Bjork, Silver Pants and the Innards of your Television

Enough said.

“Watching television is like taking black spray paint to your third eye” (Bill Hicks) But who doesn't like a little "its so bad... it's good"?

Totally absorbed by Anahita Razmi at MOVING IMAGE London

Whether you think TV is brain rot, imagination inducing, or eye opening... Anahita Razmi likes it. Right now at Moving Image Fair London, she has a video installation of popular Austrian TV presenters reciting Lucio Fontana's 1952 manifesto... about TV, of course. 

An excerpt from Fontana's Television Manifesto of the Spatial Movement:

"...the still unknown spaces of the cosmos - spaces to which we address ourselves as data of intuition and mystery, the typical data of art as divination. For us, television is a means that we have been waiting for to give completeness to our concepts."

His face says it all, don't you think?

And just for kicks Korean installation artist Nam June Paik (1932-2006). 

TV. So versatile.
