We had the opportunity to ask a couple of questions to Christian Schlaeffer^[artist] author of The return of John Frum^[wiki] animation featured in the June 2010 program: Systems.
Google says he studied communication-design at the university of applied sciences augsburg, Germany, where he contributed to the university’s comic-magazine "strichnin" and graduated in 2010 with an animated short named "the return of john frum". Some sources also state that he´s an odd cat.

I started in 2005 and have done a handful of live-action shorts on DV since then. Unhappy with the less-than-mediocre image quality, I applied at some universities, where I would have liked to study animation or film, but was rejected. So I started communication-design in augsburg, my hometown, in 2005 and made films during the holidays.
