I debuted my cartoon in the midst of an art show this wednesday. Despite being in the absolute back of the show, I still managed to garner a line of anticipatory viewers throughout a good chunk of the night. Things did wane near the end, but I still had an impressive amount of viewers (from my point of view anyway). Overall reception seemed to be pretty good. Most people who knew who I was wound up hugging me, giving me beer or other great things in congratulations for a job well done. Several people got offended and walked out before it was over. There were even a few children whom were almost certainly corrupted by my work.

So, here's the deal. The piece isn't done yet. I'd like to add another two segments onto it, but since the filesize is so huge, things would almost certainly become a pain in my ass to combine. Rather, I think I'll release the piece over 5 days, one a day when it's actually finished. This way, if people prefer one segment to another, they won't stop watching before a segment they would like better comes up. Individual ratings on each of the segments seems like a benefit as well. While I don't want to break the thing up, I don't really see any other way around it.

Oh well...
