Description
A linked compilation of "Lose Yr Jobs", 1972 -- "Corrigan /Lund", 1974 -- "Sangsara", 1975), and Recent Li (1980)
Lose Yr Jobs consists of a fragment from a TV interview with President Nixon that is looped via the very physical act of repeatedly playing and rewinding the tape via the control lever on a ½ inch video player. In Corrigan/Lund the intuitive wandering of the videographer’s gaze reveals a situation that appears to precipitate a disrupting moment in the ritual passing of the reins of institutional power. The final piece, Sangsara, alludes to the preceding segments via an image generated in a particularly numinous real-time videographic performance. [Source: Alternative Projections]
