Description:
A major UK electronic image retrospective and state-of-the art survey, taking in the best of video art, computer animation and creative work for broadcast television. This programme logs into the constantly shifting network of British computer animation; a data-compressed journey through some of the most exciting and innovative developments with the new technologies. The programme represents the work of key practitioners whose contribution to the visual field has enriched our way of seeing the world. From totally synthetic 'virtual' sculptures to pixellated Tex Avery-style comic cut-ups, This Side of the Channel's focus on computer animation promises to be one of the highlights of the VIDEO POSITIVE 93 screenings series.
