In 1965 he was making the most amazing animated shorts and was scratching the soundtrack directly onto the film. It sounds like BREAKBEATS. (The visual are pretty fucking amazing too.) National Film Board of Canada paid him a salary to make experimental animated films = dream job??!! Did crazy things with stop-motion animation and live actors and horizontal lines and "drawing jazz directly onto the film". Like Stan Brakhage but not miserable. CLASSIC!
