Captain Skinner and Allen Cordell of "Art Show!"

If Bill Pullman, Bob Ross, and Wade Wilson had an ADHD baby it would look and sound a lot like the charismatic, super talented, and slightly off kilter artist (and very amateur scientist) Captain Skinner. And we love it! With weekly drops, "Art Show" blends art, comedy, and scientific facts that crash and burn around you like tiny meteors in a way that goes beyond unique and straight into strange. A bold new world if you would (and if you would not). The show can be found on Youtube on the Etch Film channel as well as substack under Etch Studio. Skinner is a beloved artist, creator, comedian, writer, and general manifestation of psychedelic nightmare experiences who has infected many medias worldwide! He’s created art for Grammy winning albums and bands like High on Fire and Mastodon, award-winning music videos and films, commercial experiences for Adult Swim, Warner Brothers, and hosted shows for Super Deluxe and various music festivals. You can find his art on murals the world over as well as on skateboards and comics and t-shirts and toys. Skinner exists as a bizarre mixture of entertainment and visual intensity.  Allen is an award-winning filmmaker obsessed with things that are weird and beautiful, especially when filmed at 24 frames per second and layered with insane sound design. He’s directed a handful of music videos for Beach House, Dan Deacon, Girl Talk (and others!), as well as the short film The Lizard Laughed adapted from a comic book by Noah Van Sciver.  If you like what we do (and if you don't!) you could always buy us a kofi! https://ko-fi.com/autimagination [https://ko-fi.com/autimagination] WE LOVE OUR SPONSORS!! Thurocleanfl.com [http://thurocleanfl.com/] AND OUR NEW BABY an LGBQT and ND owned and operated small business using vegan and organic products to bring you phenomenal smells! Hexennacht.com [http://hexennacht.com/] Check out Autimagination's affilliates and get 10% off or more using our PROMO CODES NerdyNuts.com [http://nerdynuts.com/] PROMO CODE PUPDUFFY10 Multitasky.com [http://multitasky.com/] PROMO CODE PupDuffy JustStrong.com [http://juststrong.com/] PROMO CODE PupStrong10 Eat Your Vitamins!
