This wonderful little animation is rumored to have been produced in response to legal threats following the exhibition of an earlier and simpler version. Pixar's state-of-the-art digital animation short Red's Dream inspired Leo Schwab to create a quirky homage in which the little red unicycle juggles checkered Amiga 'Boing' balls. Apparently Pixar was not amused, perhaps because the piece was created and rendered on an inexpensive, accessible personal computer, while Pixar has been on the cutting edge of high-end computer animation. Schwab's response was to create an inversion of the scenario, which actually seems an even better metaphor for the way the Amiga affected the industry. Visit Leo Schwab's pages for more background, as well as lots of other
pieces and programs he created for the Amiga. Also read his comments concerning
