pity this busy monster, manunkind,
not. Progress is a comfortable disease:
your victim (death and life safely beyond)
plays with the bigness of his littleness
--- electrons deify one razorblade
into a mountainrange; lenses extend
unwish through curving wherewhen till unwish
returns on its unself.
A world of made
is not a world of born --- pity poor flesh
and trees, poor stars and stones, but never this
fine specimen of hypermagical
ultraomnipotence. We doctors know
a hopeless case if --- listen: there's a hell
of a good universe next door; let's go

Here’s the final animation for Andrew Lloyd Webber and that incorrigible little orphan Fourvel from the “Time Bobby” episode of Comedy Bang Bang! It is so funny and great and still my favorite! To see this animation bigger, click here!
ALSO, the legend of musical theatre is appearing on CBB TV tonight! I hope he enjoys his animation AND his night on television.
I ended up running out of time for color if I wanted something ready to post tonight, so I decided to experiment with making it look kind of old-timey instead. I’m still open to coloring it traditionally, though!

This stuff reminds me of the Replacements and Fugazi and so many other things, totally brilliant.
When the banality of office life has you dozing off at your computer, what do you dream of? If you’re anything like us, the images dancing through your head probably resemble @kaylaporter’s Instagram photos. Is there an existence any dreamier than building wooden boats on an island in Washington?

As part of the MaxFunDrive, Jordan and I made a new “riffed” short film, on the subject of posture. It’s only available to MaxFun donors, and it’s fucking hilarious.
To whet your appetite, I’ve decided to share this OTHER riffed short that Jordan and I made, “Social Courtesy.” It is ALSO fucking hilarious.
