‘Begone Dull Care 2015’ by Paul Johnson
“A re-imagining of the original 1949 NFB short by Norman McLaren, Evelyn Lambart, and the Oscar Peterson Trio. In 2015, armed with 4 abstract paintings, 4 audio wave forms, 3 types of noise, Macromedia Flash 8, Graphics Gale, Milky Tracker, and some basic math, Paul Johnson created the art and music for Begone Dull Care 2015, an abstract pixel-art chiptune extravaganza of visually dizzying calisthenics dancing in time to an ’80s videogame soundscape.”
