In which Chris Robinson asks animators profound and inane questions that have little to do with animation. This week's guest is German animator and former folk legend, Andreas Hykade
Andreas Hykade in the future?
Andreas Hykade is a former car commercial star. He gave that up when his wife had a dream of him animating Johnny Cash inspired psychobillies. His animation films are known for their images of high heels, near-nudity and sexually suggestive movements. He agreed to meet in a used car lot in November at 3am in Hibbing, Minnesota
I get the greatest pleasure from dancing with myself.
If I could have – assuming this is your real name – a nom de plume, what would it be?
Lux Interior
The sport I do or would like to play is dancing with myself.
A (non-family member) person I idolize is Lux Interior.
The song that makes me tingle is “Bop Pills” by The Cramps.
The funniest thing that happened to me was dancing with myself while Lux Interior from The Cramps was singing “Bop Pills”.
A well-known figure in the world of independent animation, writer, author & curator Chris Robinson is the Artistic Director of the Ottawa International Animation Festival.
