Worth watching: Pes' 'Western Spaghetti' animation

03:52 PM PT, Jul 10 2008

If you're not familiar with Pes, best check out the video below. This is some of the best stop-motion animation going right now. Adam Pesapane's signature aesthetic is to replicate the real world with kitschy household and kitchen items. Below is a bravura rendition of cooking spaghetti.  On other end of the spectrum, this video depicts the destruction of a city (the atom bomb is a marshmallow peanut, and the explosion is one of Christmas tree ornaments).  This third video reprises classic video games.  Warning: The videos are loud, so keep your thumb on the volume.
