[ISEA2012] Keynote: Mark Hosler – Adventures in Illegal Art: Creative Media Resistance and Negativland

Abstract

Is Negativland a “band”? Media hoaxers? Activists? Musicians? Filmmakers? Decide for yourself in this presentation that uses films and stories to illustrate some of Negativland’s creative projects, hoaxes, pranks and “culture jamming”. Their work spans media literacy, audio and visual collage, creative activism in a media saturated multi-national world, file sharing, intellectual property issues, evolving notions of art and ownership and law in the digital age.
