Kingdom Hearts: “A Bug’s Life” world idea (Ant Island)

In honor of the 20th anniversary of “Kingdom Hearts” coming in 2 months, let us now discuss my other world proposal for “Kingdom Hearts”, “A Bug’s Life”. This is another Disney Renaissance movie a lot of people forgot about, but I grew up with that movie. Following Chicken Little as a summon in “Kingdom Hearts 2”, the worlds of “Toy Story”, “Monsters Inc.”, and the Marvel Studios animated movie, “Big Hero 6” being featured worlds in “Kingdom Hearts 3”, and of course, the appearance of Wreck-it Ralph in “Kingdom Hearts 3” and “Kingdom Hearts Union χ[Cross]”, “A Bug’s Life” can be another great Pixar film to use in a future “Kingdom Hearts” installment.

STORY ("ANT ISLAND")

FIRST VISIT

As day turns to night, once the circus closes, Sora arrives as an insect (I don’t know what bug form he should be to be honest) and bumps into Flik (Dave Foley). After introductions, Sora tags along with Flik to search for bigger bugs to fight Hopper and the grasshoppers, which was what the Ant Council allowed Flik to do. Flik tells Sora the details as they explore the city. When they make it to the bar where the Circus Bugs (Brad Garrett as Dim, Bonnie Hunt as Rosie, Jerome Ranft, filling in for his late brother, Joe Ranft as Heimlich, Jeff Bennett as Slim, Nick Jameson as Francis, Kath Soucie as Gypsy, Jim Cummings as Manny, and Ian McShane as Tuck and Roll) drown their sorrows after being fired by P.T. Flea (John Ratzenberger). The two flies show up with Thud, and the Circus Bugs perform their “Robin Hood” act. Sora later jumps in when Heartless appear, and fights them all while protecting the Circus Bugs.

When the Heartless have been defeated, Flik follows the can where it rolled to, and Flik is impressed by Sora’s act of heroism, and for protecting the Circus Bugs so they too could fight the Heartless. Flik immediately hires Sora as his first line of defense, and the Circus Bugs fly back to Ant Island with Flik riding on Dim’s back. The ants are afraid at first, but they slowly come out and cheer for Flik. Dot comes out to hug Flik, and Princess Atta (either Julia Louis-Dreyfus or Jodi Benson) sees Flik from far away, starting to worry that Flik shouldn’t have come back that fast.

The Queen (Tress MacNeille, filling in for the late great Phyllis Diller) welcomes Sora and the Circus Bugs to Ant Island, and the Circus Bugs sneak off while Flik gives a “thank you” speech to Princess Atta for making this all possible. Sora tries to talk to the Circus Bugs about why they’re leaving, and Francis explains that Flik lied to them about killing grasshoppers, which wasn’t what they said they would do. Francis does, however, still thank Sora for helping him with those flies. Later, as Princess Atta starts acting suspicious about Flik, who has wandered off to look for his new friends, the Circus Bugs put Flik down to where the Bird’s nest is, and runs away screaming “AAH! RUN!”.

Heimlich responds “Boy, he runs fast for a little guy.”, and the bird appears, screeching at the bugs. Tuck and Roll shout “Tweet-tweet! Tweet-tweet!” and the Circus Bugs run for dear life. However, Francis rescues Dot after letting go of the dandelion she was riding on, and Francis hurts his leg. Thankfully, the boss fight begins as Sora takes on the Bird by himself.

After defeating the Bird, Sora climbs on Dim’s back as Rosie uses her webs as a net to carry Francis and Dot. In response to his pain, after Dot touched his foot, Francis’ wings pop open while shouting “Aah! My leg!”, and accidentally cuts the webs with his wings closing. The next phase of the Bird boss has Sora shoot magic spells at the Bird (Similar to the Dark Baymax boss fight in “Kingdom Hearts 3″).

After completing phase two, Sora, Flik, Dot, and the Circus Bugs land on a few leaves from behind a thorny vine. The Bird tries to use its talons to perch on it, but the Bird screeches in pain and flies away. The ants cheer for the Circus Bugs, and they are taken to the emergency cave where Francis rests his foot. Dr. Flora (Edie McClurg) watches over him and Sora.

