Watching a colgrave animation reminds me of being a kid when my dad took me to work the first time. All of a sudden I was in this new world. I saw things that I recognized, a stapler or a printer, but in this new context they were foreign, used in ways I didn't recognize. It's not that the office was chaotic, rather it had rules that were completely alien to me. I felt so small and out of place thrust into this strange machine. In a way, it was a lot like watching a lemur use the voice of a frog to make music.

It reminds me of childhood as well: because I learned to read early and spent good portion of my childhood reading myths and other folklore (the ethnographic type).

I feel like there's some message here about taking advantage of/exploiting/stealing someone's creative spark/works. leaving them behind an empty husk while the exploiter that does not understand the creative struggle/process bastardizes it into what they think will get them renown/recognition. And then everyone else is just cool with it because they're getting their entertainment until it happens to them/one of theirs. While the karma is that those with a creative spark never really lose it, they just re-imagine it through their suffering. Or it's just about a guy who likes poking frogs because he's a big weirdy, who knows

Not likely, if you take a look at 7:07 the sky is filled with falling voices. This could imply that the possum-like creature threw it all away or that the cat and the rest of the animal crew made the possum get rid of the voices.
