This animation uses stop animation. The first part of it has everyday objects forming a person's head. As two head's approach each other, they split apart into individual pieces and seem to almost battle each other. In one part it showed a book biting into a plate and shattering it again and again. What amazed me was the ability to make things seem like they were in midair despite being in stop animation. It must have taken them a while to plan and execute all of this.
The next animation we watched was by the Quay Brothers, titled The Cabinet of Jan Svankmajer. The animation has one part where a pair of sticks, which seem to be used as a pair of arms, looks and turns a pamphlet around and opens the pamphlet up. When the pamphlet is open, some pins move around the table. Unless the table the animation was done on was soft enough, I can't imagine how they could have gotten the pins to stay upright on the table.