Princess Atta comes in to privately apologize to Sora for doubting him, and after rescuing her younger sister, he’s always welcome in Ant Island. Later, she has a private talk with Flik, who admits that she feels uncomfortable about her position when she’ll become the new queen. Flik responds that it’s like they’re waiting for her to screw things up. Upon hearing this, Princess Atta feels terrible for she treated Flik all those years. She tells him, “Flik, I owe you an apology.”. Flik replies “For what?”, and the princess continues, “For lying to you. I only sent you on that mission so you wouldn’t screw things up with Hopper. But after seeing you and friends out there, I was wrong about you. I haven’t really nice to you and... I’m sorry.”. When Atta mentions how even Hopper is afraid of birds, another idea hatches in Flik’s head, and runs off, but rushes back holding Atta’s hand saying “Thank you” and kissing her cheek, before running off again. Princess Atta feels better knowing Flik was able to forgive her.

Flik tells Sora and the Circus Bugs his new plan to build a fake bird to scare away the grasshoppers. This can be a fetch quest for Sora and Flik, who have to collect certain materials to build the bird. They also have to fight a few Heartless and Nobodies. After collecting what they need, Sora, Flik, and the Ants prepare to build the bird. As Atta gives the signal to hoist the bird into the tree, a giant heartless boss shows up, much to the horror of the ants. Sora assures them all they’ll take care of it, and this is where the boss battle comes in. Sora and Flik have to defeat the Heartless boss so the ants can successfully get the bird in the tree. If the heartless cuts the vine, the fake bird will fall and easily break apart.

Sora and Flik defeat the Heartless boss, and the fake bird is successfully inside the tree, with Tuck and Roll popping out of the beak shouting “YOU’RE FIRED!” and the ants cheering for both the bird and for Flik and Sora. Then Sora says goodbye to the bugs and leaves.

SECOND VISIT

The last leaf has fallen and the grasshoppers fly through the foggy weather to Ant Island. The ants run faster than usual with the food they collected, and Atta and the Queen start to panic. They see a shadowed figure that Sora calls a Heartless, and starts to wonder what Sora would do. Fortunately, they see it was just Sora and are both relieved. Sora wonders why everyone is so frantic, and Atta could step in saying “I feel like this is all my fault”. The Queen, however, tells her oldest daughter, “No, sweetheart, it’s not your fault. I was the one who banished Flik first. I was the one who approved of the bird in the first place, even though we shouldn’t be talking about it. I even let you lie to Flik about finding warriors. If anyone’s to blame for all this, it’s me.”. After hearing all this, Sora is understandably angry at them. And both Princess Atta and The Queen don’t blame Sora calling them out for their actions. However, the grasshoppers show up walking slowly. And Hopper (Andrew Stanton) appears, throwing the food from the Offering Stone at the ants in disgust for not collecting double the amount of food he was promised. After shouting “NOT ONE ANT SLEEPS UNTIL WE GET EVERY SCRAP OF FOOD ON THIS ISLAND!”, Sora could come out standing up to Hopper similarly to how Flik stood up to him earlier, when Dot was about to be fed to Thumper (growls by Frank Welker). Molt (Richard Kind) even tries to talk Sora out of yelling at Hopper at how he shouldn’t make him even more angrier.

Hopper orders Thumper to follow that keyblade wielder and squish him like Hopper will when he will squish the Queen later tonight. Dot overhears this, and bumps into Sora. Dot helps lead Sora out of Ant Island safely, but they bump into Thumper, who lets out a roar, scaring Dot away. Sora has a boss encounter with Thumper, and after he’s defeated, Thumper flies away roaring that he’ll be back for vengeance. Sora runs to the edge of Ant Island and looks around calling for Dot, thankfully, he sees Dot slowly float upwards with her wings now big enough to allow her to fly. Sora can learn the Glide ability here if you wanted to.

After flying through the sky, Sora and Dot see the Circus Bug wagon, with P.T. Flea at the top while singing to himself about how he’ll be the richest flea in the land. The Circus Bugs are lamenting inside the wagon itself, with Flik being the most upset for lying to the colony and getting banished for Francis accidentally letting the truth come out. He suddenly breaks out of his upset when he hears Sora and Dot’s voices catch his antennas. Sora and Dot tell Flik and the Circus Bugs Hopper’s plan, and the Circus Bugs remember the bird. Flik, however, denies that it’ll never work as he starts to blame himself for being the cause of every bad thing that happens whenever he does good things. Sora would tell Flik that he told Princess Atta and the Queen how he felt, and how Flik shouldn’t give up because he’s been banished, but it isn’t enough. Then Dot gets an idea to use the same metaphor Flik showed her earlier in the film, by telling Flik to pretend the rock is a seed. Flik soaks in what Dot asked, and he remembers exactly what he told Dot, which finally lightens up his mood. He hugs Dot and tells everyone that it’s time to unleash the bird. The Circus Bugs trick P.T. Flea, and Rosie webs him up.

