Adult Swim IDs for 2018

Here’s a couple of clips I made for Adult Swim in 2018.

Indigestion

A journey into the mouth of madness. This video congealed from various animated experiments.

Enter at your own risk…

Frames to Beats calculator

This is a frames to beats-per-minute calculator. You can use this tool to calculate how many frames of animation will pass with each beat of your music. Simply fill in two of the fields and press solve to calculate the third value.

I find this tool useful for making animated music videos, so I thought I would share it.

Horse Destroys the Universe

I have written a book. It’s about a horse who destroys the universe. You may well be wondering why, and why. Let me see if I can explain…

Back in 2015 I decided to have a go at the NaNoWriMo challenge, to write a novel in a month. I didn’t expect anyone would ever read it, I just enjoy writing and telling stories, so I deliberately chose the most outlandish subject I could think of, which happened to be a horse destroying the universe. The task was to somehow construct a semi-believable sequence of events that would end up with such a scenario.

The story is told from the perspective of Buttercup the horse, who is the unwitting participant in an experiment being conducted by a dysfunctional pair of human scientists. As the weeks of writing progressed and the chaos of the story escalated, I began to realise that there was a lot more going on here than a horse destroying the universe. The fact is, you need so many things to go wrong in order to obtain such a result that the journey of this horse and it’s two hapless human accomplices became far more interesting than the destination.

So, with this rough sketch of a novel complete after a month, I decided to spend some time hammering it into the shape of a proper book. And two and a half years later here I am, crowd-funding to get it published. Will it reach the funding goal? We shall see…
