...hate to call them gimmicks, but I'm like a comedy trick shot artist. I do the real audio, and the thing I did on "Conan" with the lips, they're like funny visual gimmicks that kind of make it fun, it just keeps me interested. I was really getting fried on sketch comedy when Conan came along, and the idea of doing sketches that way was just such a pleasant diversion. That's like a vaudeville bit, that Bill Clinton thing that I do. But I like playing with silly visual tricks, and this is just one more where...
...most surprising thing about the symbol's growth is that, in an age of electronic proliferation, Andre's playground is not the Internet. Instead, it's the old walls, billboards and utility boxes of ordinary physical cities. The viral proliferation usually associated with chain e-mails is instead a visual play of images in three dimensions--a rare phenomenon if only for the simple reason that paths cross much more often electronically than they do across the world. Postering the world to get a message out is, as most student groups have found, much more difficult and erratic than sending...

Some of the best, and their makers, are analyzed here. But the visual thrill of videos is in their movement. What's really needed is a Greatest Hits...
...performance itself is strongest when it is most experimental; Shrew tends to stumble when it gets further away from innovation. The opening scene has Bianca (Meg Weathers '04) physically tied to a chair by her elder sister Kate (Sarah Porter, '03), making the power struggle both highly visual and immediate. The intensity of the moment, however, quickly finds itself with nowhere to go, and much of the energy dissipates as the dialogue of the scene progresses. In a variety of roles, among them Baptista, the girls' father, Jack Riccobono '03 shifts between several partially successful attempts at development-difficult enough...
