Koppelvision
humankind's search for a God turns up no answers; only questions from the man in the moon—who strangely resembles Ted Koppel
“It's a flow, a collage, an hour's worth of stimulating and provocative images that build into an accumulation of visual insights.
Even going into dark corners, they have a bountiful wit and playfulness, sometimes almost childlike, that gets us beyond the sturm und drang, angst-laden drippings of the Generation X world.”
—Mike Steele, Minneapolis Star Tribune
