This is Leo's Song, a hand drawn animation by Impactist, a husband-wife creative team in Portland, Oregon. From their description: "When a geometric visitor from another planet becomes your new roommate and shares with you the tragic state of its home world, you drop your guitar and see what you can do."

This is also my 100th liked video on Vimeo. After 18 months on this video sharing site, I'm continually blown away by the creative community that has grown around their simple mission: people connecting through video. From group projects and curated channels (or one of your own)... to high definition experiments and a cheerful staff with incredible ideas... there's never a dull moment.

The pessimist says it won't last: that the site will be discovered by massive hordes who disregard the ground-rules and will get bought out by suits. But I think Vimeo has found the right recipe: a healthy dose of discussion between its members and a steady balance of joy within its videos. It just keeps getting better. No matter what happens, I've found camaraderie and delight within... a creative spirit that outlasts the latest fads, economies, and hardware. And with folks like Kelly and Daniel sharing their talents, I'm so there.

Update: Scratch that... 101st liked video. Lucky number 100 goes to A Tiny Piece of the Year by Kristen Schaal (who you might know from Flight of the Conchords). Yeah, she hangs around on Vimeo. Along with Kanye. Just saying.
