café allongé (complete short film)

And this, I believe is part of paying a tribute to the late master of Japanese animation, Satoshi Kon, who passed away two days ago, 24th of August, 2010. What Kawanimation (check their Vimeo pool) did with their almost seven minutes is an hommage to Satoshi Kon’s anime itself – watch and enjoy. It has bits of juvenile drama in it and how Yannick, the young protagonist tries to initiate a score on a young lady. With devastating results. The image comes from the blog of creator Maxime Paccalet. And while you’re at it, check user elchoupi on YouTube, he has amazing pieces of French animation among his uploads.

The television skies of Chiba City branded his brains in 1992. He hasn't recovered fully since. Re-wired his brain with a few years of FastTracker, hosted radio shows on the first Hungarian netradio (ParaRadio) for 4 years, went on to broadcast radio (EstFM 98.6) for another two. Worked on the absurd radio series Kónuszék, that actually led him to become a script writer for the multiple-award winning, New York Times-acclaimed animation Nyócker.

Started LD50 in 2001, a media experiment for him, an alternative community portal for everybody else. Did DJ'ing and promoting for 6 years in Budapest: the first weekly gothic/industrial clubnights in Bp, the VK/jrock nights Nippon Shoxx and the biggest local industrial/cyber party series called Kollektíva, among many. Spent 2 1/2 years as an IT/science journalist at hvg.hu and a few months with visual mixtape startup DragOnTape.

2010 made him into an International Business School part-time lecturer about online marketing/media and weird cultural trends. He was the chief editor of THE DOSE, an alternative popcultural PDF mag and a columnist for MONDO, a very glossy mag with a focus on Japan and pop culture. Has insatiable love for weird stuff, Asian cuisine, pop culture, energy drinks, coffee, eyecandy, Japan, anything with a Scoville rate or a frequency and a life-long devotion to all things on the edge.

His debut non-fiction book DAMAGE REPORT about how we imagined the future as such and how it turned out instead (with a healthy injection of pop & fringe culture) was released by publishing house MangaFan in April 2012.
