In 1978 David "The Weatherman" Wills, Richard Lyons, and Mark Hosler formed Negativland, an American experimental music band, which quickly became an absurd and noisy multimedia universe without boundaries, ownership, or privacy. Negativland's complex chaos of “plunderphonics” poses both serious and silly questions about the nature of sound, media, technology, control, propaganda, power, and perception in the global village. Negativland continue to be pioneers of art in the electronic age, and the medium reveals that any message is all in our heads.
