Catch This, Too: BruTube

Tonight's theme is OMG-LOL-ASAP

It was only a matter of time before YouTube videos became subjects of artistic curation. And that time is now.

Tonight at Kirkland Arts Center, Cable Griffith hosts BrüTübe: OMG-LOL-ASAP, a night of humorous and provocative online video series, presented by six guest curators: Joey Veltkamp, David Schmader, Betsy Brock, Mike Pham and Chris Weber.

Yes, you're thinking, "We've all seen enough hilarious cat videos; what of them?"

Well, it's worth considering: what place do these videos serve in our lives and modern media? Does accessibility trump originality? In the endless expanse of videos, "likes", comments and links, how are we adapting? Are normal jokes even funny anymore?

Answer these cosmic questions tonight.

Or just enjoy beer and snacks while taking in some of more obscure clips from around the online video world.

Show starts at 7:00pm. Arrive early to get a good seat.

Kirkland Arts Center, 620 Market Street, Kirkland, WA