At this point, we have a stealth mission where Sora and Flik must guide Dot and the Blueberry Scout Troops to the tree without being spotted. This way, they can launch the bird without the grasshoppers knowing, including Hopper. Then, we have a mini-game where the goal is to scare away a certain wave of enemies ranging from grasshoppers, heartless, and nobodies. Once they are defeated, P.T. Flea is knocked out of the wagon, and does the Flaming Death act on the bird, setting it ablaze. After crash-landing, Sora uses a either a blizzard or water-based ability (whichever you prefer) to douse the flames.

Hopper bellows whose idea was this, and Flik announces that the bird was his idea. Princess Atta, in shock, responds “Flik, you came back.”. In response, Flik says, “Of course I did, you’re highness. I wasn’t gonna let the grasshoppers torture you.”. The second boss encounter with Thumper commences, and it is much harder than the original fight. After defeating Thumper again, Hopper is angry at Sora for intervening. Sora tells Hopper he was gonna squish the Queen, and the ants gasp in horror. Dot tells her mother “It’s true!”, and Hopper says “I hate it when someone gives away the ending.”. Only instead of Flik, he instead punches Sora and calls him dirt, and then an ant. He tells the ants “Let these two be an example to ALL you ants! Ideas are dangerous things! You are mindless, soil-shoving losers, put on this Earth to serve us!”.

Flik, with his last breath tells Hopper he’s wrong, and that ants aren’t meant to serve grasshoppers. Flik gets back on his feet and says “I know what ants are like, Hopper. They’ve been mean to me. They refused to give my ideas a chance. And they lied to me as I have to them!”. While Atta and all the other ants that were mean to Flik earlier hear what Flik is saying, they drop their heads in shame, realizing that Flik isn’t wrong about how they treated him. However, this wasn’t a personal attack. Some of the ants, raise their heads up again when they hear Flik continue, “But deep down, I know there is some good in them.”. Then Sora helps out Flik with calling out Hopper for how he’s much worse, and how it’s really the grasshoppers who should be serving the ants.

Princess Atta steps in front of Flik boldly, and the other ants and Circus Bugs take one step forward. Then she echoes the same words Hopper told her earlier, “First rule of leadership, everything is your fault.”. Hopper is taken aback by this, and Princess Atta continues, “You see, Hopper, nature has a certain order. The ants pick the food, the ants keep the food, and the grasshoppers... leave!”. The Queen orders the ants to attack, and Molt jumps out of his skin, running away in fear.

Similar to the wave of heartless battle in “Kingdom Hearts 2”, Sora and Flik fight off the grasshoppers. Then, when they stuff Hopper into the cannon, it starts raining. The ants run into the anthill for shelter and protection, but a raindrop hits Dim, and Hopper rolls himself to where Dim will land, launching himself out of the cannon and snatching Flik in the process.

Sora and Princess Atta rescue Flik from his clutches and flies them to the Bird’s nest. After breaking free from the raindrop they were trapped in, the boss fight with Hopper begins. Sora and Flik fight Hopper as Atta watches with worry, and Sora was able to gain the upper hand and defeat him. Sora and Flik tricked Hopper by sending him to the real Bird, and the bird snatches Hopper, feeding him to the Bird’s three chicks who just hatched from their eggs.

The next day, all the ants are shown trying out Flik’s grain harvester invention, which indeed turned out to be useful for cutting down entire stalks. All the Circus Bugs and their newest member, Molt say goodbye to the ants and Sora, and The Queen takes off her crown, passing the torch to Princess Atta, who finally feels confident to accept her new position, with Dot ending up wearing Atta’s old tiara in turn. Shortly after, Flik comes back to present Sora a new keyblade he had just crafted as a little parting gift (You decide what Flik’s keyblade for Sora should be called). As for Heimlich, he just popped out of his cocoon, fulfilling his dream to be “a beautiful butterfly”, despite his wings being too small. The Circus Bugs say goodbye, and the Queen thanks Sora for all he’s done for the Colony. After Sora seals the keyhole for Ant Island, The Queen says goodbye to Sora, and Sora leaves, ending the world, “Ant Island”.

