These interviews document both their creative process and thoughts about experimental animation’s ontology to give readers insight into contemporary practice.

Acknowledging that process is a fundamental operation underlining experimental practice, the book includes not only chapters by international academics, but also interviews with well-known experimental animation practitioners such as William Kentridge, Jodie Mack, Larry Cuba, Martha Colburn and Max Hattler.
