You may remember a while back we posted a blog about some flash games that some students from our old high school, St Robert’s, had whipped up. Well, our old computers teacher, Mr. Keenan, has sent us two more and they are AMAZING! They are the two best of the final programs that used our characters. You can tell that they took a lot of time to make. Check them out:

Hero of the Crywolfs by Kenneth

AND

Shark Defender by Christopher

Aren’t they so well-executed and actually challenging? I had to play them a few times to win.

Last time we chose a winner and these two are so awesome that we need your help again. Let us know which one is YOUR favourite by voting on the poll on our facebook fan page. The student with the most votes will win a lil somethin-somethin! They worked so hard so please take a second of your time to cast a vote! The more votes, the better. Poll will close tomorrow – Friday, October 14th @ midnight.

We are sososo happy to announce that we’ve won 2nd place in the One of a Kind Exhibitor’s Art competition! Exhibitors were asked to interpret the theme of “love” in their own particular medium. See the OOAK’s blog entry about the winning pieces here.

We asked our fans on facebook to come up with some works of places/people/things/etc. that came to mind when they thought of the word LOVE. We got a lot of responses so thanks so much, you lovely fans you!

Here’s the final piece along with a description:

Our design was inspired by drawing connections from different fragments of words that combine together to create the idea of love. The words placed on each individual 1″ button (a medium commonly used for the promotion of messages, beliefs, interests and ideas) were collected from a group of random people’s interpretations of what the word love means to them. The words range from places to people, things, feelings, etc. We arranged all of the individual pieces into the iconic shape of the heart and included bits and pieces of the colour red to reiterate the idea of love. Although forming from a group of random words and ideas, the viewer is able to draw connections from the fragments and evoke their own thoughts and ideas of love.

After much humming and hawing and having one hell of a time deciding, we are happy to announce the winner of our shirt-naming contest! And the winner is…………

LEOR BOSHI

To Kill a Rockin’ Bird
