man as industrial palace
Fritz Kahn illustrated man as a factory in his well-known 1926 poster, "Man as Industrial Palace", which shows minuscule people operating each body system. Now, designer Henning Lederer has created this impressive animated version, showing the factory at work.

bad apple - stop motion
I'm not a fan of dance music but I am a fan of stop motion. This video was made from 6,566 printed images and plays very cleverly with notions of space.

mameshiba
Imagine the scene: just as you're about to eat, a bean with the face of a puppy appears in your food and dispenses an unusual fact. This is the world of Mameshiba - there are many more of these videos on their Youtube channel. I have watched them all. Via Drawn!
animata
I'm intrigued by Animata, an open source real-time animation program. According to the website:"The peculiarity of the software is that the animation - the movement of the puppets, the changes of the background - is generated in real-time, making continuous interaction possible. This ability also permits that physical sensors, cameras or other environmental variables can be attached to the animation of characters, creating a cartoon reacting to its environment. For example, it is quite simple to create a virtual puppet band reacting to live audio input, or set up a scene of drawn characters controlled by the movement of dancers."
oliver jeffers 'lost and found' - animated
I just saw over at Cartoon Brew that Oliver Jeffers' childrens book 'Lost and Found' has been animated by Studio AKA - to be shown on Christmas Eve on Channel 4. Yay! As if I needed another reason to get excited about Christmas!
purple and brown
I love Purple and Brown! I often watch too much and start laughing like them. Works of comedy genius by Aardman....search them on Youtube and spend your afternoon giggling.
vinni puh
Vinni Puh was the Soviet version of Winnie the Pooh and I think it is far superior - less cute and much funnier. I found this one with English subtitles, so you can fully appreciate the humour.
beautiful backgrounds
I have always been a huge fan of animation, particularly (and perhaps slightly curiously) backgrounds. All the better if they have a hint of 1950s modernism about them!
There are some great ones from Cartoon Network's Robotboy over at VISUAL PHOOEY! - the blog of Chris Garbutt, who art directed the first series.
