CYBERCHASE – Connecting with the Arts
In
Episode 406: A Change of Art, statues of Hacker
are popping up all across Cyberspace. It's his latest scheme
- art therapy! Heartbroken after losing to the kids yet
again, Hacker throws himself into sculpture and gives his
work away. Problem is, wherever one turns up, the power
goes off. The CyberSquad investigates to see what's causing
all these changes. Is Hacker back to his old tricks? Or
has he finally had a change of heart? And what's with the
sparkly purple dots on the sculptures?
