40+ Artist-Made Karaoke Videos
Karaoke's frequent habitat is the bar; its participants are stars; its technology
is glamorous; and its message is personal glory. From Tokyo to Tallinn, these
videos transform this amateur medium to explore issues of national identity,
local cultures, Hollywood media cliches and the relationships between imagery,
text and live performance... |

Video Art from China
Expanding economies, cities and cultural exchanges plus evaporating
history are all factors generating the bold, active art world of
China today. Video is a major player. Its flexibility answers artists'
needs for documentation, animation, appropriation, performance
records, conceptual projects and manipulatable imagery, constructing
while questioning the equation of art and individuality.
