Things that may or may not have been real.

    I have one of those memories of something that is incredibly vivid. I can remember every part of it, yet whenever I mention it to anybody else, they look at me like I'm mad. I'm hoping this might ring a bell with somebody else.

    Basically, it was a short, app 5 minute cartoon/filler animation of lots of androids on a big disk playing really cool classical music. All the robot people were playing the instruments; the violin, the cello, everything. The animation was excellent, and I remember that the androids had no faces, just reflective surfaces like a mirror.

    There was lots of them on the disc and it flew around in the air with a sky and space backdrop and the video matched the music perfectly. I remember this because the music was absolutely brilliant, and I wasnt a fan of classical as a kid.

    I am 99.7% sure this was an animation they showed a few times about 20 years ago, probably on either Sky or UTV, as they were the kids stations I watched, and I remember seeing it about 5 or 6 times. Everybody else thinks I am imagining it though.

    Anyone else remember something like, or am I mad?

    Anyone any other examples they want to check against reality?

    It was Ludwig i think.
    The idea was that it was the name of the central character(a mechanised egg or something) and also the first name of beethoven.
