Animation, Art, and Other Shiny Things
If a squirrel farts in the forest, does Smokey the Bear hear it?
(the new squirrelapalooza theme sound?)
The quest to build the better bird-feeder, that is, one that can’t be cleaned out by the squirrels, continues to escalate. Unfortunately for them, a squirrel’s persistence and resourcefulness are hard to defeat.
(you’re enjoying squirrelapalooza, aren’t you. i can tell…)
In the park, to survive you must protect your nuts.
Squirellapalooza rolls on… All you really need to get down and be funky is a squirrel.
From the Disney cartoon series Phineas and Ferb.
Welcome, folks, to the first (and perhaps only) Squirrelapalooza here at The Ruffled Crow! A weekend full imbued with a surfeit of animation featuring the bane of bird feeders everywhere; the squirrel. Why squirrels? Well that’s a long story…
(ok, maybe it won’t be chock full, possibly not even crammed or jam-packed, and i would certainly not use the term glutted. i might consider teeming, perhaps, but i think i really feel more comfortable with imbued with a surfeit although i now have to go back and edit it. sigh…)
Your Occasional Friday Rogue Video is from a long-time favorite band of mine, Nine Inch Nails.
Way back when, in the days when MTV still showed music videos, it also showed a lot of stuff from new and non-mainstream animators as filler and sometimes programming. Liquid TV was a favorite of mine; a half hour of unusual shorts, many animated. I probably still have some episodes laying around after all these years. Aeon Flux premiered on Liquid TV.
This is a compilation of various MTV animations which includes the short Joe’s Apartment, which spawned a full-length movie.
