Following an early morning status check of their vintage electronic equipment, two computer engineers "throw down" in an awkward dance-off that inaccurately echoes the development of information technology and the internet from 1951 up to the present day. The film features a catchy jingle by pop impresario Jim Guthrie.
Production notes: This film was produced by Superbrothers in 2006 before the establishment of Superbrothers Inc., but it was not until after incorporation that the film was eventually released. Critical reception of the film was positive, although most felt that the aim of the film was less lofty than its acclaimed predecessor The Children of the Clone (posted underneath), and that its creators had gone soft, already drifting from their revolutionary roots. Regardless the video is pretty cool and should be checked out by anyone who is a fan of 8-bit art.
Also, Check out the first pixel film by the Superbrothers - Children of the Clone, An award-winning portrait of corporate culture run amok in which a single executive recruits an army of clones to attack, behead and 'incorporate' an old money industrialist into their consumptive system. The film features an aggressive, stellar musical composition by Jim Guthrie.
