Sound/FUN/Fury

A child’s vision of the world: sound, fun, and fury. Find it all among four projects: the Black Box Gallery where you can experience a host of experimental films by MCAD students and faculty, including Tom Schroeder’s Turboencabulator; the east lawn where the hallucinating effects of a lighted balloon poppy field and the oddity of a glow-in-the-dark croquet tournament with Alice will surprise you; and the mobile Arcade Backpack outfitted with new games for your amusement.  Catch it if you can!
