DJ Spooky revisits a classic...
...a classic piece of racist propaganda that is. In 1915, D.W. Griffith released Birth of a Nation , a film shown in President Woodrow Wilson's Whitehouse and otherwise known as the celluloid standard for the KKK.
DJ Spooky, known for taking experimental forays, has outdone himself, as in late July he will be presenting Rebirth of a Nation, which effectively is a live remix/deconstruction video presentation with a score provided by Spooky as well.
Unfortunately, it is in New York at the Lincoln Ceneter, so I cannot make it to that groundbreaking little event. If you are in New York around that time, maybe you should consider seeing it. More info at the Lincoln Center site itself.
