Andy Yak must deal with his reality. The story is told through
electronic music, kinetic sculpture, performance, video and comics.

The mini comic on display acts as a playbill for the performance. Each component of the project feeds the other for a fuller understanding
and richer experience. Part of the proceeds of the comic go toward Stemcell research which can potentially help cure diseases like
Multiple Sclerosis and Parkinsons Disease.
"Antelope Eater" is the third performance of a series related to a set of stories of people living in Hallow County. Previous performances
have been conducted in Los Angeles and Pittsburgh. |
