Really weird poodle exercise video for humans. This is a mesmerizing and frightening video that's a word-for-word parody of Susan Powter's first workout video, featuring poodles and a crazy poodle-woman. Absolutely surreal. It was made by Nagi Noda for Panasonic. It was part of 10 films made for the 2004 Athens Olympics. [3:29]

grrlscientist | July 9, 2007I always find it interesting that people try to hide their likenesses from their blog and then spend the rest of their blog careers trying to recreate an icon or avatar that looks just like them.
