I don’t know if this one actually counts; Atomic Ranch is a book my wife ordered (not that my wife doesn’t count). But I’ve started to (at least try to) document all the books that come into the house, so, yeah, here’s Atomic Ranch, which is about 1950s ranch homes, which I guess my wife bought because we bought such a home earlier this year.
From the latest Electric Literature—
For our new Single Sentence Animation, J. Robert Lennon has chosen a sentence from his story “Hibachi” that depicts a turning point in Phillip and Evangeline’s marriage: the night she reveals she is one furious Hibachi master.
The sentence: “And then, with a motion so swift and subtle it was hard to be certain that it had happened, she pulled a wooden match from a pocket, scraped it against the exhaust hood, and set the onion alight. ”
Single Sentence Animations are creative collaborations. The writer selects a favorite sentence from his or her work and the animator creates a short film in response.
Animation and sound by Benk.
