One-a-day: 'Baby Snakes' (1979) dir. Frank Zappa, animation by Bruce Bickford


Unfortunately I couldn't find the complete stop-motion animation on Youtube, so the second and the third part will have to do. I don't think you need to like Frank Zappa to enjoy this, in fact like Zappa's own music and most super weird stop-motion animation I don't believe you have to 'enjoy' it full stop. Just sit back and take it in. The following animation is part of a concert film Zappa produced called 'Baby Snakes', Bruce Bickford animated a number of peculiar sequences and I believe went on to win awards for this.

  1. Extraordinary! So this is the answer to the question: what do you get if you take the paintings of Francis Bacon and + David Cronenberg + Clive Barker + Svankmajer + The Chapman Brothers + Freud + William Burroughs + Timothy Leary + Morph?
