The Satiric Comedy of CODY LEMKE (Schlock and Awe) and the Experimental film and video work of SPENSER WISE. PLUS select N. Korean propaganda shorts.

Stand-up comedian Cody Lemke (creator and curator of the lively live-riffing SHLOCK AND AWE film series) and host Andrew Mazur (me) will riff-lively over some choice 1950’s USA domestic propaganda. This will be followed by a taster of North Korean “educational” films.

AND THEN…!

3 short films from multimedia artist and performer SPENSER WISE, including new work!

A Middlebury College graduate with a BA in Music, [Spenser’s] work spans screenwriting, video art, performance, and music, with training in creative writing, composition, and experimental media.

Exploring the archetype of an artist who yearns for his "body of work" to carry on, knowing his own limited form is fading fast...

A Q&A with the artist will follow.
