Negativland - "Pastor Dick's
Mailbox" Click here to launch the site in a new window.
Statement:
Pastor Dick has been a long time associate of Negativland's,
spreading the gospel of Jesus Christ since 1981. Working with
Negativland on stage, CD, video and radio, Pastor Dick has most
recently been praised and attacked for his innovative web site
"PASTOR DICK'S JUKEBOX" (http://www.negativland.com). Pastor Dick
has received so many letters about the Christ-centered music reviews
on this website that Negativland decided to present a selection of
them for your enjoyment and called it "PASTOR DICK'S MAILBOX" (also
at http://www.negativland.com) . It is this additional letters
selection that has won a special award from YEAR ZERO ONE for its
state of the art web design. Enjoy...
Bio:
Since 1980
Negativland have been creating records, video, radio, web sites and
live performance using appropriated sound, image and text. Taken
mostly from corporately owned
mass culture, Negativland re-arranges these bits and pieces to make them
say things they never intended to. In doing this kind
of cultural opposition and "culture jamming" (a term coined by Negativland
in 1984), Negativland have been sued twice for copyright infringement
and have, since 1991, been aggressively and publicly involved in advocating a
significant reform of this nations copyright laws.
