At turns callow and visionary, this collection of short works is poised to inspire, surprise, and delight. — Abraham FerrerIn This Program: The Cogmill Kids, Hum, 127 Minutes, Emma And The Butt, Nuwa, Shut It All Down, Disintegration 93-96, A Time To Bleed, Phetmixay Means Fighter, Muscles & Mascara, The Other Side
