                   MEDIA DECONSTRUCTION KIT DEBUT

The debut of the Media Deconstruction Kit, created and performed by
Randall Packer and Wesley Smith, will be presented by the US
Department
of Art & Technology and the Digital Media Center of Johns Hopkins
University, Saturday, October 25th, 9:00 pm at the Mattin Arts
Center on
the JHU campus in Baltimore, Maryland.

The Media Deconstruction Kit (MDK) enables artists to appropriate
with
magisterial fearlessness, transforming CNN, MSNBC, and Fox News into

magical images to bring about the systematic reordering of the
senses
through the deconstruction of broadcast media. The Media
Deconstruction Kit reconfigures, disorients, and amplifies the
mis-information of broadcast media into an immersive, sensorial,
multimedia
experience.

The US Department of Art and Technology is the United States
principal
conduit for facilitating the artist's need to extend aesthetic
inquiry into the
broader culture where ideas become real action. It also serves the
psychological and spiritual well-being of all Americans by
supporting cultural
efforts that provide immunity from the extension of new media
technologies into the social sphere.

express
themselves creatively and expand the sphere of possibilities that
are
created when art and technology merge.
