Remote Views

A film still from Remote Views shows a distorted image of a Black boy’s face with glitch-style and visual noise effects. Superimposed over the image is a translucent overlay of part of the American flag.

A televisual stream of consciousness assembled from archival footage set in the Black media explosion of the 1980s. A frenetic remix of public access television, video diaries, commercial mass media and citizen journalism sequenced as short vignettes featuring musical and poetic performance, documentation of state violence, political theater, and expressions of Black love.
