@LordMordred yes
@nevfy thanks!
My plan is this: learn several kanji (like, the 500 more important or so), but just what they look like and what they mean. And then as i learn what they mean, starting reading texts with furiganas, and learn their spelling in context, not just each one isolated like most people learn them.
This is "Morgana", my latest composition -- my latest, little, evanescent Castle-in-the-air, all made of Arabic and Turkish sounds: Bendir, Oud, Bouzuki, and Derbake

From Wikipedia:
A Fata Morgana (Italian: [ˈfaːta morˈɡaːna]) is a complex form of superior mirage visible in a narrow band right above the horizon. The Italian term Fata Morgana translates the name of the Arthurian sorceress Morgan le Fay ("Morgan the Fairy"), due to a belief that these mirages, often seen in the Strait of Messina, were fairy castles in the air or false land conjured up by her witchcraft to lure sailors to their deaths.
The video merges two clips:
(1) Excerpts from "Desert Tortoise Trouble" (https://archive.org/details/Desert_Tortoise_Trouble).Shot in 2019 by ClarkCountyNV. It focuses on the "Challenges the Desert Tortoise face in their changing Mojave Desert habitat."
(2) A video that I shot myself on the train from Ottignie to Leuven, Belgium, a few days ago.
I tried to render the idea of a railway appearing in the desert, while the cute desert tortoise moves on. A mirage of a mirage, one might observe.

@rick well i had seen it already at it's western premiere in amazon and all, but of course seeing it in the big screen is an experience in another level.
@rick yes the last one
@OrangeyIs yeah the experience multiplies tenfold, no matter that i had seen the movie before at it's western launch.
