murata and Sanae (Zenjiro) Yamamoto. He was eventually drawn to silhouette film techniques and developed his own unique style in the postwar years using silhouettes and colored cellophane. After his death, Ofuji's belongings were stored at the Nihon University College of Art.
Cartoon College Year 2 Acting in cartoons consists of appealing to 2 senses, the eye and the ear. The voice actors tell your ears some emotions and the animator tells your eyes how the characters feel.

An Ex-Pixar Designer Creates Astounding Kids' Book On iPad | Co.Design E-books are already a fraught subject for many readers, writers, publishers and designers, but children's e-books are even more so. Is it rotting their minds? Is it as good as good ol' paper? Is it too interactive for their own good? Obviously there are no practical answers to such questions, but at least one children's e-book/app/thingie (what do we call these things, again?) is doing it very, very right. Every page has some delightful, hidden feature embedded into it. Part of why the book works so well is its top-shelf creative pedigree: author William Joyce is also an accomplished illustrator and animator who's published New Yorker covers, won a bunch of Emmys, created character designs for some of Pixar's first animated classics, and worked on many others for Dreamworks and Disney. Designing interactive interfaces for kids is no mean feat, and the Moonbot team really made some great choices with "Morris Lessmore." [Buy "The Fantastic Flying Books of Mr.
