The Marvels of Media Awards is the very first media awards ceremony, festival, and exhibition to celebrate media-makers on the autism spectrum. The exhibition shares the artistry of the Marvels of Media nominees, providing a perspective of media-making through the lens of autism. Seventeen works are on view, including playable video games and short films ranging in style from experimental to documentary. The works were created by filmmakers, artists, writers, animators, and bloggers on the autism spectrum from many different cultural, social, economic, and artistic backgrounds. This selection of media and related objects reveals a diverse artistry, reflecting iconic moments and movements in recent moving-image history. Curators: Sara Guerrero-Mostafa, Miranda Lee, and Tiffany Joy Butler.
