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,
I 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
I 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!
