On the nature of my head

Posted by Trammapoline on Sep. 27 2008, commented by Ickis on Dec. 10 2008, (popular)  

Some people believe people were made from clay. Even if we were, I'm glad we didn't stay that way.
I'm glad my head's not made of Plasticine. If it were, I'd always be fiddling with it, making adjustments to my face, never quite content. And not only that: like a hirsuit chap always worried about getting food caught in his beard, I'd always be checking that bits hadn't been squished or moved out of place. And of course, in checking everything was in order, I would inevitably squish some key feature out of shape.

You should see the final episode of the first season of The Mupppet Show, where these guys were guest stars...

Specifically I am thinking of a sketch where two of them have clay faces that they continuously deform and reform...

That sounds The Awesome. It also sounds like one of the demons in Jan Svankmajer's version of Faust. Which is also The Awesome.
