La batalla esa

Había intentado no acabar aquí porque bastante tengo ya peleándome en la vida real por determinados temas, pero hoy he visto con envidia como Guionista en Chamberí volvía a bajar a la arena para mancharse las manos y he pensado que servidor, con lo combativo que es con el tema en la vida real, no puede seguir siendo un cobarde...

Para entrar en la guerra, voy lanzando unas preguntas al aire.

- ¿Quién (coño) son la Asociación de Internautas y la Asociación de Usuarios de Internet?

- ¿El nombramiento de Ángeles González-Sinde es el único que le preocupa al internauta medio? ¿no tiene otro asunto político que considere más importante?

- ¿Por qué la gente viene a quejarse de los precios de productos culturales y no lo hacen de las conexiones a Internet? ¿por qué les parece bien pagar a Rapidshare y no a la Fnac?

- ¿Qué experto en mercados dijo que este modelo de negocio está extinto? ¿lo ha dicho alguien que sabe de lo que habla o lo han dicho 200 veinteañeros con problemas de sobrepeso?

- ¿Quién decide que un modelo de negocio está extinto?

- ¿Quién dijo que la cultura tenía que ser gratis? (¿qué es cultura?) y de todos esos que lo dicen y lo escriben... ¿cuántos libros leen al año?

- Cuando alguien dice que tal cosa no se puede comprar ¿se le ha ocurrido mirar en una web que me han dicho que se llama algo de Amazon? (¿Por qué pagar a Rapidshare si se puede comprar un DVD libre de zona por 30 euros?)

- ¿Alguna de las personas que escriben sobre el cierre de The pirate bay sabe algo de la legislación sueca?

- ¿Alguna de las personas que hablan de todo esto se han leído la Ley de Propiedad Intelectual y el Código penal?

- ¿Por qué el canon compensatorio por la pérdida de derechos de autor existe desde que llevaba pañales pero a nadie se le ha ocurrido quejarse hasta que han llegado la asociaciones a las que me refería en la primera pregunta?

- ¿De verdad no hay otra cosa por la que preocuparse en este país? ¿o en el mundo? ¿no hay mucha gente que pasa demasiado tiempo leyendo foros y blogs?

y mi favorita....

- ¿Por qué esas personas con esa sed de cultura que ahora hacen de la Ministra la encarnación del mismísimo Satanás, escriben mensajes con tal cantidad de faltas de ortografía?

I'm Udderly Thrilled!

I have LEGO cows!

Explanation: I finally got myself the LEGO Medieval Market Village, complete with LEGO cows! I'm very excited about this. Of course, my daughter will probably be in school by the time I have enough free time to put it together, but that's not important. The LEGO cows are in my possession!

Special Blog Bonus: I finally caught up on my LEGO news. Here are some pretty slick models I've found:
  • I'm generally not into mechs (or whatever they call LEGO robot type thingies), but this model impressed me. Wish I could build like that... or had the time to try.
  • There seems to be a LEGO genre where a dark force is taking over the world. I've seen several models of this sort, but this one is my favorite by far.
  • This model is just a good old-fashioned castle, complete with the wood-on-stone buildings that I like so much.
  • And finally, this is just an impressive little piece of LEGO architecture.

Los Peces Making Of

This are some photos and videos about the website www.lospeces.es

Los Peces is a pop Spanish band from Spain. For their second LP we released a new version of their website. So this is how we made it:

First we had the previous website from 2006. It was me who made it. Just simple, a menu with a photo slide.


We had also a logo simulating the yin-yan, two fishes biting their tails:
Before anything we had the new video of the band, with a stop-motion pop theme.


So, the video defined the cover of the album as you can see in the photo.


So, before doing anything we uploaded an "on construction website" with the launching day of the project, March 14th, just the day the LP was on the shops.


The first stories of the website: The election of one of the components of the band, relation to deep sea, fishes, bubbles, the menu...


More, we sent also a mailing to all the Media, radios, tvs and promos announcing the launching of the LP:


Next step was the promotion photos, so we met the photographer Blanca del Amo and we had this:


We had a good material. From some of the photos the illustrator made the draws, this first one for Santi:


On second place the draws for the singer, Clara:

We had also more draws for the fishes, the background, etc. here´s one:

About the programming: I would say this is a migration web from AS2 to AS3, it is made in Actionscript 3 but still with the forms of AS2. I didn´t have time to use a framework or so. For example I used the classes of GSkinner for Collision Detection, Tweenlite with recursive callings, Liquid Design from NoPonies, Google Analytics for AS3, etc.

Here the first trials, you can check the initial movement clicking. You can check the liquid design changing the browser width and height.


At the end we chose illustrations instead of photos. I have to say here, first time I saw the white background I told the designer:
- Ey! But the sea is blue!
She laughed a lot about this. So I gave up my narromind and realised:
- Oh, it´s good to have a designer surprising me!

So, this is how the website works: There´s a little intro where you choose your character, then you just go swimming, you can go up or down pressing the mouse. Also there´s a wave and the sea background moving, with the fishes which are also the menu onRollOver:



We did also a bit of socializing and 2.0. This was:
An oficial blog for the band components to post:


A YouTube Channel:


A flickr gallery:


And a facebook profile sincronized with all the previous 2.0 content:


Lastly there´s a shop, we´re still building it:




These are the credits for all this:

Concept: Fernando Comet and Miriam Arjona
illustration: Miriam Arjona
Programming: Fernando Comet
Loops: Santiago Comet
Music: Los Peces
Social nets: Fernando Comet and María Díaz


You can watch the project also on Behance

hope you enjoy it!
