The block garden of Eden

I have always been fascinated with stop motion animation. Although i do not think i am cut out for this type of film making the amount of time and detail that has to go into just a single second of film is mind blowing. So props to you prof. Leeper. The films we watched in class today, the sand castle one and the block playground were great art. The film can meet you on a pure entertainment and visually pleasing level while at the same time sending strong spiritual connection. This combination of virtues within this art is so powerful. The way i see it is the childlike atmosphere of these films make you relax when you watch them and your not really looking to analyze and pick apart all the little details of it to see what it means. This mental relaxation allows the messages and story of the art to seep into your brain and make connections with out the usual way through analysis. At least thats the way i see it, i hope my thinking makes some grain of sense.
