Friday I picked up the videotape by the Emergency Broadcast Network at my local alternative music store. It's a marvelous example of co-opting images and manipulating cultural icons. They make a disco number out of Mariah Carey looped into a perpetual scream while Harrison Ford from _Patriot Games_ implores the dancers to "Get down, get down". In the most famous clip, you get George Bush doing "We will, we will rock you" with bomb bursts as the percussion. They also splice in Bill Clinton so it ends up as a duet and demonstrates that the Network is not partisan - they'll take on anybody. Another clip has FDR saying "Emergency", Dan Rather (he shows up a lot) saying "Broadcast", and Bill Clinton providing "Network". Quite funny, although probably offensive to the faithful of any party. Lots of quick edits and short loops, so you should probably take their warning about not watching if you are adversely affected by stroboscopic images. Given the tons of copyright violations, this might not be available for long. And at the very least, you can make a game of identifying the sources of their samples.
