Paper Doll

Paper Doll 《紙紮》 from Bernadette Choy on Vimeo.



No English translation of the dialogue, but that just makes it all the weirder.

The website "explains" thus: "An animation film about CHUNG's afterlife journey, in search of his cause of death. Chung look back his lifetime, and travel across the 'middle-land'. In the meantime, he made friends with the Paperdolls (paper work Chinese offering figures ). This is a relaxing and humorous animation that introduces the Chinese dead's world."

Sex-Android



I'm not sure I like the music of Japanese popsters Sex-Android. But I must admit they have quite a distinctive style.

A Lonely Duck



The YouTube description: "this is a song about confidence of a girl who thinks herself as a lonely duck."

Instead of wearing yellow and green, she should have dressed in silver and red, and identified herself with the Ultraman toy.
