We're thrilled to welcome back Negativland, presenting their new AV extravaganza SIGNIFICANTLY LESS DECEPTIVE with their long time visual collaborator, SUE-C, who will be there live and in person doing her hands-on thing. The opening act is the impossible-to-accurately-describe Irene Moon, who will break your brain with even more words and sounds about insects that you didn't know you didn't know. ∆ Legendary sound collage group Negativland and live cinema visual artist SUE-C collaborate to bring you their latest audio-visual performance about our minds, our current realities, and the evolving forms of media and technology that orchestrate our perceptions: SIGNIFICANTLY LESS DECEPTIVE. For more than four decades, Negativland has redefined experimental media through their culture-jamming practice, exposing the mechanics of misinformation and spectacle. Paired with SUE-C’s handmade real-time video, SIGNIFICANTLY LESS DECEPTIVE becomes a dense, multi-sensory investigation into how our collective belief systems are shaped. “An urgent show by Negativland and artist SUE-C calls time on a tech dystopia that is as malevolent as it is stupid... to meet the terrifying contemporary moment... as the world slides incrementally into meltdown.” - The Wire Magazine "Negativland are proud subverters of culture, causing trouble while having fun." - NPR Tiny Desk Concert
