Literally decades. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I may have \u2018discovered\u2019 it before? I\u2019m pretty sure I learned about husband and wife animation team John and Faith Hubley many moons ago. And in doing so, published a post about them. But I can\u2019t find it!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What lead me to discover them was my occasional searching for a \u2018Creation Myth\u2019 type animation featuring the voice of (and possibly also music by) Dizzy Gillespie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"800\" height=\"1024\" src=\"http:\/\/www.sebpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/img_2064-1.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-25421\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.sebpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/img_2064-1.jpg 800w, http:\/\/www.sebpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/img_2064-1-234x300.jpg 234w, http:\/\/www.sebpalmer.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/12\/img_2064-1-768x983.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">John and Faith Hubley.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>I found that an obscure (to me, at any rate) artsy American publication had done a feature on them, which included a DVD featuring numerous animated (and other*) works of theirs. So I bought a copy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But my quest for a decent quality full length version of the elusive Creation Myth style animation remained &#8211; I think? &#8211; unfulfilled. Or maybe I\u2019m remembering this all wrong!?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Anyway, whatever, as folks say these days. I finally found what I was looking for, and learned that it goes by the title <em>Voyage To Next<\/em>. Here it is, in an HD format that finally does it some justice.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>*I recall that the aforementioned DVD featured this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<span class=\"embed-youtube\" style=\"text-align:center; display: block;\"><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"youtube-player\" width=\"525\" height=\"296\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/aMTHRpCtOkE?version=3&#038;rel=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;showinfo=1&#038;iv_load_policy=1&#038;fs=1&#038;hl=en-GB&#038;autohide=2&#038;wmode=transparent\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" style=\"border:0;\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts allow-same-origin allow-popups allow-presentation\"><\/iframe><\/span>\n<\/div><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Another Hubley\/Gillespie collaboration.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>All of this has lead me to another Hubley animated work, <em>Windy Day<\/em>, from 1968.
