Why I hate conlangs
A conlang (constructed language) is one that was consciously created for some purpose—usually either fiction or global communication—rather than one that developed naturally (Crystal 2008; Wikipedia). Some well-known examples include:
Dothraki, Valyrian (Game of Thrones)
Esperanto
Na’vi (Avatar)
Quenya, Sindarin (Lord of the Rings)
Klingon (Star Trek)
Atlantean (Atlantis: The Lost…

Múría na gichiko ndaugaga múría na moko ní ara hía.
He who eateth with a spoon canst naught imagine he who eats without is getting burnt.
Yaani mtu anatumia kijiko kukula ni ngumu kurada ati mwenye hatumii kijiko anachomeka.

Final year project
Ba Illustration with Animation class of 2018
Manchester School of Art
Stop-motion 3D puppet animation based on the origin story of the Kikuyu people of Kenya.
For those who have been waiting to see the final product of my stop-motion animation, here it is. I know it took me 4 years to post, but I decided not to continue doing animation after completing this film. I moved on to exploring 3D animation and visual effects, however, this film highly influenced me to try the 3D world.
I apologise for the sound quality and the subtitles, this IS a student film and therefore I only had a few weeks to finish it.
I hope you enjoy it :)

Gifu Minarai debut announced
The current Gifu Minarai (last mentioned here) has received her professional name: “Kikuyû” (喜久有). Her debut is scheduled for 7th March 2023.
While, given the history of past Gifu GeiMaiko, it’s unlikely she’ll stay longer than 2 years or even become a Geiko, it’s always nice to see another new Maiko!
