Synopsis

DJ Spooky is a conceptual artist, writer and musician living and working to New York. His articles have appeared in The Village Voice, The Source, Artforum, Raygun, Rap Pages, Paper Magazine and many other periodicals. Miller'sopera as a media artist has appeared in various cultural contexts such as the Whitney Biennial, the Venice Architecture Biennale in 2000, the Ludwig Museum in Cologne, Germany, the Kunsthalle in Vienna, the Andy Wahrol Museum in Pittsburgh, and many other museums and galleries.

Antarctica is the only unpopulated continent that belongs to to no government or territory. Many states claim sovereignty over different layers of the vast continent, but in reality the area between 90°and 150° west latitude is the only part of Antarctica, or rather the only patch of land on the globe, that is not governed from any state.

Paul D. Miller's latest project is a multimedia performance in which the artist aspires to to bring Antarctica into the contemporary imagination by reconstructing it through the use of digital technologies. With a portable recording studio and high-definition cameras, DJ Spooky spent several weeks in Antarctica where he collected the sounds and images of an ever-changing continent. Historical maps, travelers' diaries from centuries past, sound frequencies of crystalline ice, and Earth's magnetic poles are the materials that converge in his sound and visual palette to create a'opera not meant to be a metaphorical interpretation, but a true "experience" of the sound and image of the Antarctic continent. In the age of satellites, wireless connections and cables to fiber optics, Dj Spooky's Antarctic Suite is a portrait of a land made up of geography and complex ecological interactions: a seventy-minute performance that creates a unique and powerful suggestion around the relationship between man and nature.
