Best of BBtv - Bill Barminski (animation and short films)
The Boing Boing tv crew continues their hard-earned snooze in the sands of a swingers' resort on the south shore of Mars today, but we're revisiting the best of the show while we slack off in outer space. (Robot! Bring me another red Rover martini.)
Today, we feature the work of animator, filmmaker, and music video director Bill Barminski, a longtime Boing Boing fave.
Above, "Drive In," a soothing ambient work I like to watch before bedtime.
Another beloved Barminksi joint is below, S.E.X.Y. R.O.B.O.T.: Pinker Tones music video by Walter Robot.
Here's a link to all of the BBtv episodes which have featured Barminski's work.
My favorite appears in the second half of this BBtv episode: the "Fuji Apple" animated short from Barminski's production team Walter Robot, with music by Boards of Canada (song: Roygbiv, from "Music has the Right to Children.") I could just watch that over and over again, and I often do.

Next, we feature some floating, mobile, hobo homes, in Walterrobot's short film Moon Avenue Box Man.
Falco Stairs/Fuji Apple
Now that we've properly memorialized Falco with his own product code, it's time for the ultimate monument to his iconic talent. Via monochrom, BBtv takes you to the Falco... stairs? Sean Bonner makes a cameo to weigh in on the Falco... lamppost. Then, we proudly premiere the Falco Memorial Haz Mat Dancers. Er, actually it's a retro-style short video by Walterrobot entitled "Fuji Apples." Music in the Walter Robot short from Boards of Canada (song: Roygbiv, from "Music has the Right to Children.")
