Andy Biskin's Goldberg's Variations had a sold-out run as part of the Brooklyn
Academy of Music's 2013 Next Wave Festival on October 17–19. In this piece, with
music and animation by Andy Biskin, cartoons of Rube Goldberg come to life in a
series of droll black-and-white animations based on Goldberg’s original
illustrated designs. Performed by an all-star sextet featuring Biskin on
clarinet, the music channels early jazz, vaudeville, and Looney Tunes-style
mayhem to add tongue-in-cheek drama to these masterstrokes of ingenuity and wit.
