A repeat but a reminder that we live in a a world of sights as well as sounds and a little extra effort does make a difference.
"In the Pines", also known as "Where Did You Sleep Last Night?", "My Girl" and "Black Girl", is a traditional American folk song originating from two songs, "In the Pines" and "The Longest Train", both of whose authorship is unknown and date back to at least the 1870s. The songs originated in the Southern Appalachian area of the United States in the contiguous areas of East Tennessee and Kentucky, Western North Carolina and Northern Georgia.
Versions of the song have been recorded by many artists in numerous genres, but it is most often associated with American bluegrass musician Bill Monroe and American blues musician Lead Belly, both of whom recorded very different versions of the song in the 1940s and 1950s.
In 1964, a version of the song by English Beat music group the Four Pennies reached the top-twenty in the United Kingdom. A live rendition by American grunge band Nirvana, based on Lead Belly's interpretation, was recorded during their MTV Unplugged performance in 1993, and released the following year on their platinum-selling album, MTV Unplugged in New York.

In this episode of Season Zero, we take a look back at the original Siri Watu Concept executed in a 3D proof of concept. The idea never really went beyond this clip, as we were ill-equipped 10 years ago to know where to take this clip once we made it. Since then, Cape Town and South Africa have begun making interesting animated projects; I work to eventually make Siri Watu one of these great projects.")
