"Over the Edge" in Concert
Negativland
Kitchener City Hall Council Chambers |200 King Street West in Kitchener
Negativland, while not exactly a “band” in the normal sense, have been consistently creating a stream of audio-art in performance, on record, and on their weekly radio show for the past 25 years.
Using found sound, sampled media, and their own music, Negativland's "illegal" collage and appropriation-based audio and visual works have touched on many things — pranks, media hoaxes, media literacy, the evolving art of collage, creative anti-corporate activism in a media saturated, multi-national world, the bizarre banality of suburban existence, file sharing, intellectual property issues, wacky surrealism, evolving notions of art and ownership and law in a digital age, artistic and humorous critiques of mass media and culture.
This show will feature a real time performance of a new ‘Over the Edge’ radio performance piece, which will be recorded for later broadcast on their weekly KPFA (Berkeley, California) radio show.
Listen to Negativland perform The Gun and The Bible (excerpt).
