STAND BY FOR FAILURE - A DOCUMENTARY ABOUT NEGATIVLAND
25 PLN
Description
Since 1959, when he was five, David ‘The Weatherman’ Wills has been recording and reporting and broadcasting on his life, self and anything he likes (such as the weather, toilets flushing, and intercepted cell phone conversations). Together with childhood friends Richard Lyons and Mark Hosler they formed Negativland, which quickly became an absurd and noisy multimedia world without boundaries, ownership or privacy. Negativland's complex chaos of plunderphonics poses both serious and silly questions about sound, media, technology, control, propaganda, power and perception in the Global Village. It's media about media about media. As we are massaged into the singularity, the medium reveals that any message is all in our heads.
