BBtv: Monochrom's "Kiki, Bubu, and the Self"

Xeni Jardin 12:49 am Thu Jul 10, 2008

Austrian subversive art collective monochrom present an all-new installment of the philosophical sock puppets Kiki and Bubu on today's episode of Boing Boing tv.

These fuzzy logicians ponder the true nature of individual identity in capitalist societies, and connect the dots between Star Trek fandom, Sesame Street characters, Broadway musicals, and racy jpegs.