And that’s how I would have “A Bug’s Life” executed in “Kingdom Hearts”. If anyone wants to suggest revisions, feel free to leave a comment.

Founders of New York's Francis Irv Gallery Take on the Dallas Invitational

Earlier this month, dealers flocked to the heart of Texas for the Dallas Art Fair.

Despite nearly being attacked by a rogue collector there last year, I was sad to not be in attendance this time.

Suffice to say, it’s always lively.

To find out what I was missing, I asked my friends Sam Marion Wilken and Shane Rossi, who run the scrappy new Manhattan gallery Francis Irv, to take some photos while they exhibited at a satellite fair, the Dallas Invitational.

Let’s see what they got up to… —Annie Armstrong

Checking in at HQ for the week, the Fairmont Hotel.

Dan Desmond, Anna Raginskaya, Sam Gordon at the Joule’s “speakeasy”.

In the morning, we unpacked and blocked out our install. Works by Karla Kaplun (left) and Rachel Fäth (right).

Later in the day at Sophie Giraux’s opening at And Now. Sophie is on the right pictured with Jenny Borland (of JENNY’S).

A quick gallery selfie as we traversed to Tabboo!’s opening at Dallas Contemporary.

Clémence White (of Karma) noting Tabboo!’s depiction of himself as an Egyptian God.

Shane (hand coming from the left) and Clémence (right) appreciating Tabboo!’s suit.

Later that night, we celebrate Sophie’s successful opening. Here is Sophie, balloon rose, and a massive LCD screen.

After finalizing our install, we made it to Vojtěch Kovařík’s opening at The Power Station. Here is Kyle Thurman sitting in Jacob Kassay’s permanent sculpture in the courtyard.

Artists Danny McDonald and Kyle Thurman.

The evening continued to the Berghain of Dallas: The Round-Up. Our Uber driver obliged our requests for Gary Stewart’s country heartbreaker She’s Actin’ Single, I’m Drinkin’ Doubles.

He clocked out and came along.

Design Blog Week 1 and 2

Reflection: Overall I think this subject is going to be challenging for me. I want to do well and improve my sound design skill, but after looking at the others from the class and how proficient they are, it is just a high bar that I have to try to reach for. I know I don't have to compare my works to theirs, however I think their work is the standard that I should try to aspire and hold myself to. I know that I am not as good because I haven't had as long specifically working on music and sound design specifically, even had much less familiarity with programs that are 'easier' to use, which is why I am using reaper. As a specific reflection to my first project, I think it was an interesting idea to try something different, but I should stick to what I know in the more serene and dreamlike creations. The feedback I received was all mostly valid, even if I had tried the suggestions in previous iterations and didn't work that well. The big takeaway was that LOOK AT WHEN THINGS ARE DUE. Don't just think what you heard was what it was. Dummy. For the video I didn't do for this class and asked for feedback for, I believe it was also useful to understand others perspectives on it. I will admit it did hurt a little to see how many mistakes there were and were pointed out as I spent a lot of time on it, but thats just me needing to learn to take feedback better. There were a few takeaways from that I think I need to focus on. Not having a speaker setup is a detriment, however the ability to use the room next to where we are is something I will be strongly considering using just to mix speakers not headphones, as a lot of the nuance I had in this one was lost to bad mixing. The second is bring the overall volume up, I have a big habit of just making sure that I take the entire mix down in volume. I assume it is just because I am not confident in what I make ever, so the mixing just stay at negative 20 decibels by default. Research: For the technical research aspect, these weeks were spent looking into how to properly utilize my DAW of choice, Reaper. Specifically parts that I am not that familiar with. The main focus was on panning audio and I found out how to quite quickly through this informative video, however I never found anything that told me exactly how to dynamically change the pan throughout the song, so I will experiment and figure out how I will do it on my own.

