Created as a scented flipbook.

For the debut screening of this one, the exhibition space was perfumed and citrus sweets were given to the visitors. It’s a pity we can’t experience the olfactory elements of these creations, but maybe you are able to get some synesthetic kicks from the animation!
Anna and Bella is an 1 984Oscar award winning short film by Danish director Borge Ring. It follows the lives of two sisters from childhood to reincarnation (don’t miss the last seconds). Beautiful and moving.

Trailer for the 1981 Ralph Bakshi ground breaking animated film American Pop.
The State Of The Art In Living Animation.
“American Pop” is the animated story of a very talented and troubled family starting with 19th century Russia and moving through several generations of musicians.
The film covers American music from the pre-jazz age through soul, ’50s rock, drug-laden psychadelia, and punk, finally ending with the onset of new wave in the early 1980s.
All those years, all those dreams, all those sons… one of them is going to be a star.
The mother and father of the world are wondering at the follies of their human children. An anti-materialistic, anti-nationalistic film created by Faith and John Hubley, sponsored by “The Institute for World Order” with an original and beautiful soundtrack by the one and only Dizzy Gillespie.

Another awesome animation from Professor Soap, who we’ve seen previously here.
The film is an allegorical comment on the moral neutrality of technology and the potentially destructive powers of propaganda. Blackwolf’s secret weapon is propaganda, used to incite and motivate his legions and terrorize the good fairy folk of Montagar; Blackwolf also utilizes technology for evil ends. However, in the end, it is Avatar’s willingness to use a technological tool (a handgun pulled from “up his sleeve”) which saves them all. Bakshi also states that Wizards “was about the creation of the state of Israel and the Holocaust, about the Jews looking for a homeland, and about the fact that fascism was on the rise again”.
Another epic rap by Terence McKenna, accompanied with fantastic, evocative visuals.
Ivan Maximov leads us from left to right in a glorious parade of entities.
This is the first film in a trilogy by Hungarian Sándor Reisenbüchler. It is based on a poem by Ferenc Juhász
At 04:28 you can see some characters resembling Wondjinas, so it is possible that Reisenbüchler was familiar with the work of the “ancient aliens” -freak Erich von Däniken.
Below are included the 2nd and 3rd part of the trilogy for reference. They make use of photomontage and collage techniques.
