DeeCAP is short for Dundee Comics Art Performance. Artists and writers bring their strips to life with live interaction alongside a visual slideshow – it’s comics and zine based entertainment at its best! DeeCAP was inspired by R. Sikoryak’s popular Carousel evenings of ‘Cartoon Slide Shows and Other Projected Pictures’ in New York. http://carouselslideshow.com/
