Watching this, I've never laughed and cried so hard in my life. This video is not yet on Youtube (That I can find).

The New York memorial was held at the Cathedral of St. John the Divine on May 21, 1990, just five days after Henson's death. (Less than two years later, the same cathedral would host the memorial for Richard Hunt.). + Informações

For more from the AT&T Archives, visit techchannel.att.com Jim Henson made this film in 1963 for The Bell System. Specifically, it was made for an elite seminar given for business owners, on the then-brand-new topic ? Data Communications. The seminar itself involved a lot of films and multimedia presentations, and took place in Chicago. A lengthy description of the planning of the Bell Data Communications Seminar ? sans a mention of the Henson involvement ? is on the blog of Inpro co-founder Jack Byrne. It later was renamed the Bell Business Communications Seminar. The organizers of the seminar, Inpro, actually set the tone for the film in a three-page memo from one of Inpro's principals, Ted Mills to Henson. Mills outlined the nascent, but growing relationship between man and machine: a relationship not without tension and resentment: "He [the robot] is sure that All Men Basically Want to Play Golf, and not run businesses ? if he can do it better." (Mills also later designed the ride for the Bell System at the 1964 World's Fair.) Henson's execution is not only true to Mills' vision, but he also puts his own unique, irreverent spin on the material. The robot narrator used in this film had previously starred in a skit for a food fair in Germany (video is silent), in 1961. It also may be the same robot that appeared on the Mike Douglas Show in 1966. Henson created a different ? but similar ? robot for the SKF Industries pavilion at the 1964 World's Fair. This film was found .... + Informações

For more from the AT&T Archives, visit techchannel.att.com This is the second (long lost!) film that Jim Henson made for the Bell Data Communications Seminar in 1963. (More on the Seminar and the first film, Robot, at bit.ly Charlie Magnetico stars Henson's first robot puppet, as well as his collaborator and first employee, Jerry Juhl. Henson had found Juhl working with Frank Oz in the early '60s, but Oz was still in high school, so Juhl was Henson's first hire. Juhl stars as not only "Charlie Magnetico: of Magnetico Electronics Incorporated," but also as Charlie's mother. In the film, Magnetico makes a small ? but important ? electronics part, used universally. When communications problem begin to plague Charlie's small shop, problems of supply and demand wreak a particular Henson-y (and explode-y) kind of havoc on, especially, the rocket industry. Those problems, in this film, are solved by Data Communications ? and by the machines. Juhl's collaborations with Henson, especially in the late 1960s, with their commercial work for IBM and American Oil, return to the theme of the interactions of man and machine (and their subsequent difficulties!). Juhl's interest turned to writing late in the decade, and besides penning some science fiction, he contributed greatly to the crafting of the Sesame Street and Muppets characters' personalities. He later became the head writer for The Muppet Show and Fraggle Rock. Early in the 1970s, he moved to California. And he was able to work .... + Informações

James Maury "Jim" Henson (Greenville, Mississippi, 24 de setembro de 1936 -- Nova Iorque, 16 de maio de 1990) foi o criador e manipulador dos bonecos Muppets. Jim começou sua carreira de manipulador de bonecos quando lançou, com sua futura noiva-colaboradora Jane Nebel Henson, o programa infanto-juvenil apresentado por bonecos chamado Sam e Seus Amigos, no qual apareceu pela 1ª vez o mais famoso dos personagens de Jim Henson, O sapo Kermit, nomeado no Brasil como Caco, o Sapo.
