When I dream this I'm gonna add a little bit more color.

Outstanding. I only clicked away to google Kwoon. Funny that this video makes me shiver too.

Wow. This video must tap into some sort of primal shiver reflex? 'Cuz I definitely did too.

Took a while to get going (god there's too much animation out there) but eventually got to me. Thanks.

Stunning. Made me teary-eyed too.

Really good.... Shivers, yeah.

I got the same wistful feeling from The Shins "Pink Bullets". Freakin' tear-jerkers.

Dang - more shivers here. Something about the character designs (those eyes!) and the way the environment was so abstract and archetypical really plugged into whatever part of the brain responds to myths and dreams.. I thought. Beautiful, thanks for posting it.

That was lovely. The sequence with the tall walk-y thing moving to the spindly flying ma-boo was neat. I also like the collapsing ship of bad stuff sinking into the clouds.

And the smile the little one has at the end. It is neat the way the eyes alone can transmit a smile.

Here's Yannick Puig's webpage about "I lived on the Moon".

How do some minds work like that? I want my mind to work like that.

does anyone happen to read achewood as well? because the "tall walk-y thing" reminded me of that story arc where Ray and Bensington Butters take that helicopter to the strange warehouse place run by Edison's brother.
