“Snappy Tom” by Rubber House

Melbourne-based Rubber House continues to develop a highly personal cartoon aesthetic with their latest video, “Snappy Tom,” for Tijuana Cartel. In the video, a succession of colorful organisms become infected with a virus—or “killer beat”. It’s good fun for a few minutes, though I eagerly await Rubber House applying their distinctive approach toward a more ambitious vision.
