In the new issue of Mindjack:

Feature:

Is Nothing Sacred?
Digital Music for a Digital Age
by Ian Dawe

"Is nothing sacred?" This was the rallying cry, some years back, concerning
sampling. Pioneered by the fledgling hip-hop artists, with its roots in
music concrete, sampling is the art of extracting snippets of music from
other recordings and re-assembling them into a new piece, usually based
around some kind of electronic beat. Theft, it was called. Another phrase
applied to it was "art".

DVD Review:

Hysteria
reviewed by Jesse Walker
"For over a decade, Antero Alli has been writing and directing deeply
personal movies on a shoestring and screening them up and down the West
Coast. He's usually unwilling to release his efforts on video or DVD, on the
grounds that his art is best realized on a big screen and in a
theater...Hysteria is an exception."
