    Very moving, really great work! Mt. Tempt is the man, his struggle makes my diabetes seem like a minor inconvenience in comparison. This really has a lot of applications, I look forward to playing with the code. Cheers…

    I am not even kidding you. I CRIED.

    This is such a beautiful thing to do, I feel how TEMPT ONE feels, when I was stripped or hindered from Writting, Painting, Music or any other thing and someone brings the opportunity back to me it makes me feel like I get part of my life back.

    But this video was honestly just pure love.



    Keep it up!
    Keep it going!
    Keep it coming!

    PLUR.

    while global warming gets brushed off by the stale-minded-corporation-butt-licking politicians, it is the work of the resourceful that will bring change. thanks for making me feel like it's 2009!

    Hi,

    My name is Philip Han and I watched "The EyeWriter" a couple weeks after it came out on Vimeo.

    I instantly cried, I straight up cried, sobbed and kept on crying for about a half an hour. You have absolutely no idea how weak I felt, how spoiled I felt, how worthless I felt.

    Right now I don't even know if this is the right place to express what I feel, but I will do so anyways.

    To make a long story short, I am relate to Tony Quan / Tempt1 on a mental level. I am overflowing with ideas, concepts and innovations but I lack any form of motivation in any given way which is how I think Tony feels. I cannot get anything done in my life, I have sickening amounts of supplies, gadgets and mental power but I can't do a single thing with it to save my own life.

    I just turned 18, and I still think back to The EyeWriter video as if it was the earliest memory of my life. I watched "7 Pounds" this evening and the ending just made me think of The EyeWriter at any given moment, so I had to watch the video again and get over some crying again.

    At the moment I feel like this is pointless, but I have learned things I can't even describe through this. Four years ago I discovered The G.R.L when I was 14 and just moved over from France where I was writing since I was 11. I told myself I was going to work for the G.R.L at that time but since then I pretty much threw away my art skills the first year I lived in America.

    Next year I am off to Beijing to study Chinese and then I'm going to college in NY or Chicago. I just hope that I will start creating, painting, programming, designing, sketching, writing, drawing, composing or whatever else I can possibly do in the nearest future possible.


    I wish you all the best and I hope to contribute once I get my life that I take for granted straightened out and productive.


    Thank you very much,

    Philip Han


    PS: Maybe I just fear that I will fail at anything I try to finish.

    Wow, good luck man! Be nice and work hard, you will get there!
  • Philip Han 1 year ago
    As you can see on my Vimeo channel I've been doing quite a bit of work in Time-Lapse lately.

    I'm definitely out of my long unmotivated mood. Somehow I just slipped out of it and kept on going.

    I still don't come anywhere as near as motivated as I was 3-4 years ago. I'm pretty sure my inner child died 2-3 years ago.


    Still heading to Beijing, just always shooting video and taking pictures, learning how to produce music (DnB mainly for now), studying hard in school, painting, sketching, drawing, editing stuff... I'm really glad that I found this video and that it affected me so much.

    Man, I've seen the laser graffiti... but this is really really cool, useful, touching, inspiring.
    Also shows graffiti-artist, programmers, hackers are not just punks but are innovators that are here to make things better.

    Bravo! I salute you :)
