amazing stop-motion animation
by the Quay brothers
identical twins that create these
rather interesting animation pieces
they are poetic, they are dark
they are non-sense but make all the sense
at the same time
dunkel, beautiful, like a deep strange dream
here the dark, sehr sehr dunkel
"Stille Nacht I: Dramolet"
[and to think it's just an old doll,
some magnets and powdered metal...]
and another little sample
if you come across their dark art
do not miss them!
and thanks to mister atom
for introducing me to the Quay brothers
i have a DVD with
The Brothers Quay Collection:
Ten Astonishing Short Films 1984-1993 (1984)
creatures to crawl into my
mexican-californian mind
and then not so sunny will be this Sunday
Hallo Bere,
ReplyDeleteI listened to both because your blog is splendidly interesting.
Degustibus non est disputandum, hope you excuse but I don't like.
But don't let this stop you to show other musical items from YouTube. It's really amazing, one finds everything there.

hola Georg
ReplyDeleteI am glad you didn't like them! and I am not being ironic nor sarcastic :) mostly I am glad you sincerely gave me your opinion!
and I think these pieces more than for hear were to watch, but still I understand the Quay Brother have a rather obscure taste, not for every palate and also these piece might have not aged that well...
again, glad you found them not great 'cause I find them a little "disturbing" myself, but a great sample of animation too!
Guten Tag dear Georg und danke!
