This got created in 1988 when I got out of Navy boot camp, and was going to Sea Bea Builder "A" school at Port Huneeme, Oxnard, CA.
I concentrated on my construction more and never got back to my film and animation projects. I took the camera back to the exchange. the only way to "Rent" a VHS camcorder back in the day. I made a timer deal where you hit a button and it flashes the pause button for a moment and flashes it again to capture a few frames for the annimation... But the cam corder backs up the tape a tad and the timer basically taped over that same spot of tape
hours of molding clay and taking a few frames were gone when I went back to see what got captured... the part where the rabbit moved quickly for under a second.. at 1:14 into the minute and half video above... At least I saved it. Im sure I could have written a better script.

In 1990
I configured my car via a long range cordless phone to remote start, control head lights, wipers, wiper wash, radio, horn. I take people to the store and say i'm going to run and get something... start the car change stations on the radio,...   I would have to clean up the mess they left in the seat....
Now your key chain or smart phone does all this.
In 1983 my friends & I
dug a Hogans Hero Style underground fort with 120 volt lights,  and music from the house stereo reciever; via a RG6 coax wire harness ran 500 feet back in the woods behind my dads house in Bremerton, Washington State. 
Carnival T
Looking forward to something like Christmas, Summer or a trip is a pattern we are very familiar with. Even our jobs have it where you work so many accumulated hours, and get a paid vacation day off ... Working retail part time, I fell into a pattern of 40 hour work weeks in the summer and 32 to 24 hour work weeks in the winter. This pattern makes it hard to ever get ahead. Its like having one foot nailed to the floor, nomatter how much energy you exert you eventually end up in the same spot. Creativity sets in and you start cutting back on your tax deductions out of your pay check, to the point where you owe a sizeable amount back to the IRS.
Carnival T got created by looking at a cronic pattern I have formed with a solution that is fun, and a vertual non event oposit of something like Christmas or going on a Vacation.
I created this sheild depicting the design principals to give it sort of a heart beat of its own.
1. I named it Carnival T (Carnival Tax)
2. Data Captured How much I made income Expenses recipts
3. Taxes Calculated how much do I owe to the different departments state federal SSC etc.
4. $ available the check will clear with room to spare!
5. Tax payment on time this is that magic non event!
Writing a check or now electronic payment. It can be interperted as putting money in a medophoric "Moses Basket" and sending it down stream hoping who gets it does better things with it than I can.
6. The great Bald Eagle represents Government our saroget father Uncle Sam ~ The amphomorphic deyity.
