Yuki Kajiura Birthday Project 2013!

[littlefelicita]

^ When ?

... later

 

[george1234]

Okay so I updated the logs here with the new info (some people joined, some other sent photos) viewtopic.php?f=5&t=4057&p=223738#p223738

so far 22 people have submitted stuff out of 48 (plan is for the participants to reach 50). From the 22 only Liana and Casarina and HIS MASK have sent poems too, so I am expecting from the rest of you as well.

I will send reminder pms to people that havent send either photos, poems or both, later today.

For people that dont know how to make the poem, please look at comment #31 here http://canta-per-me.net/2013/05/contrib ... hday-2013/ also the peom needs to be in the language in which most of the song titles used are (eg aki is planning to make one in latin with the Madoka OST titles, if you know japanese you can make it with japanese titles (but not romanised))

Also if you havent provided your details for the map yet (username, continent, country, city) either here, on the email, or that newspost, please do.

The reason why we are speeding this up, is because Varete will be on vacations for 2 weeks time during July, so most of the book needs to be done before she leaves (but its possible she will have internet access there).

Also there's some sort change of plans and the table of contents drawing will be done by joel_jmang instead of tabete.mio

 

[Alphard Sokaina]

I sent 4 photos. George, please confirm you've got them.

 

[george1234]

[Kugayama]

george1234, this was a spur-of-the-moment picture taken today with my mobile (former Adelaide Girls High School building, Grote Street, Adelaide, South Australia), but Kerahna thought it was good enough to submit:



Username: Kugayama (can use my real name as well which you can work out from the URL of the image)
country: Australia
city: Adelaide, South Australia

 

[george1234]

Wow it looks really pretty Why do you have a girls school ? It isnt mixed ?

are you going to submit more ?

 

[Kugayama]

^ The former Adelaide Girls High School and Adelaide Boys High School merged many years ago, all using the site of the former Adelaide Boys High School.

I can't think of any more pictures worth submitting at the moment.

You know what to do

 

[Daiima]

I've a samll issue with my poem, as I want to use French song titles for it (actually, mostly transparent English words) I'd like to include "Le Portrait de Petit Cossette" in it but that's the name of the anime, the actual song title being "The Main Theme of Petit Cossette"...

 

[george1234]

no problem with the anime title, you can include it, and are also a couple of french titles in Noir like "Le grand retour" and "les soldats" but I dunno how much of a poem you can make with only 2 titles (maybe you could also use some english ones that also exist as french)

 

[Daiima]

Oh, I didn't know about these ones. I think that would do with some other ones! (I use the Lyrics section of the site and these two ones are not in it)

 

[joel_jman]

Actually, I wasn't planing to participate at first.
But well things happened... so yeah.

Username: joel_jman
Continent: Asia
Country: Philippines
Province: Isabela/Laguna

I'll be sending the landscape(s) anytime this week.

Also, I'm done sketching the drawing for the table of contents. Just hafta color it, maybe tomorrow?

 

[juchanx3]

George, I just send my photos. Did you receive?

Lyra Laurant Oh you live near me Do want to be my friend?

 

[Daiima]

Well, that's a first try. But I'm quite satisfied with it, maybe won't I modify anything in it.

Ma Chloé aux si doux parfums de lotus
Je t'adore depuis ce beau jour de fête
Moi peignant le portrait de Petit Cossette
Toi au piano avec ce charmant rictus

Notre distance m'attriste toujours plus
Pourquoi restes-tu chez cette Margaret ?
J'ai besoin d'un signal, digne d'une esthète
De ton aura, d'une évocation, ma puce

Toute cette histoire n'est-elle qu'une fiction,
Certes romanesque mais sans prétention ?
J'attends le grand retour de ta mélodie (tes mélodies would sound better but may I betray the artist?...)

Faire un sacrifice, tel tous les soldats,
Comme tous ces saints, pour te dire aime-moi
Dois-je ? Ne teins pas cet éden en noir, m'amie.

I included almost all titles that I know that can be used in the French language, sometimes with some typographic arrangements (acute accents, hyphen).

A rough translation:

My Chloé sweetly perfumed with lotus
I adore you since this great party day
Me painting the portrait of Petit Cossette
You playing piano with this charming rictus

Our distance always makes me sadder
Why are you staying at that Margaret?
I need a signal, worthy of an esthete
Your aura, an evocation, honey

Is this whole tale only a fiction,
Indeed romanesque but unpretentious?
I'm waiting for your melody to come back

Make a sacrifice, like all the soldiers,
Like all these saints, to ask you to love me
Should I? Don't color this eden in black, my beloved.

 

[george1234]

@ Daima:

Oh, I didn't know about these ones. I think that would do with some other ones! (I use the Lyrics section of the site and these two ones are not in it)

That's because they are not literally "songs" but instrumental tracks, so they have no lyrics. You cna make your poems with titles of no-lyrics tracks too.

This poem looks great :)

@ joel: Great, you are fast, maybe you want to make more details or anything before submitting ? :)

@ juchanx3: Got them, thanks (same for outdoorpajamas)

(tes mélodies would sound better but may I betray the artist?...)

I had to change endings for my Latin poem, but I would just bold the original song title instead of the entire word, e.g. "Lacrimosarum" and "Puellaeque in somnio"
