Wow. This vid is just about exactly what I would have imagined for a cross pollenation between Disney and Dali. Mind = blown.

Always been annoyed that they did such a half-baked job of this with the crossfaded low frame rate parts instead of bothering to fully animate it tho

Now, for fun, watch the Pink Floyd version of Destino :

Which demonstrates that music in the original version is a bit old-fashioned, even compared to Pink Floyd

A few years ago, The Walt Disney Family Museum did an exhibition: Disney and Dalí: Architects of the Imagination. It was one of the best exhibitions they’ve done and focused on this collaboration.

Sadly this exhibition is closed, but I highly recommend going to the museum when in San Francisco. It’s run by the Disney family with an agreement and understanding with the company.
