Hey Ana, isn't "Krazy" spelt with a "c" not a "k" – for example "crazy images".
If not, should I spell "Martin el loco" like "Martin el loko" so I can be kool,
not cool <g,d&r>(grinning,dukking, and running).
Sorry about that,
Martin "El loco/loko" (digame, qual es tu favorito)
Hey, Martin, my english is bad, but at least I know how to speel crazy! It's a
matter of "name design". We were waiting these days for the confirmation of the
TM from the international organization (I don't know the name of this, Jesus
and one of the "abogados" (lawyers or attorneys?) have done all the papers).
But now we have a S.A. (sociedad anonima) with a TMed name. So things are going
serious <g> But not us! And you have to see the logo. Jesus designed and it is
awesome… and really crazy. But people like our image (and clients too). It's
elegant and cool, but also vanguard and with the spicy of krazyness that all of
us need (I need a lot!)
Regarding the Ks, instead of Cs. We used that in Spain, but in the underground
enviroments (not computer based). It's a kind of breaking classic cultural and
language konventions. All started with the OKUPAS. La OKUPACION (invasion), was
a movement that started in the late seventies, with gangs of young homeless
people that invade unhabited houses (taht have been in that state for years)
demanding affordable homes from the administration.
I like a lot Martin el Loko (a lot more than Animatrix 🙂 Sounds like a pirate
(a world that I love… are there anything that I don't love in this world?
Yes, MS-DOS! <g>) And I think that it's a famous character from old spanish
literature.

Ana,
that's quite an explanation <g>. The youth everywhere love to break language
conventions. One of my favourites is using "ph" instead of "f". Phor example,
"Phrankly my dear, I don't give a damn" (from Gone with the Wind). I think the
Germans probably started the "k" for "c" revolution and it ended up with
widescale acceptance <g>.
It's a shame you don't like "Animatrix", it was an amalgamation of 3 words
(animation, matrix, and tricks [trix]) with some sexual innuendo thrown in for
the sleazy side of my, uh, business. Oh well, you can't win them all 🙁
In Spain we are open for any culture, but I think the K comes from the Vasques
(because their native language was prohibited during Franco's dictatorship).
You know, as soon as democracy started up, citys everywhere, names, started to
take the native language names, instead of the castillian ones (i.e.
Baracaldo-Barakaldo) The funny thing is that only a few people (compared to the
main population) knows a perfect vasco, so hey start to put the K everywhere.
It was a fashion that days. However, krazy images was not intended to be in the
same way. The last thing that made us to take the name was Krazy Kat.
Hey! I like Animatrix. I was only kidding. I don't think Martin el Loko will be
ok in your presentation cards <g> However, it was a great nick name 🙂
ana /krazy images
What? Franko prohibited alternative kultures and enforced the Kastillian
language, instead? Sounds like he was a krazy klown <g>.
Martin "too hip" Foster
PS: we'd better take the conversation over to "Take 5/General" because we might
be considered reactionary for breaking the rules <g>.
Yeah, Martin,
I've been trying to follow this thread . . . .
Was Altamira a famous (but ekkcentric) Basque Komposer?
