But dude smile, remember insignificant is also fun, crazy, and powerful all at the same time.

lmao i'm not depressed nor does this poem even apply to me that much
Wow. Very intersting.
I have to say that I truly enjoyed your flash. It is good to see something else than the violence and sadistic humor(which I love) all the time. I gave youa 9 simply because there were a few places where it was hard to read the text, but other than that, I think that this was a masterfully well=done flash.
As for your argument against free will, I have been having the same argument with my friends as of late. Two of them believe there is no such thing as free will, because of all the laws of biological processes. I understand their argument, but refute it all the same. The only thing that made me watch your flash was an interest in the experimental and artistically done flash cartoons.
At any rate., keep it up. I hope to see more from you in the future. Thank you for opening doors with your wonderfully done flash.

thank ya and the poem doesn't reflect me entirely so it's not exactly what i think
Well done!
This was VERY well done. The music most definately set the tone for it and fit it to a T. Also, the animation was very nice; crude in some parts, and nice and clean looking in others, giving it an all-round great look. Nice blending of animation with video capture as well.
One note on constructive criticism would just be to try and spice up the text. You put many transitions in, but the text still seemed bland, though very powerful in its meaning.
wow
Very deep. fucking amazing! =D 5/5
hmmm, yes.
I agree that this is art more than what is considered conventional flash, which I thank you for making, as the more art animations that come around, the more people can be prouder of those 'visual experiments' they've made in flash, which we all have. I have mountains of complex frame by frames that I don't put on the net because they would seem pointless. So what you are doing is opening windows.
While I commend you and 'appreciate' your animation, I have to criticise (sorry). There is a big difference between poetry and philosiphy, and poetry lacking philosiphy is no more than a self obsessive phase teenagers go through that it's hoped we grow out of. You did have philosiphy, with your comparisons with the rat race of life, but no new ideas, it was mainly a big steaming lump of emotions. If you manage to bring new ideas to the table, perceptions that people haven't considered, and express your ideas artisticly (opposed to your emotions) then poetic paths will open for you. And you will learn to think, and become and interesting person.
Bearing in mind: their is also difference between emotions and feelings, and opinions. Your views themselves are still important and useful.
Observing is important, which you are good at I think.
Creativity is important, which you definately have.
Now use these observations, be creative and think. You can come up with wildly original ideas, and appeal to more than just our humble little internet (but still become incredibly celebrated on the net).
I wish you luck in future endeavours.