As an extension of my technical research, for my Academic I also looked into an article by Francis Rumsey on how underutilized Binaural Audio is and how in these more modern times it is becoming more widespread and useful. The applications mentioned were interesting but I disagree with him on how 'little' it was used in the last 10 years. Plenty of different artists and creators were using it, they just weren't as prominent and flew under the radar.

Also my professional practice research I decided to look into creation of Foley this week. This article by Joanna Fang delves into how foley initially came to be and how it has evolved over time to be what it is today, an extension of sound design that makes sounds sound more like what we perceive that they sound like. After this I looked into surreal art pieces as that was what I was going to make my Gina Moore and then found this video which is surreal, but I found it more funny than anything and was curious why. I then found two articles by Giovanni Sabato and Alex Borgella on why we laugh, which I mostly found interesting, and informed how I made the project later, but neithers theoretical approach to comedy lined up with why I found the surrealist video funny. So I decided to use that same level of random = funny that I saw in the video and implement it into the flowing whippets I chose. Whatever came to mind I decided to make it first then see if it was funny second. Progress:

Through the multiple iterations of my Gina Moore, I realised that it was going to seem unfinished. Not because it was, but because that was what made me laugh in that research I did. In seeing things that were random or didn't make sense, I found humour, and so if I made something that seemed wrong like the whippets saying whippet, it would induce that same feeling. The multiple iterations of different words initially, then falling on just whippets, then balancing being able to hear what they are saying and just sounding like I did nothing, I don't think my final product hit that but it was an interesting trial to see how I would fare straying away from my usual style. I have been looking through new pads on Spitfire Labs and working on using the older ones I used for other projects in different ways so I could have a better repertoire for if I get approached by someone. If I do I hope I can try to provide a good piece for them, because I would like to do that, however I am acutely aware that my skill level isn't at what I need it to be, so if it doesn't work out then thats okay, I can just hone my own practice and improve.

Pitch

Preference

1. Inner West Film Festival

I'm really interested in film festival, wants to learn a lot about organize / prepare a film festival. Heard there will be comedy films this year. Comedy is really difficult. Great experience for other nations' or international film festival in the future.

2. Spectrum

I'm really interested in post-production. Future career may be editor or Foley artist. This seems to be a big company with mature internship system.

3. Studio 13 - Francis Cai

I'm always interested in art. Great chance to learn how an artist prepares for his artwork and exhibition. This may be helpful for my future career decision-making.

After the pitch, the question about future 5 years:

I can see myself be an editor, sound recordist or Foley artist in a team

or be an artist, do small art projects by myself / collab with friends

Take Wyatt Earp as a biopic and it is a superb and fair film. Compare it to Tombstone which was more of a Western and it’s lacking the flair. However, it ends abruptly, and it is miscast. Cosner (and i am a fan) doesn’t really make a good Earp. Dennis Quaid who I am also a fan of, doesn’t make a good Doc. This was 1994, in the 80s I might have a dif...

"THE SUSPICIONS OF MR. WHICHER: THE MURDER AT ROAD HILL HOUSE" (2011) Review

Roughly five years ago, a relative of mine had suggested I watch a BBC television movie about a Victorian-era murder story. Although it aired on the Amazon Prime Video streaming channel (and still does to this day), I had assumed it was a documentary. To my surprise, it turned out to be a television movie called "THE SUSPICIONS OF MR. WHICHER: THE MURDER AT ROAD HILL HOUSE".

Before watching the movie, I had quickly discovered that the production was an adaptation of Kate Summerscale's 2008 non-fiction book, "The Suspicions of Mr. Whicher or The Murder at Road Hill House", winner of Britain's Samuel Johnson Prize for Non-Fiction for that year. Hence, the reason why I had initially assumed this was a documentary. The book was an account of the real-life murder of three year-old Francis Saville Kent in 1860 Wiltshire. Francis, the three year-old son of a "Factory Commissioner" for the Home Office named Samuel Saville Kent, was found murdered on the Road Hill House estate in Wiltshire, leased by his father. The child's nursemaid, Elizabeth Gough, had announced his disappearance. Two estate hands eventually found Francis' body inside a privy-house, with knife wounds on his chest and hands, and his throat deeply slashed. Outrage over the brutal murder of a prominent man's child, Scotland Yard had dispatched Detective Inspector Jack Whicher to solve the case.

