Have I really degenerated to a YouTube parroting blog? Looks that way I guess. Still, here's a nifty short-film by Muppet master Jim Henson. It's got a goofy surrealistic thing going on, but the tying together of the percussion-based soundtrack with the visuals makes the movie itself very rhythmic and musical. It's pretty cool. It also makes clear what drove Sesame Street (and the muppets) to be so awesome, and what happened when he left, then died, and people with lesser vision took over.
It's about 9 minutes, but 9 minutes well spent. Enjoy!
