During the late eighties there was a great American television show called 'Night Music' (originally 'Sunday Night') airing between '88 and '90. Those being years when I was under five feet tall I didn't get to enjoy much of that but now thanks to youtube I'm getting into it. One of my favorite clips I've seen so far is the one below, which features a performance by visual artist and musician Christian Marclay. Marclay is a well known visual artist working internationally now but here we get a glimpse of his unique turntable performance style. It's a wonderful example of the creative misuse of technology which a lot of Marclays work, in both visual and sound media, is dealing with.
