How could I have missed this. Two works by Bloomington animator (well, nee' Bton, to be absolutely clear) Tim Hittle are availableat shockwave.com.

Tim's animation has a deep resonance for me, as when I was a very young man (or even a child), I would see his animation on Channel 3. Some friends ended up doing some of their own stop-animation influenced by Hittle, if I recall correctly - part of an interesting childhood of Victrolas, dinosaurs, Firesign Theater, animation and art that I was privileged to be near to for a long time.

And the sound on these pieces, it should be noted, is Bloomington-centric also. A veritable hit parade of local talent.
