Heartbeeps is a 1981 romantic sci-fi comedy film about two robots who fall in love and decide to strike out on their own. It was directed by Allan Arkush, and starred Andy Kaufman and Bernadette Peters as the robots. This was Kaufman's final performance in a theatrical film.
Stan Winston's make-up work for Heartbeeps made him one of the nominees for the inaugural Academy Award for Best Makeup in 1982, losing to An American Werewolf in London.
Heartbeeps is the third album by Los Angeles-based experimental punk band The Mae Shi. It was released on June 7, 2005. Notable influences on the musical style of the record include Melt-Banana, Deerhoof and UK grime, as well as their adolescent love of Def Leppard, Nine Inch Nails, Dante’s Inferno and worship music. As with Terrorbird, they recorded it themselves in their bedrooms and living rooms, making up recording techniques as they went along. Lyrics to the album are pulled from neuroscience textbooks and Plato’s Republic. __TOC__
