    I’d like to give a BIG thank you to Toni Yammine who offered to help with the sound, making the animation much richer and more fun!!!

    Here’s a sneak peek of the making of, enjoy!

    I will end today’s post with a song by an ‘underground alternative’ Lebanese band from the 80’s, the Quiminboos. This song, called Behsos, is impossibly cute, authentic and funny [mostly if you understand Arabic & Lebanese accents]. It’s from the CD compilation of Lebanese alternative music, Banadoura. Have a lovely day! 🙂

    More transformation. Avatars of old cartoon characters pop up over my head.

    Transformation begins. Maya's metamorphosis to younger days.

    Suddenly I left the office and went back to the carefree days of watching Cartoons all day...

    Thus, the Zankoulizer was born!


    Here’s the story: it all started when @arzleb changed his avatar to Grandizer. It looked odd but beautiful on its own in the middle of real-faces avatars. Then the trend started spreading, and each started replacing their photo with that of their favourite cartoon! Until @SamerKaram named it to: #ThemeThursday or #Thth. I must say my Twitter feed turned to a colorful page reminiscent of the old days when I would finish studying and watch Captain Majed or a Disney movie… It was a beautiful time travel day! 😉

    I’ll now let you enjoy ‘A whole new world’ from the soundtrack of Aladdin. Good old days 😀

    Cheers!
