Bone carvings.
Bone carving in Bali, Indonesia, is a rich, traditional art form using cow/buffalo bone and horns to create intricate decorative items and jewelry, originally tied to Hindu mythology and spirituality, with artisans in villages like Tampak Siring transforming animal by-products into cultural artifacts, often featuring deities, mythical creatures like Garuda, and spiritual symbols for homes, temples, and international markets. The process involves sterilizing bones (often from slaughterhouses), carving with chisels and files, and polishing, turning organic material into detailed sculptures and functional art.

He also brought "Mighty Mouse" to Saturday-morning screens in the 1980s, and his manifold attempts to bring “cartoons” into the realm of serious adult cinema—and lend them artistic legitimacy—were light-years ahead of their time.
