It’s been a while since I’ve posted a Psycho Unity comic, but I’m super hyped to say my Uncle Frank is working with a publisher in Chicago to get these online. Click the link for Psycho Unity’s First Notebook of Head Injury. Also, go to their main site here to see more great Pyscho Unity strips and other great Frank Zirbel art. Good work Frank!
“In 2007 and 2008, as a commission from one of my art collectors, I deconstructed/reconstructed Pieter Bruegel’s 1557 engravings of “The Seven Deadly Sins/Vices.” as seven ink drawings. In 2008, a German cinematographer and friend, Mike Steffl, who had a poster collection of my drawings, sent me a sample DVD of proposed films of the drawings as a Christmas gift. He suggested that with his help we make them into short films. Nothing was started until January of 2013. By the end of the year we had seven films. The soundtrack was created in 2014. In April of 2015 post production work began and still continues.
Finally, two of the films are completed and have been uploaded to YouTube. Each film is a little over six minutes in length. The links are below. I’ve also attached scans of posters of the first two drawings for easy reference.
Eventually all seven films will be released on Blu-ray or streamed.
To more fully understand what’s going on please read the description/blurb that accompanies the films on YouTube.” – Frank Zirbel
My uncle Frank Zirbel sent me some more Psycho Unity frames to upload. So look for a new one every week or so for quite some time! Hyped! Also, check out some of his movies on his youtube channel FrankJosephZirbel here.
My uncle Frank Zirbel started Mental Insect several years ago and now Amazon has all of the cds for sale. All three are here. If you’re wanting the live one (which I highly recommend!) it’s also on Create Space here. Either way it’s a win/win. You’ll have good music and you’re supporting a good man. Get on it now!
