2011 banzai films by brad brace: http://www.iabrace.com/

please download, then view: 176*144 vlc recommended; these films were all made with 
a palm-sized $100 camera and perplexing open-source software; the artist has been 
refused corrupt-bogus cultural/institutional funding, employment, and representation 
for 40 years; the time has long come to wash-away this stupidly-obscene feudal 
arts-system. For every star-driven enterprise there are corollary benefits for those 
who support it and keep their mouths shut. Admit the truth and have it retched from 
your complicit corporate gullets. Criminal institutions who perpetuate the malicious 
scam of "art history" shall have their plunder expropriated and denizens/acolytes 
terminated. Banzai!

($50 dvd pre-orders include the molecular-recidivist-cultural essay "fire ring 
theory" and available through

~ earlier filmworks include:

"silent innings" are curious little mp4s of a nicaraguan baseball scoreboard made in 
2008; fanboat films are short mp4 artworks by brad brace, originally posted on 
facebook in 2009 -- wild outboard sax music amid shifting layered imagery inspired 
by florida fanboats and columbia river barge traffic -- special bonus collection: 
matchbook movies from 1984 (small quicktime movies intended for looped-viewing in a 
corner of your desktop) over 87 films in all! http://tinyurl.com/43g8w52

You cannot politically defy the institutions when all you really wanted was to be 
clasped to their bosoms and hope in time to be cherished under the very framework of 
oppressive values you are thinking of overcoming. That would be co-optation, 
revolution only in the sense of a circulation of elites rather than the extirpation 
of the very impulses of elitism.

most institutional-art remains bound up with sign-play: it's 
a meta-art largely dependent on its echoes of past 
radicalism, or conversely on its witty frisson-laced 
inversions of orthodox notions of what makes art edgy, 
experimental, important... but when art styles finally shed 
all those ghost traces of corrupt history and achieve a 
perfect non-referential blankness, the past will cease to be 
a museum or even an archive, and become a simply a set of 
resources: materials to be used without reverence or 
nostalgia... no longer pointing to the past, art will be 
ready to reconnect to the world happening beyond the 
screen...  /:b
