Rarely do I understand Felix Colgrave, but always do I appreciate him.
If he were a musician playing some impromptu riff, a guitarist heading off on a solo or a drummer swinging the sticks around in a maze of sound, I would sit back and - in perfect silence - listen.
Sometimes that’s how I feel about Mr. Colgrave and his art. I have no idea how he does it, so I just sit. Because it too is awesome.

I've posted some of Felix Colgrave's works before and probably will again. He's pretty fricken cool.
However, I'm posting this more for my AP students who spent an entire class trying to dissect and interpret, but who, like myself, struggled to truly make sense of it.
This guys interpretation my not be perfect, but it still helps quite a bit.

I'm not sure which came first, the elephant or it's egg, but the video to this not-to-bad song is, like most of Felix Colgrave's work, confusing and entertaining and always unsatisfying - begging for more and more and more. And there is plenty more.
(listening to this while trying to get work done . . . brilliant!).
"A creature is just an animal that’s wrong. Be wrong lots, and when you’re wrong in a way you like, try getting that wrong and repeat forever." - Colgrave
This guys imagination is a playground worth wasting time on.

A film about love and regicide. Made by Felix Colgrave over the course of 2 years.
Felix describes himself this way: "I am a disembodied head. I animate using a pen shoved in my neckhole. One day, science will be able to graft my head on to a tree, and I'll give up animation to focus on growing walnuts off of my body."
His videos, which are many, are just as entertaining, and confusing.
PLEASE (scroll to bottom) AND DO SO AGAIN!
There was an (ahem) operations error and it didn't go through (sorry about that).
