CONGRATULATIONS

Very good work on good substantial basis (very much wasted on Iranian.com). Very tough to do an "idea" of a seeming "improvisation" in front of an audience (that by the way, claps too soon). 

I wonder how it would present itself in collaboration with a different musician and e.g. just some of the hand-movements and consequent sounds  on e.g a play on daf.

Best of "luck" with the hard work, twisting "sensitivities" and of course with good wishes ....

The tempo of his tapping matches the slogan: "Marg Bar Dictator!"

I kind of liked it actually...

You could hear the chants of the crowds. But I sort of got the message. I think...

The blonde in the high heels at the end showing up typically late, ruined it a bit for me though. Can't they do something about that?

Mind you he's fully Fookin' Nutz. But cool idea.

Libya will be free by next week and we'll still be sitting on our asses, busy creating random 'art' pieces and video montages of how miserable we are.
While we're at it we should muster up an online petition voicing our anger at the academy for not mentioning Panahi.
Waste of time...
