New York Spawned a Monster: The Animation of Ben Levin and Patrick Smith

New York Spawned a Monster: The Animation of Ben Levin and Patrick Smith
23 February 2009

Join the animation filmmakers on Friday, February 27 from 6:00 to 8:00 pm at Space 242!

Patrick Smith's animated oddities parallel our lives in innovative ways. Watch a destructive sock puppet take over its creator in "Puppet." In "Handshake," an innocent greeting between two people transforms into a struggle. See a boy imbibe a potion that allows him to explore the universe within himself in "Drink" and much more.

Ben Levin's hilarious animations address topics such as modern love, movies, role playing games and Republicans run amok. We're featuring titles such as the "GOP PSA" series, the "Ronin Dojo Community College DX: The Digital Pirates of Dark Water Saga," "H.P. Papercraft," "She She She She's A Bombshell," and more.

The animators will be in attendance. They will also be participating in a Q&A the next day, Saturday, 2/28 at noon (same location). Don't miss this!
RSVP is required for attendance. email anna@bostonunderground.org
