hi to anyone i met a ‘this is not art’ and is, by the slightest chance, reading this. wow. fun. in other news… did anyone know channel ten was busted for subliminal advertising during the arias? and now, due to a very sus verdict, it seems a flash of 2 frames is considered subliminal while a flash of 3 frames is veritably liminal. media watch has the details. video.
my tour of octoberlaide is tearing through time and space… limited to october and adelaide respectively. posters!
zeal is in the portable film festival! my clip for salt is up for voting. gosh i hate these voting things. damn lazy event promoters putting the onus on the artists! bah! i should be spending this time making things. but i’m not. i’m here convincing you to vote for me. you’ll be happy to know that i spent the last few months making something instead of convincing you to vote for me. and here (vote for me) it is! a new clip for the impossibly lustrous: FAUX PAS and his track Coach.
hooray! there’s another secret new faux pas clip by me up on youtube/zealtv too and i think it’s better. those of you with the faux pas changes EP might have an inkling as to what it might be… have a look why don’t you. and while you’re there check out my shiny new “channel honours”. i’m the #89th most viewed musician in australia today. that’s going in the pool room.
and thanks to the people who donated their cats. i’m sorry i couldn’t bring all of them back to earth. kittens burn up surprisingly fast on re-entry.

they will come, take a photo of it, print it, cut it out and take a photo of the photo.
got through one bar today. 16 frames. more tonight.
in other news, today i discovered that if you google “zeal” [yes, i google myself] this is the third ranking site… at least if you google me in australia. i didn’t do a single thing to rank that high. thank you wordpress. i love you.
my name’s bob, i make music as zeal. i make animation as robert jarvis. this is my new website. what it will become, i do not know. still a few kinks to iron out like the strange mouse over properties of the link below (now fixed -ed.).
but right now - a ringtone! a ringtone written by me, played on a semi-stolen toy piano, playing on your phone… you’ve got a call. a voice says…
Zeal is 23 year-old Adelaidien, Robert Jarvis. He makes down-beat experimentapop in his bedroom studio and animated music videos about cats in space on his bedroom floor.
