Video for Power, Taboo, and the Artist

http://visitsteve.com/work/video-for-power-taboo-and-the-artist/

In the summer of 2010, we asked artists and curators worldwide to record themselves responding and commenting on the following questions: What are or should be the taboos honored by cultural institutions? Why should public funds be spent to support artwork that might offend some segment of the general public? Does “concern for the community” justify (self)censorship? What alternative institutional models are emerging in the face of restrictive conditions attached to public funding? The responses and creative comments of artists and curators worldwide are collected in Power, Taboo and the Artist, an ongoing video project produced by the National Coalition Against Censorship and the Vera List Center for Art and Politics at The New School. The project is part is part of a series of events How Obscene is This organized on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the NEA Decency Clause and addressing diminished public funding for the arts and the culture of self-censorship or outright censorship that has taken hold in arts institutions. Besides the video, the series includes panel discussions and a censored film series. See all the videos. Below is my contribution:

G-Chat: Rappers Gettin’ Famo

http://fffff.at/g-chat-rappers-gettin%E2%80%99-famo/

Last week on my radio show, Awesome New Place, I was joined by author and Nation of Thizzlam blogger Willy Staley, for a special episode called G-Chat. Our talk circled loosely around rap in the YouTube era, touching on rappers getting famo, memes vs. trends, scraper bikes staying relevant, DIY cereal backpacks and instructional dance videos, Bubb Rubb, turf dancing, format wars, the Lil B – Soulja Boy connection, the culdesac vs. the hood, haul videos and mommy blogging, bros icing bros, 4Loko, white tees, vans, and “How the Looming Specter of Viral Marketing Ruins Rap Songs About Consumer Goods.” Though we raised more questions than we answered, its definitely a must-listen chapter in FAT’s ongoing discussions of famo, viral marketing, and rap. Stream the show right here and view the playlist for tons of links to relevant vids and media on all the above topics and so much more. “If you’re doing the reverse running man in skinny teal jeans in your culdesac and no one is there to film it, what are you really doing?” – Willy Staley, 2010
