Live to Tape: Make Me Psychic
@ Links Hall
3111 N Western Ave, Chicago, IL 60618
Opening Saturday, May 23rd, at 1PM
Drop your mind, pop your jaw and let your senses do the talking. An all-ages screening of psychedelic cartoons; a Saturday morning panoply of sensorial delights; a cereal bar to benefit S.A.C.K. (Supporting Artists with Children and/or Kids). If you are or were a child, get ready to get heady with visionary surrealities. Through the haze of memory we can pretend the cartoons were ever this good.
Julie Potratz performs live psychedelic cartoon while Lillie Carré and Alexander Stewart of the Eyeworks Festival of Experimental Animation bring a program of wild and wooly works by Sally Cruikshank, Kathy Rose, Trixy Sweetvittles and Amy Lockhart.

ABOUT LIVE TO TAPE
Links Hall is proud to present Live to Tape Artist Television Festival, a week-long celebration of artist television performances and screenings curated by Jesse Malmed. From May 18th to 24th, the festival will showcase video and performance works by more than sixty artists—spanning four decades—that take television as object, as concept, as antagonist, as material, as form, as inspiration. Some of the most exciting artists working on the edges of broadcast, video art, comedy and performance are brought together for a week of wild and wonky televisionary delights, offering a glimpse into the futures and pasts of artist television.
