| PLOT SYNOPSIS for Animal Charm: Golden Digest |
|
| Masterfully remixed by comic cut-ups Jim Fetterley and Rich Bott, ANIMAL CHARM's works are wildly inventive montages jam-packed with uncanny juxtapositions, startling dislocations, and ingenious visual rhymes. By re-editing elements assembled from the banal detritus of infomercials, corporate videos, and late-night TV, they scramble media codes, creating a kind of tic-ridden, convulsive collage, their disruptive gestures often re-investing conventional forms with subversive meanings. By compositing TV and reducing it to a kind of babble, they force television to not make sense. While this disruption is playful, it also reveals an overall 'essence' of mass culture that would not be apprehended otherwise. Works such as 'Stuffing', 'Ashley' and 'Lightfoot Fever' upset the hypnotic spectacle of TV viewing, revealing how advertising creates anxiety, how culture constructs 'nature' and how conventional morality is dictated through seemingly neutral images. By forcing television to babble like a raving lunatic, we might finally hear what it is actually saying. |
