An Animated Interview With DEVO Singer Mark Mothersbaugh About Being Able to See Clearly for the First Time

In the latest episode of the California Inspires Me series (previously) from The California Sunday Magazine and Google Play, Barcelona-based art studio Manson animates an interview with Mark Mothersbaugh (previously) in which the DEVO frontman discusses a pair of glasses that let him see clearly for the first time at age seven.

It was the most incredible day and the most incredible feeling of my life, when we left the optometrist and I saw what a roof of a house looked like, and I saw smoke coming out of chimneys and I saw telephone wires.

Mothersbaugh also discusses the breakthrough of seeing The Beatles on TV and DEVO’s big break after moving to Los Angeles.