Whicher's assignment to the case proved to be a godsend for Gough, who immediately fell under the suspicions of Police Superintendent John Foley of nearby Trowbridge. The latter would have pressed for her arrest if Whicher had not cleared her of any further suspicions. However, the Scotland Yard detective's suspicions rested on another member of the household, namely Kent's sixteen year-old daughter, Constance Emily Kent. Whicher also began to suspect Constance's brother, fifteen year-old William Saville Kent. The detective believed Constance (with her brother's help) had sought revenge against their former nanny, Mary Pratt Kent, who had married their father following the death of their mother. There had been suspicions that Kent and his second wife had an affair during his marriage to Constance and William's mother. Since young Francis had been conceived during their father's second marriage, Whicher suspected Constance or both of them of murdering the three year-old boy.

"THE SUSPICIONS OF MR. WHICHER: THE MURDER AT ROAD HILL HOUSE" did not strike me one of the most fascinating murder mysteries I have seen on film or television. This did not surprise me, considering the television movie proved to be more of a fictionalized account of an actual case that had been solved over 160 years ago. I would say "THE MURDER AT ROAD HILL HOUSE" was more of a historical drama or a "true life" crime movie than a murder mystery. After all, it did not take the protagonist very long to produce a believable suspect, halfway into the narrative. The movie eventually became a mental tug-of-war between Whicher and Constance, in which the former struggled to convince the latter to confess to the murder. At the same time, Whicher and his close friend and colleague, Adolphus "Dolly" Williamson, raced to find physical evidence to support his suspicions. Despite their success in discovering hard evidence against Constance, the pair's efforts ended up being stymied or sabotaged by Superintendent Foley, head of the local police. Not only did Foley resented an outsider becoming the lead investigator in the Kent case, he seemed offended that any working-class man would accuse the sixteen year-old daughter of a respectable, middle-class citizen like Samuel Kent, of murder. What made this even worse for Whicher is that many of the locals and the media seemed to share Foley's class bias.

I have to give kudos for the movie's production values. I believe David Roger's production designs really captured the look and style of 1860s Britain. And I believe he did so without being either extravagant or cheap. Roger's work was ably assisted by Jo Kornstein's set decorations, Kate Evenden's art direction and Matt Gray's photography. Lucinda Wright's costume designs managed to perfectly captured Roger's balanced look for the movie's setting. Were her costumes accurate for 1860s Britain? I honestly cannot say so. Regardless of accuracy, I do believe Wright's costumes managed to perfectly captured the essence of the movie's characters across both gender and class.

"THE SUSPICIONS OF MR. WHICHER: THE MURDER AT ROAD HILL HOUSE" featured some solid performances. At least from the supporting cast. Performers like William Beck, Emma Fielding, Kate O'Flynn, Tim Piggott-Smith, Ben Miles, Donald Sumpter, Charlie Hiett, Julian Firth, Sarah Ridgeway and Antony Byrne all gave competent and solid performances. However, I believe a few did give what I consider to be the movie's best performances. Naturally, I felt Paddy Considine was sensational as the solid, yet intelligent Jack Whicher. I thought he did a superb job of conveying Whicher's growing frustration of the impediments that made his investigation to reach a successful conclusion. Equally sensational was Alexandra Roach, who gave an enigmatic and skillful performance as the cool and supercilious Constance Kent. Peter Capaldi's portrayal of Constance's father, Samuel Savill Kent, struck me as surprisingly complex and ambiguous. Capaldi did a great job of conveying hints that the public's suspicions of his character might be justified. I also found myself very impressed by Tom Georgeson's performance as the narrow-minded Superintendent Foley. The actor did an excellent job of portraying his character's class bigotry and resentment toward Whicher's role in the investigation.

As murder mysteries go, "THE SUSPICIONS OF MR. WHICHER: THE MURDER AT ROAD HILL HOUSE" seemed like an ineffectual effort. When the main protagonist manages to discover the true culprit halfway into the production, it seems a waste of time to label the movie as a murder mystery. However, "THE SUSPICIONS OF MR. WHICHER: THE MURDER AT ROAD HILL HOUSE" proved to be a very effective and well-done historical drama about a famous murder case, thanks to a skillful direction from James Hawes, a first-rate adaptation written by Neil McKay and superb performances from a cast led by Paddy Considine. As a fictionalized account of a famous true crime, the television movie proved to be quite fascinating.
