There's also a

Jetée

All the while as I begun to view the second video, I came upon the quick passing thought that this sounded very much like the People's Champion (re: B. Obama). Turns out I wasn't that far off - as it states in the author's commentary: All words were taken from Barack Obama's autobiography "Dreams From My Father", and are used under the Fair Use clause of the US Copyright Act.

I liked both of the shares, (the first, I lapsed into the words thru the visualisations more readily, while the second, I dug the soundtrack and inadvertent Obama impersonation quite a bit) and I thank thee, purplelirpa, for exhibiting them.

A question for you, though: how did you happen upon these animated shorts? By random chance? I ask because, combined, both videos have no more than 50 total pageviews, so these are really quite special and beneath-the-radar (and recent, I now notice, as both videos were uploaded to YouTube on the 25th).
