Yesterday, on ReFrederator day, we ran a vintage Oskar Fischinger animation from a great DVD, Oskar Fischinger: Ten Films. I made a terrible mistake, believing we had the rights to play it when we didn’t. It certainly shouldn’t stop you from running out and checking all Oskar’s groundbreaking, innovative work. My partner and friend Alan Goodman introduced me to Fischinger in the 1970s, and I’ve never been able to shake it from my head, like thousands of other fans before and after. It’s worth seeing.

Ever since I was little I wanted Super Powers like Superman.
And now I think I must have some sort of super power, because the latest edition of Refrederator: Pop Up Superman Monday recently got featured on the Juxtapoz (Hipster Art and Culture Mag) website.
If you ask me, I feel like I’m flying now, and it’s not just all the caffeine in me.
Keep Kryptonite away from me!
