Live and learn! We just found out last week that groundhog=woodchuck. We don’t come from woodchuck country nor have we ever witnessed a ground hog seeing or not seeing his shadow, but Spring Is In the Air, even if we know in our heart of hearts that it’s really a Fake Out before the Long Grey Pre-Spring.

So the manic rainbow aesthetic of the animated video and multimedia performance that CARTUNE XPREZ brings to Holocene tonight, Sunday February 24 at 9 PM, is as welcome as seven minutes of sweet sun. Thank Hooliganship’s Peter Burr and PICA for filling Holocene with WNTR WRKS, new animated videos from Takeshi Murata (NY), Barry Doupe (Vancouver, BC), Bruce Bickford, Josh Mannis, and more with performances by E*Rock, Hooliganship (Burr and Christopher Doulgeris who are premiering their new work “Trash”), Gay Deceivers, and Nollifur with musical interludes by DJ Beyonda.

Smells like: early 80s video game soundtrack, animatronic theme song, New Wave keyboards, glitchery, Peter Max, pixels, mutated visual bitstreams, jittery collaged artificiality.
WHAT TO DO NOW?
