Larry Sommers was the man behind the voice in the opening animation to Think Thank's 2007-08' video "Thanks Brain!" He passed away earlier this month unexpectedly from heart failure. We'd like to take a moment to pay our respects to a fallen friend; a true believer in grass roots movements, building from the bottom up, and supporting local artists. Larry was the Printmaking Tech at the University of WA since 1985 and influenced many generations of aspiring young artists, including David Olsen co-animator of "Thunk", Todd Lown, the lead animator of "Thunk", "Cue the Birds!" and "Thanks Brain!", Christina Olsen Burtner the graphic designer for Think Thank, and countless others.
