Bill Viola's Tristan und Isolde

This link sends you to the sound clip on Tristan und Isolde, that I wanted to play as part of the presentation. The whole interview is useful, but even the first 41 seconds (which is what I was going to use) give a fairly concise overview of the project. I'm sorry that it wasn't part of the presentation originally - I think they have been updating the site and chose today to shut down the links..!

Laurie Anderson

Dear all here is a link to a video 'Langauage is a Virus' which Ellie and myself will be referring to in tommorrows presentation. Just so you can all gain a further grasp and understanding into her work. In this video Anderson is commenting and scrutinising every day uses of modern language utilising screams of pain and over- dubbed Japense film tracks, thus commenting on the terror of communication as she sees it. Any views you have on this video or any of her work will be welcomed as we will refect on them in our write up.
