So, 'Oblique' from 1980 is this really interesting piece of experimental animation. The director remains a mystery, which adds a bit of intrigue, right? It’s all done with mosaic tiles, which gives it this unique texture and visual style that's quite different from typical animations. The pacing feels deliberate, almost meditative, which lets you soak in each frame. Themes of fragmentation and abstraction are evident, making it a bit of a cerebral watch. It’s not your run-of-the-mill cartoon; it’s more like a visual poem. There’s something inherently tactile about the way it uses practical effects that you don't often see in animations—definitely a distinctive approach for its time.
