Kurt Vonnegut Memorial Library



New video up for the Kurt Vonnegut Memorial Library!

It was a huge honor to work on a project in memory of Kurt Vonnegut. For those of you who don't know he is one of my favorite authors, to the point that he's the only author I have a tattoo for.


I'll let the work speak for itself.

As per usual, the awesome music was created by my friend/roommate/collaborator Jim Curtis.
