DOUBLE BILL: NEGATIVLAND & PEOPLE LIKE US

Wednesday 18 October 2023 2023

This AV-Double Bill with Negativland and People Like Us on October 18, 2023 is a special one, because both acts use visual expressions in addition to the use of audio.

With Double Bill we pair two acts of which we think there is a musical match. Two main acts, twice as much to discover.

NEGATIVLAND PRESENT “IT’S NORMAL FOR SOME THINGS TO COME TO YOUR ATTENTION” WITH VIDEO DESIGN BY SUE-C
The Negativland project started in 1980, creating recordings, CDs, visual art, books, radio and live performances. The supergroup uses appropriated sounds, images, objects and texts. The multidisciplinary group stimulates, enthuses and surprises with an act that sharpens all senses.

PEOPLE LIKE US
Think about making a mood board, but one that is not limited to images alone. Since 1991, British artist Vicki Bennett has been working on audio-visual collages using sampling and other existing image and sound fragments. Under the name People Like Us, Vicki manipulates and recreates the original image she derives from the experimental and popular worlds of music, film and radio. In 2006 she was the first artist to gain unlimited access to the entire BBC archive.

“ This group has acknowledged the dystopia perpetually since the late 70s, making them more relevant, and all the better, as the world slides incrementally into meltdown. “
