over at Newgrounds. Radiskull & Devil Doll (Joe Sparks)In the early 2000s, Joe Sparks created Radiskull & Devil Doll – a rather simplistic and crude Flash animation which soon gained traction and earned a loyal following. Joe initially worked for Paracomp a company who in the early 90s merged with Macromind to become Macromedia.
Joe was an intrinsic part of Shockwave.com and the development of rich media, with Radiskull & Devil Doll being his own personal project. He animated and recorded all sound and music himself, which served only to inspire further random animations. Joe now works for Google and has been featured in a huge range of publications, having worked on some fairly exciting projects. You can read his bio and watch the cartoon on his website.
