I don’t get it.
That was beautiful.
A little sativa silicone II, a lick of hypnotoad, and it all makes operatic sense and sound. So I hear.
i win the superficial award! “distant future”?? photographic film? VCR cassette? CRT (thick) TVs? death by dagger or arrow? bosh-flimshaw!
otherwise twas super artsy supreme. (multiple deaths regarded with bland awareness etc)
I’m getting slight deja-vu. The video is three years old, but I don’t see a pre-Boing. Possibly someone posted it, or maybe a work-in-progress preview at some point?
Bizarro. I may have to watch it again. Twas brilliant.
Was the rabbit intentionally leaving an unexposed roll of film at 1:08 or did the animator not know that the leader isn’t supposed to stick out when you rewind the film?
Looks like a Henry Darger rip-off.
In the distant future, exposed photographic film will have the leader sticking out.
I’d leave the leader out sometimes. Like when switching from BW to colour slide (or vice versa), saving a half-full film for later. Or when the container of that particulate type/brand was a PITA to open in the darkroom.
You’d have to make sure not to mix them up, of course.
Accidental double exposures can result in spectacular pictures, though.
