There are several places where you feel like you can, it is broadcast directly from an alternative universe - motel TVs by the road, canals to access the public from cities you have never been, and adult swimming after midnight. Feeling is that anyone who fell asleep in the middle of looking "robotic chicken" just to be stunned awake and greeted by The Hypnotic Surrealism of the show as "Infombers" He knows intimately: where what stares at you from the TV screen is so bizarre and fantasy that you can't help, but respond to his call as a sailor drawn on a mermaid rock.

The average viewer is probably considering adult swimming as a network behind Rick and Morti, union repetitions of their favorite animated series for adults and Unusualities in the form of culture as "Space Spirit Coast to Coast", But true frauds and sick know that adult swimming is also home to some of the last remaining elements of truly important, original and pure dangerous expressions of imagination. No other network or program block can be drawn by spontaneous release of something like "Too many cooks" or now seasonal classics of horror like The Jule Dnevnik series. The block does not relieve these transfer works as one -off tricks in an attempt to become viral, but because the pressure border, inexpressible art explosions are the heart and soul of adult swimming.

Do not look away from the "Smalls" collection, or the curated episodes of the golden child at 4am, "out of the air". I was recently privileged enough to catch the two on the big screen, and allowing my senses to be overloaded with work that did something abundantly clear - adult swimming is an oasis of risky creativity when corporate suits require a safe, homogeneous desert.

Everyone even remotely familiar with my work on /movie knows that I have a deep loveube toward Animation is not aimed at childrenbut i rarely have the opportunity to wax poetic for the innovative animation that zero Interest in allure to the masses. Type of animation people discover after falling into bizarre holes in the internet forum. The type of things that would once show you only the older Cousin of Department, which you see once a year as a warning story, but you rightly recognize it as a semi -color of taste and culture. Everything is part of the "Smals" feels like you see something you've never been intended to see, because it's so aggressive no As well as any, mainstream animation values ​​as a must.

The designs of the characters are sometimes deliberately cruel or distorted, music is often, so you can start with a dead battery car on David Lynch's lost highway, and visuals are often So weird That you need to guess whether the popcorn you are in is dressed with psychedelics. And I say this as the deepest and most sincere compliment I can collect. Nothing about these shorts play it safely, and watching it scratch itching in the deepest recesses of the brain, one hidden from easy access thanks to the years of dried, curved grim left of the overwhelming consumption of a stagnant, a discharged slope that is located in us.

The exhibition, which I attended by great shorts from past years and reviews of upcoming releases, could not foresee where one of the stories was moving. It was exciting to sit down and fully surrender to the films, allowing myself to lose myself in the Wonderland land created through manually drawn animation, digital art, and even films changed to Capcut, aka editing software owned by the same company as Tutel. At times disturbingly disturbing in other laughter-loud funny, looking "crackers" was the most evident I felt like I was watching something new for a very long time.

For the last 14 years, producer and editor Dave Hughes has released his television series on psychedelic anthology "Off the Air", but unless you are insomnia, you've probably never seen an episode of the long -standing series. Since 2011, "Off the Air" has attacked air waves during the cemetery slot at 4am, unveiled without explanation or narration as video mixing of awareness enlargement clips (both animated and live-action) loosely associated with a common theme. There are no breaks or ads, only a database of visual potpourri that can deceive your sleeping brain in thinking that you have entered a state of lucid dreaming. It is a vicious, sometimes unusual but absolutely genius. Many of the clips presented by adult swimming artists are intertwined with clips on the Internet.

The episodes shown on the screening were the ones they received, other people, except Hughes, including Madi Brewer's "Kring" (who also showed the "short" chips of "Smals"), Sarah Schmidt/Sun "Sunny" (sun "" sun "," sun "," sun "" sun " "The Sun" and the "Sun" of "The Sun", and the "Sun" of "Sun", "Sun" of "Sun". Chihuahua in Capo's "Boy Band", I think I saw the face of God.

Hughes pointed out that he hopes that guests' cursations could be the future of "Off the Air", and if future installments are something like those shown to the audience at Vidiotti in Los Angeles, the series can (and should) continue indefinitely.

With 14 years out of the air and over 300 shorts made through the "Smalls" program, adult swimming has provided proverbial elism for visionary animators and launch for potential new specialists, pilots or series. And the range of styles, senses of humor and approaching storytelling are the result of getting freedom to create without micromans or significant studio surveillance. Of course, people like Dave Hughes help lead the artists on their way to make the best possible project, but based on the testimony of all who spoke during Q & AS on the screening of Vidiotti, everyone was allowed to trust their unique visions and never had to shorten their intentions. Adult swimming has always been at the forefront of nourishing spaces for experimental, intellectual, avant -garde animation and has never been afraid of pushing the animation boundaries shown on mainstream television.

Once, for a long time, their creative changes were generally accepted as strange queer, but in a landscape for a party that is becoming more and more repaired, uniform and pure conservative - projects like "Smells" and "out of the air" have become a beacon in the storm. The world is dark, absurd, and sometimes a deeply confused place and that is a necessary part of existence To have an art that not only reflects it, but is ready to find ways to laugh about it, so that we do not lure damned minds trying to survive it. There is power in the subversion and refusal to introduce the algorithm, and the sovereignty offered to adult swimming artists helps encourage the audience that rejects assimilation and requires more diverse and complex contributions to the entertainment industry.

And because art is absolutely a point, adult swimming has public playlist of "smalls" shorts on YouTube as well Full episodes of "Off the Air", not to mention Livestream available directly Web site of adult swimming. Adult swimming can also be seen at the maximum or through the adult swimming application.
