Chris Ohlson (born August 24, 1975) is an American film producer and director based in Austin, Texas. He is best known for his work on Kumiko, the Treasure Hunter, The Overbrook Brothers and Thank You a Lot.
Ohlson is the 2015 Independent Spirit Piaget Producers Award winner, a 2013 Creative Producing Fellow of The Sundance Institute, and an alum of IFP's Narrative Lab Program.
Ohlson’s first film as a producer, John Bryant’s The Overbrook Brothers, screened in competition at SXSW in 2009. The film went on to play at numerous festivals around the world before being distributed by IFC Films.Ain't It Cool News called The Overbrook Brothers, "Delightful…a smart and funny film.”
Following the success of The Overbrook Brothers, Ohlson Executive Produced The Happy Poet, which screened at more than 50 domestic and international festivals, (including the 67th Venice Film Festival) and earned critical praise from Entertainment Weekly, The New York Times, and other publications. The Village Voice called it “A sweet, stealthy film about creating meaning in your life (and your work) in a relentlessly mercenary world. Off-handed and yet quite artfully observed, The Happy Poet's winsome deadpan offsets its skewering of class and sustainability issues, right through to a tricky ending that, like Bill himself, may not be what it seems.” The Happy Poet won numerous prizes around the world, including the Audience Award at the Oldenburg International Film Festival, an American Independents Award at The Philadelphia International Film Festival and the Grand Jury Prize for Best Narrative Feature at the Florida Film Festival.
A virtual world or massively multiplayer online world (MMOW) is a computer-based simulated environment populated by many users who can create a personal avatar, and simultaneously and independently explore the virtual world, participate in its activities and communicate with others. These avatars can be textual, two or three-dimensional graphical representations, or live video avatars with auditory and touch sensations. In general, virtual worlds allow for multiple users.
The user accesses a computer-simulated world which presents perceptual stimuli to the user, who in turn can manipulate elements of the modeled world and thus experience a degree of presence. Such modeled worlds and their rules may draw from the reality or fantasy worlds. Example rules are gravity, topography, locomotion, real-time actions, and communication. Communication between users can range from text, graphical icons, visual gesture, sound, and rarely, forms using touch, voice command, and balance senses.

Uite cum e: dragostea, inseamna durere
Cand numai unu' da si celalalt o cere
Sunt suparat pe tine,tu te superi ca te-nvinui
Nu pot nici cu tine,nici fara tine
Da' cu tine mai mult ma chinui
Uneori ma port bine,
Uneori sunt stupid,
Uneori am tupeu,
Uneori sunt timid,
Uneori sunt indiferent,
Uneori sunt gelos,
Uneori caterinca,
Acum vorbesc serios
Sunt gelos pe toti,pe toti cu care ai ars-o
I-ai iubit,da' ei te-au lasat dupa ce ti-au tras-o
Tu vorbesti numai de ei de fata cu mine
Desi stii ca te iubesc cat toti la un loc, in fine
Nu sunt frumos, fetele spun ca arat bine
da yo arat ca dracu',mai,arat ca tine
O tai, ca nu imi pasa, tot ce poti sa faci e sa privesti
Ca la orgoliul tau nici nu ma astept sa ma opresti
E atat de simplu,da' lucrurile cele mai simple sunt cele mai grele.
Tu esti super-complicata, yo nu mai inteleg nimic (sa mor yo).
REF x2:
Spun ca nu-mi pasa, mie imi pasa sa stii
Spun ca plec azi, da' o sa ma-ntorc intr-o zi
Spun ca nu mi-e dor, sincer mi-e dor
Spun ca sunt ok ,cand de fapt nu-mi e usor
In octombrie de ziua ta, eu te previn,
Ai inima goala, atunci yo n-o sa mai vin
Prin noiembrie o sa ma vezi intamplator
Daca nu pe strada, poate la televizor
De Craciun o sa fiu cu prietenii la munte
Tu nu meriti sa vii, pa-pa te pup pe frunte
De Revelion sunt prin Tomis Nord, cine stie,
Unde n-o sa fii tu, cea mai mare distractie o sa fie
In ianuarie ma relaxez
Februarie ce vrei, stii ca yo urasc cel mai mult Valentin's Day
Prin martie stau pe blat, ca-i ziua femeii
Ele vor si dragoste dar imi vor si leii
Da'-n cutia postala iti pun o felicitare
"Cu drag, Criss", am scris plus ceva mai tare
Vezi tu acolo si sti ca yo ma pricep
Si tot ce spun e din inima dar altfel nu concep
Ref x2
Spun ca nu-mi pasa, mie imi pasa sa stii
Spun ca plec azi, da' o sa ma-ntorc intr-o zi
Spun ca nu mi-e dor, sincer mi-e dor
Spun ca sunt ok ,cand de fapt nu-mi e usor
Nu stiu daca stii, am sotie si familie..
Cred ca te-ai prins, suntem pe 1 aprilie
Pe 1 mai la Neptun, cu totii suntem acolo
Super caterinci prin Caraiman si Apollo.
In iunie e cald, cu baietii la scara blocului
Bem, fumam, sunt tovarasii de mama-focului
Prin iulie statiunile deja imi fac ochi dulci
Si sunt acolo,
Yo petrec cand tu te culci
August, au gust zilele
E luna pe care o prefer
Si soarele si luna imi zambesc cand ma uit la cer
In septembrie pleci la facultate la Bucuresti
Da' nici acolo unul ca mine n-o mai sa gasesti
In rest, am iesit cu fete
Si sa spun drept pe ele nu le vreau,
Yo pe tine te astept
Sunt langa tine, da tu nu ma poti vedea
Asta ma face un naufragiat in inima ta.
Ref :
