illegal art
October 30th, 2007
need to make a note of this while i remember. this guy came up in xlr8r recently and emoware’s anti-copyright stance stirred something in the dusky reaches of my consciousness.
illegal art is a movement headed by Philo T. Farnsworth fighting one aspect of copyright - “when it impedes an artist’s ability to interact with pre-existing recordings.” the illegal art label releases are generally sample-heavy and play with artistic recontextualization and manipulation.
let art beget art.
