From Olympia to Los Angeles, musicians and film artists
up and down the Pacific coast are getting together to liberate
the music video from its status-quo context as self-promotional
tool and transform it into a new, confrontational art form, displacing
major-label preen with honest, direct address and DIY visual kinesis
Despite having next-to-nothing budgets, production values are
way high, and you will be as well.
F or this special Monkey Town screening, Nick will also host the
'digital premiere' of Sunn 0)))'s new video for
"Reptile Lux" by Tomas Casas, and a never-seen clip
of Ariel Pink's 'Cable Access Follies' directed
by Los Angeles public access gurus, the Threee
Geniuses.
For more information on this screening, please read the article
in PAPER magazine: http://www.papermag.com/?section=article&parid=1242
Assembled by musician and curator Nick
Hallett, the reel is a follow-up to last fall's 23
Reasons to Spare New York, a syllabus of the Big Apple's
new psychedelic wave. This screening will likewise involve its
fair share of the heavy, heady visuals (this is the west coast,
man!) Just imagine what MTV would look like if it still broadcast
subversive, anti-consumerist, revolution-invoking, and seizure-inducing
films, soundtracked by bands that actually push the boundaries
of sound.
