Lucid dreams

The two most important people in animation are Winsor McCay and Walt Disney, and I’m not sure which should go first.

There’s quite a bit of McCay available online.

Little Nemo

Dream of the Rarebit Fiend

I’d be curious to see Victor Herbert’s Little Nemo operetta someday. You can hear a bit of the music here.

One thought on “Lucid dreams”

  1. “Once he went to the Carnival of Nations… dancing with the princess through the night… found themselves on a moving platform, ten ton weights above them…
    seeking audience with King Morpheus. Scenes from a night’s dream, poor little Nemo!”

    I should’ve known that lyric was inspired directly by the source material. Heh.
