I remember watching HBO in 1983. Inbetween movies like Superman, Mr. Mom, Vacation, Flashdance, War Games and Sudden Impact, they would play these short art films. One of the most amazing shorts that I saw was called, Dots. Created by French Canadian filmmaker Norman McLaren.

Thanks Russ. The HBO theme song has taken a few steps backward since then, eh? Lost some soul and swagger ......
