Erik Pauser & Johan Söderberg, |
The more experiments are done with found footage, the less significance the images seem to contain. For true culture jammers like the Emergency Broadcast Network and the Lucky People Center, this is no problem. On the contrary, without a moment's hesitation they lose themselves, and with them the viewer, in the media's language game. Like modern Don Quixotes they carry on a primitive guerilla war on several fronts against the power of television. EBN like to terrorize their audience during their live performances. They employ gigantic television robots, which include the Emergency Broadcast Vehicle, a rotating satellite dish and a real telepodium to swamp the audience with the nonsense they are used to, to be able to consume without thought. EBN's just one warning : "For use by eye and ear only. The semiological guerilleros are not responsible for any physical, emotional or mental damage caused by the viewing of this entertainment product. Totally safe when used in combination with other drugs or alcohol. Consult your doctor if symptoms persist !" |
