Hyper 1980's Motion Graphics

This collection is so bad it's good, enjoy...

VIDEODROME (1983) Trailer with hyper '80s graphics for the David Cronenberg classic

JVC - Time Rider - Computer Dreaming (1981)
Unbelievably painfully cheesy video effects demo from JVC circa 1981. They suffered for their art - now it's your turn. 

Quest (1985)
Computer animated short from 1985 featured gratuitous amounts of ray tracing, rendered on a network of 108 Apollo Workstations.

Star Rider (1983)
Background visuals from the hybrid laserdisc/CG arcade game "Star Rider." (watch from 46 seconds onwards...)

Bio-Sensor (1984) / Sio-Benbor (1988)
(This is very odd!) Two shorts for the price of one! Bio-Sensor (1984) is a surreal Japanese film notable for its early use of primitive motion capture, using profile and head-on films of a tiger walking (a la Muybridge). Sio-Benbor (1988) is a French parody notable for having a really cute kitty cat.

Brilliance (1985)
...And now for the obligitary sexy female robot

Pixillation Art Film 1971 | AT&T Archives

"An art film by artist Lillian Schwartz and artist/scientist Ken Knowlton,who both worked at Bell Labs. Uses both conventional and early computer animation. There were 3 different versions of this film but we are not certain which version this is. Gershon Kingsley of the popular computer music group Perrey and Kingsley did the music with a Moog synthesizer. The music is a fantastic, giddy complement to the psychedelic machine images and weirdly hypnotic washes of color." via techchannel.att.com
