ASIFA-Hollywood Animation Archive 2:37 pm Tue Jan 12, 2010

What would you get if you combined Leonardo DaVinci, Rudolph Valentino, Bob Clampett and Ayn Rand all into one person? A mulligan stew to be sure, but a mighty tasty mulligan stew!

Eddie Fitzgerald is a philosopher, cartoonist, theoretician and bon vivant. In his blog, Uncle Eddie's Theory Corner he's discussed everything from the relationship between architecture and humanity to how to make the perfect hamburger to just exactly why guys love women so doggone much.

But he's most famous for his "Fum-Eddies"… mini cartoon epics that he designs and performs for the iSight camera in his Mac. Eddie has travelled the world, gone on adventures to outer space, and navigated through the labyrinth of the human psyche- all from the comfort of his den. He's just reposted his magnum opus of Fum-Eddie, "Captain Hook and the Dog Pie" in four parts.
