Rodney Tells The Story Of Wonder Window:
The kids were bored one Sunday night so I started animating this little
fly who was roaming around a guy's head. The guy's face looked irritated,
and when the fly got to the right spot, the guy ate the fly. I called my
creation Fly Guy, and was so pleased with myself that I began to make more
animations. I happened to be having a show of my wooden sculptures in an
art gallery one day so I decided to put my Macintosh movies into the show.
Everybody liked them!
Well, to make a long story short, all those Macintosh art pieces
became Wonder Window. Lots of people ask me if Rodney's Wonder
Window is for kids. Heck no! It's for people who like to crawl under
the dining room table and play fort, or who like to make jokes while other
people are drinking milk so that it comes out of their noses, or who can
do a good impression of Yogi Bear. It's for everybody in the world who
has ever dreamed of having an imaginary giant invisible bunny for a friend.
So belt on your Rotato Heat, probe your pet, and watch out for male Tooli
Bugs, 'cause Wonder Window is a way of life!
