I've been playing with imovie, lots of fun. This is a video (please click on the image) I shot with the Canon G3 a while back - an avante garde punk street performer/poseur (?) in Shinjuku, bloody funny. Please let me know if you have any problems with this file. I made it as small as I could - around 1.4 MG so I fear it's pretty compressed and grainy. Hard to see the breakneck speed with which she was banging her head.

Update: I have uploaded a 2.7 MG version too, for those of you with fat connections.

Update: I recieved this email from a reader a while back:

I just thought I should add, if you didn't know, that this is a man who calls himself Maria Cross... or techniqually it is the name of his ''band". I am living in Tokyo for a few months and met Maria in this same spot at the East Exit of Shinjuku station. He is actually a very nice person and I have gone to his concert in a small live house. Just didn't want everyone to think he was a woman. ^__^ In fact, I found this site by looking for a picture of him to show someone. Enjoy your time in Tokyo!!! If you go see him again, chances are you'll see me there dancing too!!
