Negativland's Over the Edge radio show is about Disneyland this week. Catch it now, as the archived episode only stays up for one week. (But you can buy an MP3 CD of the entire 3-hour show here.)
"Yes, back again with a back-to-our-roots trip through Disneyland. But these family values appear a bit distorted too. Oh well, ya can't win. But this array of Disneyland official ride tracks, narrations, music, songs, announcements, out takes, commercials, and Walt himself is a wide ranging view of everything Disneyland, old and new. Rare stuff included, such as voice over sessions or the barbaric unauthorized remix of Great Moments with Mr. Lincoln. And we all had a swell time and got back to the parking lot Ok."

Chromo11 is an experimental project to find out how thrill 'works'; using the results to design new thrill rides and experiences. Like what? Well, that depends on what you say in your interviews...
Here is a RealVideo about the project, taken from a presentation at the Tate Modern Gallery. I am particularly proud that Mr. Walker wears a Radio JoRT T-Shirt. Therefore, my artwork has been shown at the Tate. Ha-ha!
