HRTV Joins Internet Media Venture as Campus Affiliate

Nibblebox.com will provide access to student TV programming

Current offerings include shows like "A Bunch of Villagers Getting Eaten," a serial where animated characters do the moonwalk as they wander around a tropical land searching for the culprit who is systematically eliminating their people.

In "American Standard," another serial program, two college-age characters both named Andrew look to improve their social lives by getting lessons in dealing with women from a character known as the Kung Fu Jew.

"Absurdity ensues," according to the Nibblebox.com website.

The site also includes an interactive program called "Virtual Rob," where viewers can click on the character and his surroundings and watch him respond, and "PopVox," which displays lyrics along side music videos.

Nibblebox is funded by about $5.5 million in venture capital, and Yank said the site's national conference in New York, which he attended two weekends ago, was a "classy" affair.

The festivities included a party at the SoHo loft of Doug Liman, producer of the successful films "Swingers" (1996) and "Go" (1999) and one of Nibblebox's developers.
