    "If you repeat the word 'fly' for long enough it sounds like you're saying 'life'. This is of no help to Peter. His answers lie in the brain of a beetle."


    "The Eagleman Stag is the 2011 BAFTA award winning Royal College of Art thesis film of director / writer MIKEY PLEASE. It's mostly made out of some strange white stuff, found in the back of a stress cushion. Mikey worked with his brother BENEDICT PLEASE who composed the soundtrack and score, as well as the vocal talents of cult actor DAVID CANN who lends his voice here to Peter Eagleman."

    :...take a look at The Returning Tree. This is one of the more perplexing pieces I have come across this year but certainly one of the more visually stimulating and an incitement to contemplation if ever there was one. It was created by Yuri Serizawa as his graduation work at Digital Hollywood. I see it as a powerful extended visual metaphor for hope and the redemption of our species after our millennia long confrontation with nature. Perhaps and then again, maybe some higher power finally got fed up with us. Whatever you think, this is an animation that makes you think. And it’s pretty, too. What do you see ?"
