Erodium Thunk is a 2018 Canadian collage animated short by Winston Hacking, who is known for making music videos for such artists as Flying Lotus, Washed Out and Animal Collective.
Synopsis
Named after the 1956 Michael Snow film A to Z, a barrage of hyperlinked TV commercials and magazine ads (with doses of nostalgia and satire) that's also a comedic social commentary on late consumer capitalism.
Accolades
At the 2019 Ottawa International Animation Festival, the film won two awards - one in the Best Technique category for "its intelligent arrangement of source material and fascinating transitions" and the latter in the Non-Narrative Animation category stating that:
"with its compelling balance of control and chance, this ever-morphing collage just kept surprising us".
