The paperwork explosion

In 1967 IBM's office products division commissioned Jim Henson and composer Raymond Scott to create "The Paperwork Explosion," a four-minute advertisement for the MT/ST word-processing machine. It’s frankly NUTS. With jarring dystopian settings, unsettling cast of serious corporate heads, strange music and a bonkers old coot for context. This is how technology should be sold. A four minute mini movie with contemporary orchestral score for a word processor? Brilliant!
