Directors’ Statement
Luke: ‘I commend you for taking on the brave task of parodying the subject matter of this course module. I believe, indeed, that the apparent gravity of art occasionally needs to be questioned, and by donning the jester’s hat, you have effectively done that’ – Michaël Boucherie
James: ‘I found a new appreciation of classical music’
