What
The multimedia video show, Cartune Xprez visits the ASU Tempe campus Nov. 12. The freshest incarnation of Cartune Xprez highlights the multimedia dance duo Hooliganship, featuring Peter Burr and Christopher Doulgeris, who currently are touring the country. They present a 70-minute program of short animated videos that celebrates the wilderness of imagination through motion pictures. Alongside this cartoon theater, Hooliganship performs their most recent piece, Realer, where audience members wear a pair of 3D glasses to watch a televised parade gone awry.
Hilary Harp, assistant professor in the ASU Herberger College School of Art and faculty sponsor for ASU’s Society for Art Video, spoke about the significance of this show to Intermedia students.
“Cartune Xprez is an outstanding touring animation festival showing some of the best experimental animation being made today," she said. "It’s a rare opportunity to see exceptional animation art in Phoenix.”
Additional featured Cartune Xprez artists include Bruce Bickford, Eric Dyer, Shana Moulton, Takeshi Murata, Paper Rad and more.
