Jonathan McIntosh on Political Remix Video
by rubendiaz
In 2008 we attended Ars Electronica and we got excited after Jonathan McIntosh’s lecture. McIntosh (artist, pop culture hacker and political remix video maker) proposed a conference titled “Building a Critical Culture with Political Remix Video” which inspired us to write our own reflections on political remix and drove us to research on it and follow some of the ideas suggested by McIntosh.
We finally invited him to Seville for ZEMOS98. He told us his audiovisual code source and we also went with him to do it again at MNCARS and CCCB.
As we are working on the idea of remix for the DocNextNetwork, we think it is a great idea to remember his words about his idea of political remix video during the last ZEMOS98 Festival:
