“The Urgency” by Extreme Animals (2014)
Extreme Animals is a performance/music project by David Wightman and Jacob Ciocci. They perform “The Urgency” live, and have it available for download / purchase online.
“The Urgency” is …”one part send up of consumer electronics, one part lamentation of the negative impact of the internet, and one part explosive collage of animation, found footage, and critical self-reflection. The hybrid sound of Extreme Animals (which fuses elements of hardcore, remix, gabber, and experimental electronic noise) intermingle with a hyperactive meditation on Apple products, rugged individualism, and the disturbing power of networked digital connectedness. “

“Visiting Artist Talk- UCLA” by LaTurbo Avedon (2014)
“Simply put, the artist keeps her real identity unknown, but promotes and creates her web art using the screen name “LaTurbo Avedon.” This “avatar” is actively involved in most popular social media networks and exists as a sort of ongoing performance piece/persona cultivated by the artist.
