Bingo

I remember this video being nominated for weirdest web video award somewhere. While it's not the strangest thing in the world, it is certainly disconcerting. The animation looks dated, but the concept behind it is intersting. Based on a short play called something like, ignore this play, the protaganist becomes the antagonist by becoming the clown he fights against. I thought the whole piece was truly shocking.

    I think it was shocking too but rather unoriginal. The concept conveyed in this animation has been conveyed elsewhere with surrealists for years. I still like it, though.

    I agree with Jeff in that there was a great deal of surrealism conveyed in the piece however, it made me really uncomfortable, and made me feel alienated and completely displaced from the character. Which could be good or bad I guess depending on the intentions of the creator...
