Then the dolphin died.... no he didn't.

That gave me a total flashback to the stories my younger brother would tell when we were little.

looks like it might have come out of the RISD Film/Animation/Video School, which has a pretty sweet festival every year to showcase student work

Didn't seem to want to run on Firefox 2.0.0.2 - BUM BUM BUM!

So I tried Internet Explorer instead. I gave a few karate chops - HIEYAH! and the player finally loaded.

So, yeah. Salon isn't completely nice. But since when has it ever been? BUM BUM BUM!

Sorry some of y'all are having difficulties. Just as a datapoint, I'm using firefox 2.0.0.2 also and didn't have a problem. Ever since I saw the film, I've been checking periodically to see if it's made its way online -- I guess I got so excited to see it I didn't consider the ickiness of Salon's interface.

cubby -- yes, he was a RISD student. I don't remember if it was junior or senior work, but I saw it at his class screening.
