A super 8mm film by Davorin Marc.

"Wanted to drop you a quick note to congratulate you on THE FUR OF THIS ANIMAL. Saw it recently ... and was very impressed and interested - made me want to see it a few more times. ... But your film, even though I see it operating through composition (pictorial plus time-based) did get me on the edge of my seat - the image quality throughout was really rather extraordinary. In addition, the film just seemed somehow more serious, which is I guess a matter of a kind of depth and subtlety. So anyhow, you kind of won me over to where my prejudices just melted away." - Fred Worden

This sizzle of groundbreaking commercials and forward-thinking branding comes from the firm of Robert Abel & Associates. Even though they were made in 35mm, you wouldn't have seen these spots at the movies—you'd have to see them at home on a small CRT television with limited resolution. This presentation allows us to take in their artistry at cinematic scale. Abel had worked with graphic designer Saul Bass and, like Larry Cuba, computer filmmaker John Whitney. Specializing in stop-motion photography and the development of innovative special effects, which included extensive use of 360-degree motion-controlled boom arms, optical printing, frontal and rear projection, and various early computer graphic systems, Abel brought an artist's eye and a hipster's sensibility to iconic campaigns for 7-Up, Kawasaki, Levi's, Chevrolet, and countless other companies, such as the VFX sequences for Star Trek: The Motion Picture (1979), Tron (1982), and the Jacksons' music video for "Can You Feel It."

Poor James Harrison! Everyone is upset with him - his parents, the next-door neighbor, even the town sheriff - but he didn't do anything wrong! The real culprit is Thomas Kempe, a sorcerer from a prior century who's been unwittingly released from an antique bottle. Young James, after moving into a charming Victorian home with his family, finds that he has an invisible roommate - the ghost of Thomas Kempe. The ghost needs an apprentice, but when James refuses to cooperate, accidents and mysterious events plague the neighborhood. Coincidentally, all the clues point to James as the guilty party! Fortunately, a friend volunteers to help the boy lure the mischief-loving spirit back to his resting place. But even if the two succeed, will anyone believe the explanation?

"SENSATIONAL" - part of the Oxford Dictionary's explanation for the word suggests 'a stirring of the emotions of many people'.

Abstract video art created in 1979. Video and audio by Dean Winkler, Glenn Van Alstyne, Tom Lucke, Elaine Lewis, and Brian Aitchison. Chirp-1 / Quantel was created in two separate effects passes: At the RPI Video Synthesizer Lab an old porno tape (on stock that was donated to us) was processed using an analog Serge modular music synthesizer to sequence the sounds and control the colorization of an analog Hern video synthesizer. The sounds are also inserted into the video, which are the stripes you see, changing with frequency. The tape from the first pass was taken to EUE Video and used to seed an analog feedback loop around a Quantel 5000 digital effects device.
