The whimsy and weirdness of cartoons conjures up new worlds of thought and possibility. The animated shorts in this program bring us to a liminal space of transformation, engaging with anime, classic Nicktoons, stop-motion, and real-life archival media. Together, they dream up fantastical futures and remind us who we truly are. We are lovers. We are ethereal. And sometimes we are an expired can of tuna singing in a karaoke bar.
