He's
fit as a fiddle, He's fit as a flea
He's 85,000 times fitter than me
He knows every muscle
Each vein and corpuscle
Is pulling TOGETHER To gather the prize :
A shiny medallion
That dazzles the eyes
This sleek, swarthy stallion
Will bare' recognise
From his podium-placing
The pain I am facing
Debasing !
I'm chasing not catching my breath
Have
I bungs in my lungs
And a float in my throat
That is guttingly cutting my chance to devote
My days to a diet of damsons and dates
And pippified pomegranates plastered on plates ?
You ARE
what you eat
And you reap what you sow
Be it gluten or wheat
It is sentenced to show
You should shake OFF the sugar
With vim and with vigour
Assault Added Salt
Make the regime de
rigeur
Just
consume shoots and fruits
(To SQUEEEEEEEZE into tracksuits)
And the juice only Zeus may B(e/i)sto(w)
Ambrosia
makes posier
the beautiful bod's of Olympian Gods
Athletic
Aesthetic
Pneumatic
Dramatic
Asthmatic

Only REALLY rarely
They've
such figures because they are SWIGGERS !

This .free
verse.
was completed as an
extension to the first
three lines
("He's fit as a fiddle, He's fit as
a flea,
He's 85,000 times fitter than me,")
which was a .spontaneous
remark.
I
made whilst .playing.
with my puppy.
The .opening
comment. was
re-contextualised
to discuss athleticism in
the fully .sportingly.-competitive
environment of the .Olympic
Games.. There are
references to AmbrosiaCreamed Rice and BistoGravy
that'll prolly be lost on an international
audience - like the one
what this is DONE
*bound* to attract).

Talking <TALKING HEADS> ~
At the close of 2003,
I discoveredReallusion
and
their hugely appealing .Crazy
Talk.lip-synch .animation.
software. Despite the facts that
the faces you could employ
to adapt, at that time,
had to be contained within fairly small,
low-resolution .images.
with output biased towards
closed-format, SQUARE,
web-based and executable .e.nail
greetings.
rather than the much more versatile .DV.-quality
.film.
that was introduced for the vastly
superior .V4.
release, I was immediately captivated by the program's potential.
These two.films.
show the result of my earliest attempt. .Crazy
Talk 3.5. was yet
to include teeth and the
hardest aspect of production was selecting a
character that wouldn't seem overly disfigured
by the imposition of a crudely slit mouth.
The first
example shows the entirely unmodified
result, the second has improved
.audio.
and the
benefit of bold.subtitles....the
latter is,
therefore, "the one
to watch".
