Animation

The Mind's Eye is a compilation of experimental computer animations from when such technology was in its early infancy. The animations are from various studios, having been arranged in a sort of "2001" evolution-timeline theme, and set to synthesized music. These pioneering CGI projects later gave rise to films such as Toy Story, A Bug's Life, Antz, and Shrek.

    Just an aside - I love that he's using The Mind's Eye (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0167285/), which is a video that really captured my imagination when I was young (along with Beyond the Mind's Eye) and changed the course of my life as it got me into 3D animation at a young age.
