Dangerous Modulations

Melt in to the dangerous modulations of Grace Jones' Corporate Cannibal. The Danish Design School welcomes Professor Steven Shaviro from Wayne State University, Michigan. Steven Shaviro will introduce the open lecture about the modulations of Grace Jones and the video "Corporate Cannibal". March 26th

1 pm Friday, March 26th 2010

Room: Festsalen

Grace Jones has always been a transgressive figure, confounding boundaries between male and female, and between black and white. But in her recent song and video "Corporate Cannibal" -- which marks her return to the arena of popular culture for the first time in nearly twenty years -- she pushes the transformations of her persona to a new extreme, addressing both the radical potentialities of the new digital media, and the increasing depredations of neoliberal capitalism.

The open lecture is an open and free glimpse in to the Weekend Seminar: "The Music Video: Critical Potential and Aesthetic Innovation" hosted by The Danish Design School and Nordisk Sommeruniversitet.
