Monochrom – The Earth Has Been Destroyed

The Earth Has Been Destroyed
The Earth Has Been Destroyed (2010, 194MB, 5:06 min)

Something new from the splendidly sideways Austrian art/mischief wranglers
Monochrom is always welcome and this piece is no exception.
Absurd ( Popcorn for Chrissakes!!), just about hanging together,
but hanging together artfully nonetheless; even a little bit chilling too.

Other Monochrom stuff on DVblog.

Three Transitions (1973, 7 MB, 1:32 min.)

Peter Campus presents three introspective self-portraits that incorporate his dry humor.

In 2007 I ran a little competition on my site centred aound
a musical setting I had made of a tiny poem by my friends and
collaborators Robert Roth & Carletta Joy Walker for
their magazine “And Then”.

I invited remixes, either musical or visual, of the song and
these two pieces, both utterly barking & delicately poetic at one
and the same time, came winging their way from the Smith Family
in Germany.
Wonderful!
