Kenneth Tin-Kin Hung, movie "Because Washington is Hollywood for Ugly People"

Washugly see movie, the first work I have seen of sophisticated moving image skills used in artistic project. Animation by Kenneth Tin-Kin Hung, words by Mc Paul Barman, Music by John BlueExpo at the New Museum of Contemporary Art in New York, curated by Rhizome.

It is good to see a different way how artists use animation tools, I have stopped to go to Siggraph moving image shows and other similar events, where craft skills dominate over content, mainly showing some Polish depro movies.
