Begone Dull Care

No single frame of this 1949 animation from Norman McLaren - Begone Dull Care - can properly capture the feeling it generates. Immediately following the credit sequence is an unrelenting onslaught of beautiful abstract paintings mixed with the random familiar elements (birds, arteries, plant life, etc). It's important to remember this is from 1949 and McLaren was breaking new ground with animation, particularly animation sync'ed with sound.

Do yourself a favor and enjoy the above and then deep dive into more goodness from the creator.
