772: The Compulsion of Art
With the guiding hand of Prof. Siracusa choosing the curriculum, we watch select animated shorts from the Netflix series “Love, Death + Robots.” John’s quest to find the perfect photorealistic CGI animation continues. Tony does his companions a solid if he’s ever killed on a moon. The others debate if they represent love, death, or robots. We try to reconnect with our inner pool-polishing robots. It’s a real team effort.
"Love, Death + Robots"
Jason Snell with John Siracusa, Annette Wierstra, Brian Hamilton and Tony Sindelar
