For a very long time I’m planning to detain for an interview Zdenko Basic… practically from the beginning of my blogging… Somehow other topics and other people entered into life of this digital creature called Body Pixel…
During this year’s edition of Animafest – World Festival of Animated Film, Zdenko was detained in the quarters of the festival and examined about his crime: illustration and animation. This verdict is announced: life sentence to be served in the deepest part of the fairy land with a working obligation of doing only moving pictures and illustrations. The execution sentence starts now!

Time to learn some new skill in the fields of textile art and electronic geekery for girlz (boyz could jump in, too!)… Learning basics of Electronic Embroidery, LED Robot Embroidery and the usage of LilyPad Arduino with Becky Stern and Diana Eng is gonna be smooth and creative… very cool, geek-ish and chic at the same time…
