    Music Video with the puppet at a desk with the 60s futurist decor.

    He just plays around with weird samples, that are really mostly
    noizes, and record them all to a DAT deck. He started because he
    needed soundtracks to his films. The 'Flat Eric' song is a hidden
    track on his new album. He also has a couple of EP from earlier.
