The trouble is knowing what to ask for. Luckily, there are a few people out there mining the depths for golden nuggets of goodness. Like 80's music videos. Not just any videos. Fans of alt-eighties stuff that never got shown on the MTV have made their way to YouTube, just waiting to be watched by adoring fans. Of course the hit parade is there, all of those over done 80's anthems that anyone and their mother probably likes (or hates). There are also some tasty treats. Videos that many alive at the time never even new existed. Videos by Bad Brains, Butthole Surfers, Afrika Bambaata, Gang of Four, Husker Dü... And the list goes on." Link
monochrom is an art-technology-philosophy group having its seat in Vienna and Zeta Draconis. monochrom is an unpeculiar mixture of proto-aesthetic fringe work, pop attitude, subcultural science, context hacking and political activism. Our mission is conducted everywhere, but first and foremost in culture-archeological digs into the seats (and pockets) of ideology and entertainment. monochrom has existed in this (and almost every other) form since 1993.
