Fave Flash Flicks from OFFF

Walking is a whimsical little flash clip, one of the finalists from OFFF - the online flash film festival which recently was held in Barcelona. My other favorite picks leaned to the surreal - Cuando suenan los superheroes, the Diego Alvarez offering, Wendidali, and PopDisorder. (flash warning - duh!)
Walking is beautiful.

And PopDisorder is the nuts. Wow, that's amazing. It's like glitch music in animated form.

How come the others aren't clickable? I'd like to try out the games and interactives but I can't find a way to access them.
"Cuando suenan los superheroes" was mildly disturbing. Dissection, erosion and decay of comic book characters coupled with images of still life and nature. Not sure what the artist was trying to say there. That he watches super heroes wither and die only to be born again? Or something. Green Lantern is a yellow girl who when dissected becomes several little green fish with human heads. I think it loses much in the translation.
Walking was VERY cool, and reminded me of that other flash animation a couple years back about the egg with legs running all over the planet. Can't remember the link though. Anyone else remember that one?

Simolik_Attitude by Dawid Marcinkowski in the interactive section is a must-see. Very noir... okay I'll shut up.

Great link! ...and for my two cents, I think OFFF should be renamed the "Festival of Online Flash Film"...F-OFF.
