Sod the videos, go and buy Interstella 5555. It's the movie of the album. Sounds daft (ho ho) but it's a movie with only the album as the sound, no words. Works surprisingly well.

I've heard about that, certainly sounds like a very intresting idea. I love discovery what a class album, one of the best piece's of electronica in an album

5555 is brilliant

Worth it if you can track it down

I'm pretty sure it'd be Aerodynamic you'll remember.

Arpegius · 21 Jan 2006 at 11:18

I'm trying to get the action figures but can't seem to be able to buy them. I've gone to the official page and clicked on the button that says buy here but nothing happens. Can anyone please try for me? Cheers

nah nothing happens here either

a few weeks ago i was clearing my room and found the "homework" album after listening to it again i remembered how great daft punk are and decided to have a look around the net for info if any tours etc but sadly i found absoluetly nothing

Gilly · 21 Jan 2006 at 11:25

I was sticking by my first answer, but having watched them it was Aerodynamic that had the action in. One More Time was just them playing.

superb vids i must agree

I'm just reading the initial question again and I still can't really understand it. What is or who is Ulysses?

PS You'll find out that one of the guys in 5555 is called Arpegius

The Roman name of Odysseus. It's also a book written by James Joyce.

I reckon the OP is talking about the cartoon though. Ulysses 31 I think it was called.

"andy" · 21 Jan 2006 at 11:49

ulysses31 was an 80s cartoon that the animated daft punk videos copy the style of

I remember reading in mixmag last year or the year before that daft park were giving up touring.

Ulysses 31 - Greatest kids cartoons ever made. Thats fact - not opinion

Gilly · 21 Jan 2006 at 21:56

Nay laddie. Mysterious Cities of Gold and Jayce and the Wheeled Warriors were better...

Cities of Gold was very VERY good - but I stand by Ulysses.
