Animation Breakdown
Computer Baroque

Friday 20 March – Saturday 21 March 2009

'Animation is above all the art of the in-between, of the interval, of the beholder, of the mental movement, the stream of consciousness, the free flow of associations. It is the art of reading between the lines. It is not about the art that is on the image, but about the art that emerges between the images'.

Edwin Carels, 'The Animate Book'

Addressing the wide range of animation techniques used by artists, the Animation Breakdown weekend presents two screenings and a study day that provide an opportunity for broader discussions about the relationship between the moving image, drawing, and the digital.
