Anime, Music, Manga err... YUNYU NEWS!

-
As we reported from Supanova Sydney, Yunyu and Queenie Chan's collaboration is soon to be available from Madman and Yunyu.com.au. The best way to get involved in this marriage of music, manga and (ani)mation is to grab yourself a QUIRTZ!

Just like with Twisted Tales and its artist mish-mash, a QUIRTZ is a CD, a stylish Tee and a QR code billboard to share the love with all of your friends. In my case, that's 2 whole people!!!

TWISTED TALES and QUIRTZ are available now and so are tickets to Yunyu's live shows which will be held in Sydney and Melbourne!

Check out all of the details, and a look at TWISTED TALES episode 1 (Dorothy), after the jump!

In her own words, Yunyu says "Twisted Tales is becoming some kind of a shared universe where I invite many collaborators from various mediums to participate in…of late, with Coolshite's radioplay, it has well and truly become a transmedia project.

Twisted Tales is what happens when Fairytales come to live in our universe. The Cinderellas leave by midnight too, except Mr Midnight is a plastic surgeon intent on perfection until it's no longer possible. At which point…they leave By Midnight..."

Madman says "(we are) proudly supporting the music and manga collaboration, TWISTED TALES, which combines the talents of singer songwriter Yunyu and the visuals of manga artist Queenie Chan along with a host of amazing animators. Twisted Tales gives us a darkly alternate vision of our favourite fairy tales. Read on for tour information!

Not only is there an innovative method of music distribution involved -- through a Tshirt that contains a QR code which provides the music and video clips. The QUIRTZ is available now here on Madman and directly from Yunyu.com.au

We featured Yunyu and Queenie Chan on the Madman Panel at Supanova Sydney last weekend, as reported here on Geek of Oz. Check out the first clip, Dorothy, and get the update below on Yunyu’s new clip and Show dates in Melbourne and Sydney!"


Episode 2 of Twisted Tales -- Bluebeard’s post is here!

Shows:

Melbourne -- 22 June -- Revolver upstairs

Tickets are available from Moshtix

Sydney -- 30 June -- Carriageworks

Sydney tickets are available from Ticketmaster.

Yunyu or X-23? You be the judge!

Home Again review

Reese Witherspoon is having a moment and it’s a pleasure to see. It is so satisfying to witness that the actress who gave us the utterly original and terrifying, Tracy Flick, has still so many more surprises for us. That super sharp, full of intensity, scarily Machiavellian high-school girl (perhaps sociopath) promised an actress who does not hold back. Reese commits fully and with real vigour and we have seen this over and over again in roles like Legally Blonde  (the original is still so fun), Walk the line , Vanity Fair and more. Recently the critically-acclaimed and Emmy award winning TV series Big Little Lies which is sensational, as well as her role in it. In Home Again Reese has returned to the romantic comedy genre which she has championed in her career many times and sadly, to some questionable results. I know Sweet Home Alabama  is a favourite among many but sadly it did not ignite me. I am quite fond of Just Like heaven  with Mark Ruffalo (don’t judge) which I

Today I have the pleasure of speaking to writer Tom Taylor and artist James Brouwer, creators of my favourite book of recent time , The Deep: Here be Dragons.  In case you haven't heard, The Deep: Here be Dragons is the Aurealis award winning graphic novel from Aussie duo, Tom Taylor and James Brouwer, and the patriotic streak doesn't end there. This book is beautifully presented by the good folks at the independent Aussie comics company, Gestalt. Follow on after the jump and not only will you get an interview with some of Australia's best and brightest but you will get a look at some interior art and an EXCLUSIVE look at an all new piece of art from the forthcoming VOLUME 2, The Vanishing Island. Intriguing?
