    Photographer/cartoonist Flash Rosenberg talks and walks through hundreds of original, projected images to challenge what we see with what we know. This is optical humor. Not jokes and not just funny pictures, but funny ways of picturing what we think we know to be true in the world. Blending the logic of a scientist, the irreverence of a humorist, and the pith of a sage, she shows how a slice of pizza can define infinity. She demonstrates how to make love archival, and how to laugh at the speed of light. She translates what's visible into verbal snapshots. This smart show is for anyone who has ever dreaded, taken, or been in a picture. Written, imaged and performed by Flash Rosenberg with a special guest cameo by her brother, the famed musician and composer, Ken Rosenberg. Rating: PG-13.
