I have been off blogging because of a problem with my ethernet connection, making me use my 56 kps internal modem rather than my 100 Mps ethernet.
No fault with my Mac.
The fault lies with my Internet Service Provider, and hopefully this will be resolved this week.
I have the proud privilege to announce a new blog by my better half, Annikki.
It is a world's first - The Mobile Snowman / Liikuva Lumiukko.
Her site is devoted to her winter passion, creating objects out of snow and ice. This has led her to a new art form - Snowmen that movee.
Her partner in this venture is our grandson, Samuel (11) who has had the passion to promote the idea and help Annikki develop it.
I had featured a few stills of her idea on this blog. Now it has bloomed into a site of its own, including a video clip which has been posted on YouTube.
The quality of the video taken by me is not ideal. I hope I can improve the quality and produce a movie of this concept.
My thanks to Vishwanath Mallabadi, a professional photographer here in Oulu, who has taken some better videos, which I am using to create a movie.
Congratulations Annikki and Samu. This is a truly unique development in art and play which children and adults all around the world (where they have access tto "snowman snow") will truly enjoy.
